The only witness statement you are going off of is one person who already had a gripe against the kid
Dude. There are six folks injured AFTER the incident you reference. Maybe they could not give a statement, because they were being airlifted to the hospital. You seem more invested than anyone else. This guy your cousin?

If you are going too fast where you cannot see a vehicle stopped, a bike, or a kid on the sidewalk you should slow down and put your phone in the trunk. Goddamn y’all are some shit drivers.Another friend of mine in the Tarpley area was driving home after a gig. It was after midnight, and he was traveling slow. 45mph in a 55mph zone. There was a bridge that you cross after a sharp turn. He said as soon as his lights illuminated the bridge, he slammed on the brakes due to an animal. He couldn’t stop in time, and he killed an elk. He knew dispatch and the sheriff who responded. Both mocked him for thinking the animal was an elk. When the sheriff got there, the sheriff said, “damn, it IS an elk.
Driving too slow is as dangerous as driving too fast. Worst case is too fast meets up with too slow. Don’t be either.
The elk had escaped from an exotic ranch. Totaled his vehicle. He couldn’t even claim the elk.

I was a passenger in a car that hit a cyclist. Biker ran a stop sign, my buddy slammed the brakes, but we hit him anyway, despite traveling below the speed limit prior to braking. As he tumbled into the windshield, I realized I knew the dude.
As a pedestrian, I have twice been bulldozed by cyclists on the sidewalks.

So you guys who've been dealing with country roads and the random county road stuff like wild stock and tractors can't handle cyclist?
You ask questions without the courtesy of answering them?

Given the average walking speed is 3-4mph, do you ever consider walking your bike up that cat 4 hill @midtown? You’d be traveling 33% of your normal speed, and you’re one person. I’m guessing there’s a line of cars behind you, all traveling 25% of their normal speed.

I acquiesced that point. I don't think its smart but it's still legal and therefore shouldn't draw the ire of motorists when someone is legally operating a vehicle. I am irritated by busses, slow moving grandmas, and tons of other people on a daily basis that follow the rules and most that don't. Doesn't make me want to run them over and possible kill someone.
*buses
And bussing.

Rancher is a pos. Livestock and equipment can be replaced.
Just because he drives a piece of shit truck, and hauls shit doesn’t excuse him from driving safely.
That is one entitled asshole.Fair point. Of course, he’s on the road, too. Not everyone is a Big Joe.

Kid needs to be held accountable.
Had a conversation with a rancher out near Tarpley. He worries about cyclists, as they share the road with he and his trailers, and blind curves are a common feature of the Hill Country’s farm to market roads. He said if he ever were in a position where he was forced to choose between his equipment, and livestock, and the life of a cyclist, he already knew what he would do.
So, be careful out there. Lives are on the line.

When I begin to consider moving, to position my wife and I for the climate’s change, I wonder how I can make reliable assumptions.
Yes, the Great Lakes have a fuckton of water.
Any other certainties y’all can think of? -
Does not follow.
I’ve never bought a gun in my life, but likely own more than most on this site. If I owned no weapon, I would obtain one. I have the right to do so, but not the right to do so in the easiest possible manner.
Edited to say that my firearms bore no burden of training, other than that my father required. Our society would not violate its Constitution by requiring training before the sale of weapons. I respect the argument we have the Constitutional obligation to do so.
Further, I respect the assertion there are no gun accidents, only gun negligence. Embracing this truth, as a society, would be a step in the right direction.

Think you missed the guns will solve all problems part. Hey, if you want to throw me into the mud, that's fine, but I should ask since you want to bring that up, should Jack Thompson let everyone get shot at the Church of Christ? Does he love his neighbor by protecting them, or letting the killer live?
I am both a pacifist and a hypocrite. My answer is that one is commanded to love. When speaking about building a more just society, love includes, it does not threaten. When faced with diametrically opposed choices, love protects.
Not as sticky a wicket as you seem to infer. Personal protection, family protection, could possibly boil down to firearms. An inch that has been bulldozed into a mile.

I raged last night after too many beers.
This rape allegation in the news echoes something closer to my home. My youngest attends Johnson, and there are rumors of a sexual assault occurring during homecoming. The social media blowback included the following, a screenshot my daughter received.
This misogyny needs to be addressed, pronto, and with the full weight of opprobrium.

Alright, all rapists should die. No argument.... But I'm waiting for your Messiah to get taken down by his allegations.
The commandment to love your neighbor as you love yourself is an allegation? Nope, pretty sure that’s the agreed upon interpretation of what he said. Too bad it contradicts your guns solve all my problems worldview.

So is anyone listen to the one-Peyton and Eli cast? I would ask why, best cast since Joe and Howard?
Is that because they don’t talk about the game? Sincere question.

A dude once told me, “Don’t eat dog. Once you eat dog, dogs will bark at you.” Claimed to have first hand experience.
