    Twitter relaxed the rules for verification long ago. Some of our football commits had verification tags in high school, like Ehlinger.
  2. He claims he's paying market rate for it, but man the optics of this are shit.

    Sigh it was nice while it lasted.
  4. That bill saves about $500k every year for the govt.
  5. Mond should consider a transfer after the summer unless Jimbo is actually planning on modernizing that offense. This could just be Jimbo experimenting with the lineups, or maybe Starkel is underperforming in practices. Who knows
  6. Tarp says Starkel and Mond are splitting reps with the 1s now.

    We're in agreement that comments about Hogg's appearance and age are wholly inappropriate. But we should still get the facts right. Hogg does not support repealing the 2nd amendment. Here are his comments about it: Here's his statements on what he actually wants:

    I watched Stelter's interview about the interview. Hogg mis-characterized Loesch's role at the NRA and Stelter interrupted to correct him. It was stuff like that and Stelter sometimes didn't interrupt.

    The Parkland kids' arguments are emotional and rational to some extent. MFOL as a whole is arguing for some gun reform, hell they'll accept any reform. Not all of it is based on repealing the 2nd. But there needs to be some give and take here. Dismissing the kids as props doesn't help conservatives.

    You're severely underestimating the kids. Please, ask yourself what is more likely: that there was a legitimate buildup to this moment after years of gun violence in schools reaching a tipping point, or that these kids are all props for someone's political agenda? MFOL was organized by a variety of people, but it has real roots dating back years and should be viewed as an organic movement. The march took place during what is spring break for a lot of kids. You're blind if you think people would organize one of the largest protests ever just to get out of school for one day. There was a lot of hurt in those speeches from the kids, you could trace where it's coming from too. I said it on the other site (rip), but I expect nothing meaningful on gun reform to happen in the near future. Also I never advocated for repealing the 2nd, so idk who you're arguing with. There's a significant number of people arguing for some reform, and I think it's wise to listen and to understand where they're coming from.

    It's weak shit, man. You'd think people would exercise some decency when it comes to kids. I see no issue with discussing their politics, but clearly that's too high of a goal for some.

    Where is this proof that they're being paid by someone to protest? This kind of stuff is just as bad as the crisis actor and false flag comments. (Edit: my comments were directed at uday) What's more likely is they've experienced a horrific tragedy and it led to them forming an opinion regarding that issue. Their opinions and protests didn't form in a vacuum, there's been a legitimate build-up to this moment. Whether this thing has legs or not remains to be seen.

    - Undermining our constitution? The kids are engaging in peaceful protest. Come on. - Children as props? Again, it's the kids who are running with it. - We've added many amendments, laws and the constitution aren't static. - No Dem candidate is running on repealing the 2nd that I can think of. It's hardly in the top 3 issues for liberals. Gun reform, maybe, but I hardly think it's going to be what they run on.
  15. It hasn't even been up a week. It works just fine for me on mobile (safari). You can also add people to your blocked list in your settings somewhere. I hated using tapa for the shag, so this site is way more convenient, and even looks cleaner to me.

  17. The firings will continue until morale improves.
  18. You can never predict what Trump will do. This is absurdly stupid though.
  19. Trump hasn't approached any policies that make people mad. The tax bill was a while back, and healthcare reform is a distant memory. His disapproval is still holding steady though.
