  1. I got a couple pretty good after midnight prom stories. 🤗
  2. No, he skipped the driving down to the PD and gave it a go on his door step.
  3. He did provoke it. He answered the door with his gun ready to fire at cops who had knocked on his door who had repeatedly identified themselves. No one ever said he was hell bent to "off a cop". Honestly it appears he was hell bent to get himself killed. Mission accomplished. Honestly, objectively watch the video, because clearly you have not...
  4. I can't. He stupidly provoked his own death...
  5. Are you saying that his reckless actions in answering the door the way he did bears no responsibility on what ended his life? The question I keep asking myself is "Why?"... I understand the human error made by the officer(s). Right or wrong, it was human error. They made a deadly mistake. But the guy who answered the door in that fashion. Why? He willfully and purposely answered the door with his gun drawn seemingly ready to fire. Why? Had he been harassed to the point of fear previously? Was he mentally ill? Was he involved in some nefarious activities that brought him to do that? I believe those questions being answered is very important to this event.
  6. I will say to your point, none of this would be an issue had the correct address been used. I’m interested to know how that mistake was made.
  7. And that's that... Imo, there is too much emotion on top of dislike for "the man" being interjected into the conversation. I will leave it at this: Put yourself in that officer's shoes. Really think about it. Now... what would you really do?
  8. Awesome tool! Dang that's depressing to look at though! 129 days as of today!
  9. No truer words can be said. I have dozens of them and treat them with caution and respect.
  10. I bring up the what ifs because nothing is absolute. But people have actually showed up to homes as delivery persons, service technicians. Not sure how many martians/spaceships are documented burglarizing lately. Ridiculous? Yes, you are...
  11. Much respect, but dude gotta be smarter than answering the door pointing a gun at armed cops. It's as simple as that for me.
  12. Really? What if it was someone dressed up like a UPS guy, but planned to rob your home or just kill you cuz they were nuts? "What ifs", emotion and bias against "the man" don't have any room in this argument. The dude should've realized possible consequences in answering the door the way he did.
  13. I think he will win the nomination barring anymore damning revelations (even though that doesn't seem to affect the Biden clan whatsoever), but I don't know if he can pull off a win...
  14. Exactly. 30 to 45 minutes isn't so bad. My land is approx an hour + depending on Lumberton traffic on 69. I live off Keith Rd right now, and it's only 20-22 minutes generally which is awesome.
  15. I’m actually looking for about 3 acres in Silsbee. I bought 10 acres off FM 420 in Kountze, but it’s really too far away from my job. Looking for a place to build after retirement (if that ever happens, lol).
  16. I agree with 1/2 of that. I would vote for him in a heartbeat, but I do not think he will win. I hate that, but that’s where we are.
  17. Who gave Trump credit? I just said unemployment numbers are very misleading for both the right and the left. It’s a poor barometer of actual joblessness and the economy. Quit being so mad. Your weakness is that your vitriol and hatred for Trump makes you stick up for Biden which isn’t convincing anyone (including yourself)of anything. The majority of democrats don’t even think he does a good job. They, along with many independents, loathe Trump’s style, and that is the only way Biden is in office. Additionally, I would be careful giving Sleepy Joe credit for minority joblessness, because I honestly don’t think he is running the show in the first place.
  18. And that’s why I live in Lumberton…
  19. Unemployment numbers are very misleading (as pertains to both the left and right when they try to tout their unemployment successes).
  20. I'm sorry, but I just don't see this as being pathetic. The porn star thing is past me, but nothing wrong with a hot wife (which I have) and being rich (working on it...gotta quite a ways to go).
  21. From Driver's Ed nearly 40 years ago, I think you should turn into the furthermost left-hand lane (what I would consider the "fast-lane")
