You do know that fireman intentionally start small fires to help put out the big fire.

Best rivalries in SE Texas or other places
SmashMouth replied to TrojanWarrior08's topic in High School Football
I guess no one has listed one of the most obvious. PN-G & Big NED. That depends, I guess on what criteria “best rivalries” is determined. -
I respect your views and fully understand your concern. I’m concerned too. But I think that our kids are the least at risk. I think the “at risk “ population (elderly, diabetics, morbidly obese, etc) need to govern their own exposure to the point of quarantining and testing if they deem necessary. The numbers ARE going to go up as we all return to work, to social events, to church. Just like colds, flu, staph infection, STD’s and the like will increase as exposure increases. Approx 36% of all teen deaths are attributable to car accidents, but I’ve heard of no one trying to stop teens from driving. Almost no Healthy teens have died from COVID-19, but everyone seems willing to “shut ‘er down”. This viral disease has a real good PR guy that, in my opinion, has done much more harm than good. In my opinion, this is how we settle both fronts: Please wash your hands. Please stay away from the elderly and the sick. Please limit your exposure to known COVID-19 patients. Please live a normal and full life believing that God gave his only son so that you may have Eternal life. Luke 12:6-7 “Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God. Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.” Now let’s get back to work and everything else.

Do you test them everyday?

No. There is no such thing. There’s no metric to measure it by. There already IS equality where it counts though. Galatians 3:28 Context 25But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 26For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.29And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

That’s so laughable. Reduced to begging, but specifying the types of offerings they prefer. Oughta bring them some liver and onions, tripe and hogs head cheese. They get hungry enough, they’ll eat it!

Not saying I don’t understand your feelings, nor am I saying that Floyd deserved anymore or any less honor than he received. But the Bible tells us none of those men deserved anything! After Job learned that his livestock of various types, his servants, his properties even his children were killed or destroyed, Job had this to say: Job1:20-1:22 20Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, 21And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. 22In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. What we have we don’t deserve including life. It is ALL a gift from God.

Pretty awesome video. Thanks for finding it. So much truth to be taken from that.

I actually don’t believe ANY of them. As far as being liked, that’s not a part of the criteria in my book. As a parent, husband and head of our household, I do things nobody always likes. I do it for the good of the family. Sometimes you gotta be the bad guy.

Sir, with all respect, I referred to it’s point of origin. I did not call it the Chinese virus. I called it the China virus. Just like they had and still refer to Spanish Flu, German Measles, etc. . I mean no insensitivity or disrespect to any Chinese person whatsoever. On the real issue, I agree, if our kids are proven to not be safe, then football or any other sport is not worth the risk. Mr. Attitude is ready to pull the plug on these kids‘ happiness and downright livelihood and freedom with no support for his position. On top of that, he said, “...youguys are telling me that you care more about football then what's going on.” I would not be a man if I didn’t passionately answer his insinuation that I (We) care more about football than my son’s well-being. Thank you.

No. It doesn’t. If a known Freedom of Choice supporter is a member of the Republican Party, does that make the Republican Party an abortion organization?

You’re a silly boy... Let’s just shut everything down forever, right? My son started summer workouts yesterday morning. He’s one of the most important things in my life, and I would give my life to save his. No hesitation. You need to worry about your family and your kids and leave the parenting of my kids to me. Get your head out of the sand (and your butt) and learn the facts. Young healthy teen athletes have almost no chance of serious health issues or death from the China virus. Go spout your crap somewhere else. And leave my child out of your fear driven comments.

Police chiefs are kneeling because they want to appear to be on the side of social injustice reform. Where were they before their towns were being set on fire? Politicians are kneeling because they want your vote. If they are so sympathetic, why weren’t they passing legislation to help solve the problems of social injustice? Drew Brees decides one day after posting about never kneeling for the national Anthem that he was wrong. Does he really think he’s wrong or is he just reacting to the backlash? I have no doubt that you are intelligent and have done quite a bit to better your position both financially and socially. So why don’t you preach on here about that? Why don’t you give others a look at what they can do to help their situation? The problem you said was economics. I don’t disagree. Just as big a problem is the lack of a strong family unit. This may not apply to you, but it is true that the people keeping the lower income people down are the ones who act like they are trying to help the most. Slavery by entitlement.

You and your ideology continues the slavery of our Black communities.

That’s cuz Roger is a punk a $$ Be-otch who knows how to throw crumbs to his mostly black employees while using them to make his billions even at the expense of America. And they think they got to him. Lol. He will allow them to sit, kneel, do the splits, do whatever they want as long as they keep running the ball on that big green cotton field. The wrong side of history, you say? You’re already on it. Pelosi and the gang already took care of that. They give you free food and a little bit of healthcare and tell you, “Relax...you don’t have to work. You don’t have to try hard. You don’t have to take responsibility. Just vote for us and we will give you just enough to survive. That’s right. Go on now. Go cast that vote and fill up that cotton sack...You be a real good boy and we might even let y’all sit in the middle of the bus.” PAMFAM, I’m sure you’re one helluva good guy, but friend, you’re being led down the wrong path.
-
Yeah, but the way I gathered facts, did an apples to apples comparison then laid it all out for everyone to understand, you would have thought they (or anyone for that matter) would have at least given me a like! Lol.
-
Exactly. No disagreement on your point. Just laying out there why someone might not necessarily believe the po po is the one smashing their door in...
-
You’re speaking from the stance of a regular citizen. If you’re a drug dealer or some other kind of “bad guy” or even an informant, for that matter, you may be susceptible to a variety of folks trying to knock down your door...
-
Man, you definitely pointed out the pertinent information, but without an an actual accounting of the incident in great detail, it would be too difficult to award blame. I will say that if this “no-knock” warrant is a real thing, that definitely sounds like a dangerous practice for both sides of the door. If someone busted through my door unannounced and my weapon was close by (which it usually is), I’m going to assume a defensive posture and begin shooting.

Unfortunately CardinalBacker already stole some of my thunder, so I’ll go deeper. Stick with me on this one. These numbers are what I found on the internet, then I extrapolated them myself to come up with some apple to apple comparisons: Population: Whites - 234,379,202 Blacks - 40,610,815 Total whites and blacks - 274,981,017 (W=85.23% & B=14.77%) W on W Homicide 2018 - 6,088 B on B Homicide 2018 - 7,400 Total white and black homicides - (W=45.13% & B=54.87%) So, even though whites account for over 85% of the white and black population, they only comprise 45% of the total same race homicides. Blacks account for an underwhelming percentage of less than 15% of the white and black population, but take credit for well over 1/2 the same race homicides at 55%. To put things in perespective, if whites killed whites at the same rate that blacks killed blacks, there would be about 42,706 instead of 6,088 - more than 700% increase! However, if blacks reduced their percentages to the level of whites, there would be only an approximate 1,055 black on black homicides. So, explain to me again what the real problem is Mr. Bogey Man?
-
I will still watch. I just won’t agree. But you know who definitely won’t be watching? The estimated 350,000 black citizens who have been killed by other blacks in the last 40 years. Does the black community REALLY think that Black Lives Matter?
-
That’s because “Kap” decided to kneel during the national anthem. And now AMERICANS gone hate. Just like he hates the country that gave him millions of dollars and a platform to spread his anti-American views.
-
I understand what you’re saying. But don’t you think that if the black community placed more value on black lives by killing less of each other then it would have an even greater impact than any other action? Is it the justice system or is it the black community that is doing the most harm to themselves? Should we all quit pointing a finger and begin looking in the mirror? Black lives DO matter. So how do we convince black individuals of that?
