Trump Asking For Donations.. Yet Again. Trumpers Never Learn Do They?

I remember that the posts in this thread are the first posts that @Trufan has posted in this forum in over 5 years (5/16/2015). Six years older than the two "agitators" the you branded posted in this forum ( @2wedge in May of this year; @SmashMouth in February). I do remember that the ax that trufan has to grind with Cornel Thompson has been carried by him for a long time. And that everybody who dared to disagree with him was dismissed as having a blind allegiance to Coach Thompson (much like he did here). And which I am sure that at some point soon I will be accused of. I do remember that any issue with a Mustang African-American player he took the side of the player, any issue with a white player he cast doubt on.....heck he even panned Jack Dallas. So I remember that he has an issue with Cornel Thompson. Is it racial? I do know of a faction, small but loud, who opposed Cornel Thompson's hiring simply due to the fact that he was a white man. I do know that he tried to infer that there was racism within the WO-C ISD athletic department. Mind you, this is a district in which the superintendent of schools is African-American, the president of the school board is African-American, the African-American members of the school board outnumber the whites on the school board 5-2. The principal at West Orange-Stark is African-American. Yet, none of them have registered this complaint....and with the current state of media, you know we would know about it if they did! I do know that the "about the kids" has been abandoned in favor lamenting that "blacks can only get jobs in Beaumont, Port Arthur or Orange" talking about "head coaches"......not basketball head coaches, as his attribution of color would be wrong, not ADs as the number of ADs would be wrong, but a ratio that EXACTLY matches the racial makeup of HEAD FOOTBALL COACHES in this area. So, yeah, I think it is entirely reasonable to infer his posts have nothing to do with other sports and that has a lot to do with the fact that a white coach is head football coach at West Orange-Stark.2 points

Murder? Or Self-Defense?
thetragichippy and one other reacted to tvc184 for a topic
My partner one time shot and killed a guy by 10 feet in front of me. The guy had a knife and was coming toward us but stopped. He looked at me and I spoke to him and then he turned toward my partner who shot him. There were a couple of other officers on scene and anyone of us could’ve shot at any time prior to that and it would have been lawful. The hesitation is real and the officer that pulled the trigger made absolutely the correct decision. It is not even debatable in my opinion. I sometimes think back about that situation and wish I would have shot earlier and I’m so glad that I did not. I am happy with the outcome and torn by the decision not to shoot earlier. I am the one that took the officer, who was forced to take a life, to the police station to begin the investigation. I remained composed and professional like my experience and training had taught. I can’t tell you that I didn’t have tears in my eyes though. Everyone handles it differently but it can be life altering and certainly does something to you one way or the other.2 points -
Who has the best chance to make it to state this year from SETX?

I stand corrected. Coach Ricky Ryan would not be happy with me. I did make one revision to your notes, though, in 2014 both WO-S and Newton were state finalists1 point -

They have no clue how to handle it!! They want to talk gun control. Newsflash, this is the scum of the earth committing these crimes, they have no use for your gun laws. All this does is make it harder for honest people to own guns.1 point -

INEPTOCRACY A SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT WHERE THE LEAST CAPABLE TO LEAD ARE ELECTED BY THE LEAST CAPABLE OF PRODUCING, AND WHERE THE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY LEAST LIKELY TO SUSTAIN THEMSELVES OR SUCEED, ARE REWARDED WITH GOODS AND SERVICES PAID FOR BY THE CONFISCATED WEALTH OF A DIMINISHING NUMBER OF PRODUCERS.1 point

Ain’t it funny how biggest DF in the world, who abuses his first amendment rights to spit on other people, makes fun of someone trying to defend that right? What a DF. How much more ironic can it get than that folks? This is what you get when trolls play both sides and don’t have the balls to speak their own beliefs. I can’t think of a lower life form than that.1 point

This is a class action lawsuit. But, it first has to be certified as a class action by a judge in order to proceed. If this fails, it will just be an individual lawsuit. I'm sure Trump's team has filed it with a judge they can count on. This lawsuit should succeed. These social media platforms can be considered "quasi-government agencies" because they have special government protections that 100% private companies do not have. This would be Section 230. It's been stated that they not only have censored conservatives but have censored true statements concerning the Corona Virus.1 point
