Well, since you do seem far more rational than the angry RV, I appreciate an actual Discussion. 1. What I find silly (and so you know I was somewhat having fun with you), is that your first point (I actually agree with on many levels, Police in this country are not all good nor are they all bad, most are just trying to do a job the best they can). I had the feeling that you were coming off as someone who promotes no police, and defends criminal behavior and even murder, but condemns police when lethal force is used. That's a whole different discussion. I apologize if I am misunderstanding that position. 2. You then bring up PCA with almost no reference and not explaining the whole thing, like Chicago refusing to help agents in distress while protecting a federal facility. All of which are within the law. You did not provide an actual example where federal troops are being used to arrest and detain people. If I missed that specific example I apologize. 3. Ice (The 3rd topic in one thread, correct?) So we wait until a known criminal commits yet another crime, murder or rape, before we take action? You don't like how he is doing things, which is fair and right; I fully support you. Do I agree with what he is doing all the time? Nope, I mean I call him the Orange man. But what I am is a person who believes in Democracy, not socialism, not murder, etc I am dumbfounded how we have fallen so far as a society (Both parties to be exact). I never really followed Kirk other than what I saw online. But how the left behaved after his murder is not only disturbing, it's truly sad. Did I think Biden was a fool? Yes, I did, but I never made personal attacks towards him, cracked jokes, or used satire. Yes, I did. But, I also told all the people I know I feel bad for him, and that those close to him should be ashamed, my father had many of the same issues before he died and it sad to see, even sadder seeing people take advantage of him. Anyway, I am not saying what you believe or don't, nor am I lumping you in, which I did at first, to mess around. Thanks for the response, and it's nice to meet you too.

This truly sounds "Unhinged." I see you support free subsidized rent, at least for the Orange Man living in your head.

@JimmySpeaks See my point from earlier, it's really never-ending.....

When I thought I could not see anything more out of line than what RV pushes, you one-up him. Just a few facts, and you can carry on. Exceptions to PCA have always been in place for the protection of federal property and or functions when local authorities are unable or decline to provide adequate security (that last part is critical). Also, the National Guard, if directed by a Governor, falls outside of the PCA. If they are federalized, you are correct, and they are subject to PCA, but again, except for the whole protection of Federal Property, and locals not offering assistance. Are you simply for no borders, no immigration law, and no enforcement? If not, then what is your suggested solution to the issue? Were you enraged when Obama deported millions?

She supplies us with a never-ending level of stupidity that even idiocracy couldn't have scripted. Throw in the anti-everything Crockett, and all you need is some popcorn. I wish the two had a podcast..

The Autopen was the smartest thing in the white house under Biden.

Not the end of time, there seems to be a never-ending supply from a certain group of ideologues.

Silence....... Facts will get you nowhere! You must comply.... Or..... no cake for you....

Still very angry as well, that's cool, I still love ya, The Orange Man is Mean, DeSantis is a Door Knob, Newsome is a Sociopath, AOC is, well, something, and Crockett is just a nasty person. What I do like: Cookies, Cake, Burgers, and I really like French Fries of all shapes and sizes. Oh, and I like Bacon a lot.

Quick overall fix, with no "Free Money" just lost interest. 1. Reduce Loans back to principal, less amount paid to date. (remove the interest, which is what increases defaults and burden) 2. If current on payments, you can deduct 100% of your payments that year on your taxes. Each year till paid off. Interest penalties for late payments. 3. But what about the people who paid their loans back with interest, you ask? 4. Simple, they can get a tax deduction over the next 10 years, and they can deduct the payments they made (on time) over a 10-year period as well. Now, "No free payment or full forgiveness." By allowing the deductions, we inject more cash into the economy, and those who paid their loans get the same benefit. Just my .02 now tear it all apart! 3 - 2 - sh@# whats next - apples - 1 - GO!

Yes, like many of your posts, I appreciate that for all these years, your comedy writing is still top-notch. Are there really people still saying Biden was healthy?

Yes, an old man outside actually doing a real activity is proof of demise. Man, I have missed the Red Viking!

What if, everyone is wrong?

For all you old timers, maybe my single favorite night on the forums ended up in Ray and me heading down the TOM road. IYKYK How many of these guys are still around here? The Night Dreamy Lit the Match (1).mp3

LMAO, I never got you banned. Why would you say such a silly thing? Even when people somewhat agree with you, you are caustic. I find it cute. Anyways, no need to get circular with you. Still laughing that you thought I got you banned. I would never in a million years want to see you banned. You and coach sparky are two of the best comedic posters of all time!

Still the same old BB, you know the point but you are the king of the Straw man...

You are not wrong. I agree that, to some extent, that is true; they may grow out of it, but maybe they won't. We have raised kids basically with two different generations. With our oldest (25), we were young parents. Now with our younger two (11) and (13), we are the older parents. This new group of parents are a massive pain in the ass, and they take helicopter parenting to a level I did not know was possible. We are not, and people think we are nuts, lol. It is fun. On a serious note, though, there is a vast paradigm shift related to culture and age, much like the late 60's into the 70's IMO.

For the record, you said it not us.... - Educators may know "their arena" but only know what they know. They need help to look at it from a different perspective. Engineering (which I don't know anything about) has hard facts; education not so much. It is more philosophical. The analogy does not fit. Not all educators are dopes either.

Is this "The Spladle"?

Me duh....

The current generation, 18-30 IMO is a special kind of dumb. I have a daughter of this age whom several of you are familiar with from the old days. When it comes to the world and what is happening, they have zero clue. I mean, like dense. Just spend 10 mins on social or watch something like love island, and you will see. Side note FL is an extraordinary kind of Stupid! People here are a hot mess.

Whatever Bracket M* was in, those brackets always had soooo much excitement.

Maybe I am off, but I think this statement is accurate. Discuss

I see BB is Still working on winning people over with his "accepting" brand of libralism! Go BB!

1. China Sucks. 2. Apple is a joke and creates vendor locks, which is terrible for the consumer. There is a reason they have been losing market share for seven straight years 3. People, companies, and most political wonks (both sides) are hypocrites - Mic drop - PS.... YOU STILL HAVE NOT CALLED OR TEXT ME! SERIOUS MAN FOLLOW UP OR I WILL FLEX AND BLOW THIS WHOLE UP! (look how big I can make the font)
