    in Wild side of the news

    Posted

    saw this story, than heard about the 1943 copper penny (1 of 20 "accidentally" made that year which all copper went for the war effort & bullets) which was put aside and saved --- now potentially going to sell at auction for &1.7M .... wow ....

    i am on nebo road close to 61 side... so howdy neighbor and we lost power friday but it was back on saturday 2:30 am my son not so lucky he lives in new hope been out since friday and still out we have taken them generators, they are total electric, well water, no fireplace,

     

     

    Well turn and face Nebo and wave, neighbor.

    I can be the middle of the triangle between you, lowrider and lady raidar :)

     

    We still don't have power and I just finished crying in the bathroom. Today is my daughter's 20th birthday I would love to be able to give her power and warmth.

    So sorry to hear! Hope she at least had a nice birthday and you can celebrate big!

     

    Lost power here at around 4pm Friday, back on at 5pm last night.

    Internet working, but no phone.

    I get to clean out the frig today as we lost most of it ..... but at least I have power and water again!!

    Then why did she say "give me the phone?" She could have just started talking.

    In the interview with the REP I saw, she stated she was listening via speaker phone.

    I do not know the specifics other than that. I do know in my house I have multiple phones -- One I may be on, then another (or many) where someone or multiple someones could listen to via speaker phone(s). Might have been an agreement between individuals to listen in only and not respond which I have done too.

     

    Maybe everyone was too shocked to comment or hand the phone to someone else or maybe it wasn't the time or place to correct Trump?

     

    Why would she lie?

     

    Why don't you call the REP who reported the conversation and ask her?

    Ok, first of all, what purpose do you think 'making an example' serves? To deter others from doing something so ugly and stupid, that's what. If this sends the message that such behavior is just simply unacceptable, ever, and prevents someone from harming or killing someone as a result of doing something equally abhorrent and wrong-headed, I think society will have been well served in this instance.

     

    But yeah, lets do get real - I can't believe you are defending people who terrorized children/families who had done nothing to provoke them besides having the unmitigated gall to exist, and pointed a weapon at them while threatening and denigrating them & for what? The color of their skin. That is about as ugly as it gets.

     

    This could have ended badly and I think the sentence was entirely fitting; even better would have been for all involved to be charged and sentenced just as harshly.

     

    I imagine your thoughts on the matter would be vastly different had you and/or children you care about been in attendance at the party.

     

    A straight-up charge of murder does not bring a 7 year sentence in this state. Maybe something like involuntary manslaughter but not murder. Someone convicted of murder might be paroled in 7 years, but that is not being 'let off'. I worked for the parole board in Atlanta years ago and never saw a murder conviction with anything less than a life sentence either with or without possibility of parole.

    Let's not mention the fact that the Judge has sentencing "guidelines" which apply to the charges convicted on .... It was what the "rules" of the state has stated for such hateful crimes.

     

    They got what they deserved and hopefully will think about the "terrorism" they did to those truly undeserving.
