I miss Admiral McRaven and his leadership. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2681237-National-Anthem-Memo-1-6-16.html#document/p1

Please don’t joke about this. They let the players choose their practice jersey colors a few years ago and my eyes have just now unburned.

I’m not sure if this is a joke or not. So I will respond as I see it. To catch you up... someone suggested we create a fund for athletes once they are done playing sports for a living. Because they sacrifice so much. I suggested that person visit the ROTC building to see sacrifice. Then you come out and say athletes come from underprivileged families like Colin Johnson and are above everyone else who break an economic cycle. And all kids in ROTC have silver spoons in their mouths and are living in the lap of luxury for sacrificing themselves for their free education. After all, they have a guaranteed job making $40k a year as a 2ndLt after graduation. Look, I get it. Athletes have to sacrifice more. Like attending autograph sessions out in the heat and being away from their families over the holidays at a second/third tier bowl game. They even have to go to children’s hospitals sometimes and smile and put up with sick kids and stuff. Other students, like ROTC kids don’t do shit extra. They just punch the clock and get a free education. And don’t even get me started on sacrificing their bodies for that “free education”. Military people don’t sacrifice even a fraction of what athletes do. Have you ever ran competitive track and field? Im in awe at what risks to their health they endure for our benefit. Just so inspiring.

You should hang out at the ROTC building and see what those guys/gals are willing to risk to get and education.

Have you ever sang The Eyes? If so, I assume you are racist then?

Do you not follow Texas baseball? They play an HBC series/game every year.

If we all sang the song for the last 20-30 years that makes us racist? Or are we racist if we sing the song from this day going forward? I’m just trying to figure it all out.

Workswithweed is Morgan Freeman? No fucking way.

Where were the hell were the cops on this day? Make me ragey. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8366533/amp/George-Floyd-moved-Minneapolis-start-new-life-released-prison-Texas.html The final straw for Floyd came after serving five years in prison in 2009 for aggravated assault stemming from a robbery in 2007 where he entered a woman’s home, pressed a gun into her stomach and searched the home for drugs and money, according to court records. Floyd pleaded guilty to the robbery where another suspect posed as a worker for the local water department, wearing a blue uniform in an attempt to gain access to the woman’s home, according to the charging document. But when the woman opened the door, she realized he was not with the water department and attempted to close the door, leading to a struggle. At that time, a Ford Explorer pulled up to the home and five other males exited the car and went up to the front door. The report states the largest of the group, who the victim later identified as Floyd, ‘forced his way inside the residence, placed a pistol against the complainant’s abdomen, and forced her into the living room area of the residence. ‘This large suspect then proceeded to search the residence while another armed suspect guarded the complainant, who was struck in the head and sides by this second armed suspect with his pistol while she screamed for help.’ Not finding any drugs or money at the house, the men took jewelry and the woman’s cell phone and fled in their car. A neighbor who witnessed the robbery took down the car’s license plate number.

When do you start to hold the liberal city council or mayor for signing off on these budget request items? Does the police chief get full, un-checked power to buy whatever he/she wants?

I’m not fine with it. But disbanding the entire police force for what 4 guys did, seems like overreacting to me. I read what the city council is recommending. They want to put a lot more cameras up around the city to enforce traffic violations and just generally keep an eye on what the community is doing. That is a great idea in my opinion.

I agree. We certainly don’t want to see any overreacting.

Oh good. I thought a lot of the cops would quit or retire starting tomorrow. Glad to know they will stay in their jobs for another year.

You might want to have the new ideas considered and vetted before defunding the department. Lots of early retirements and officers quitting to go to other towns/forces starting Monday. Whatever the ideas are, the better be shovel ready.

No

Then get the fuck out. Adios mofo. Go find somewhere else to live.

Fat lives matter.

You seem like a great parent.

Who makes up the blue ribbon panel of fact-checkers for Twitter?

When do you think the S&P gets down to 2000?

I wonder what Jussie Smollett thinks about Amy Cooper's acting?

He was wearing this shirt. Would have happened to any of us.

How fast will it take Chelsea to work a plea deal to Testify against Sutton?

What did he do during the campaign? Did he only realize interference on Election Day? I guess he was waiting to see who won before caring enough to levy sanctions.
