It would have been nice if this was a conversation . . .

As I have said before, I think your motive is to stir the pot in some cases - like this one. I also think another motive is to distract from the facts in some cases - like this one.

Typical: make an allegation and can't back it up because it isn't true. I simply stated that liberals generally like to consider those who are not like them as racists. That is an observation based on fact. Nothing to do with hate. But I think you know that, but have other motives.

Why don't you tell me what I said that was hateful?

You people crack me up! Seems to me like the comment must have hit a little too close to home for you both to be lashing out so. I guess you were telling the truth when you said you don't pay attention to the liberal media.

But in their world it is a liberal fact that every non-liberal white person is a racist.

I loved how, for a few minutes, the sky outside of the rainbow was darker than the sky inside of it . . . how it made the colors stand out even more. I bet that would be cool: all of the pretty with none of the wet!

I got that too! Wasn't it perfect and beautiful?

Yeah, I take selfies of other people.

I also have the Muslim "call to prayer" that I can turn on just to freak people out.

I figure they'll be a lot cheaper this Saturday.

I just went ahead and put one on my phone that sounds like humiliation. It's just easier that way.

First, the idea of leaking supposedly came from the DoJ - again, in hopes that it would ease the "people" into it. Second, the only thing that would not cause issues is if the people who are upset were in the least bit reasonable, which they are not. They see this as a racial thing and only a racial thing. They want punishment, even if there is no crime. They are not interested in justice, only revenge. But I honestly hope that those people get everything they deserve - it would only be fair.

Yeah, I think it might have been. After a few times, I decided I better stop before something happens.

My son (high school junior) learned about the five pillars of Islam, the ten commandments, and the tenents of Buddhism. It leads to a broader understanding of the world at large. I don't see a problem with it.

According to the reports I have heard, the leaks were basically planned to "soften the blow" and as an attempt to ease those out for blood into the reality that either there is not enough evidence to indict, or there is enough evidence to support the officer's account.

I've been getting a redirect every time I have visited here while at work. It would take me to a url-something site . . . I'd just hit back on the browser and it would put me here.

The only reason this situation has become what it is is because of perceived racism fanned by the media. It was never about a cop using his gun - it was only ever about a white cop murdering an innocent black kid in cold blood (or so we are supposed to believe).

But you so rarely use humor or sarcasm, how could anyone know?

That is true. I think MLB should wrap everything up in a nice bundle: Any playoff games, followed within a day or two by the division series (3 games), followed within a day or two by the championship series (3 game), followed within a day or two by the World Series (3 games). The whole thing - back to back to back - done in a matter of days, rather than being stretched out over a month.

You said "seriously" at the beginning of your post . . . Were you serious? I hope not.

In a related, off-topic subject . . . If this county really wants to be relevant, they need to stop going all in on the flavor of the day. Invest in and improve infrastructure, and invest in and support education (including support to tech schools/programs). Those two things will help paulding appear more attractive to businesses of various sizes.

I don't understand that. We have some black pots, but also a couple of red ones and silver ones. I think we have a kettle, but I don't think it's black. We do have a black cat, but he never says anything to any of our cookware.

As for costumes, I think I will go as a 40-something bum. I'm pretty sure I have everything I need here at the house. All I need is a place to go . . . and I bet there's a few people on Pcom that would be more than happy to tell me where to go.

I haven't watched it in a long time, and haven't engaged in any conversation about it this year or any in recent past. If it was really about baseball, it would be no longer than a normal season face off - 3 or 4 games.
