I know police may be “in a hurry” but wasn’t aware that they could excessively speed and run red lights without being lit up. I wouldn’t have had a problem with this had he not taken away my ability to move over to my right. The worst part is how he almost clipped my truck with the aggressive move back in front of me. No excuse, but what can I do? I’m just a civilian motorist trying to drive legally. I still respect the police. Thanks for your input. I can let it go now.

Friday morning about 7:00, I was making a left turn off of MLK, in Beaumont, onto College street heading west. I saw the Beaumont cop sitting at the college street traffic signal to my right. I caught the signal red and was sitting in the middle lane with the cop in the same lane at the signal behind me. Our lights change green simultaneously and off we go. At the top of the hill, I am the only car in my lane with the cop behind me. There are several vehicles in the right hand lane. Speed limit is 30, I look down and am doing 31….ok in my book. The cop is severely tailgating me and I can’t move over. He was so close I could not see his headlights in my rearview mirror. The cars in the right hand lane are going slightly faster than me and with a cop on my tail, I am not about to speed and risk a ticket. We go over the railroad tracks and the traffic in the right lane has moved up significantly. When there is an opening so I can move to my right and let the cop pass, he shoots into the right lane overtaking me and cuts me off, swerving back in front of me. It was very close. I felt like honking my horn and flashing my brights at him, but thought why risk it. He sped on up with no one in front of him now, running the red light at 4th street, never hitting his lights. Maybe he was having a bad day just starting his shift and having to work a holiday. Not my fault. It wouldn’t have bothered me to see him down the road pulled over with a flat. I might have tooted my horn on that one. Was there anything else I could have done? I don’t think so.

Since when do mayors have any control over school districts? Chicagoans……jumped from the fire into the frying pan.

Still early. Only 2 games out. Going to next Saturday’s game. Section 118, Row 21, Seats 9-10. Best seats I’ve ever had. Just out of camera view when pitching. [Hidden Content]

Cherry 2000 ring a bell?

Thought the same thing. When the robot kept aiming back and forth and then shot the dummy, I didn’t realize it was a dummy until after he shot. Just about everything I have owned that is computer controlled has gotten a “glitch” from time to time.

Maybe I should change my thread title to “Terminator”

Didn’t we already have failed policy requiring emission monitoring coupled with state inspection? Seems to me that expensive buildings were erected for such nonsense and eventually, the buildings were sold and emission monitoring was scrubbed. I could be wrong.

I wonder how many of those social workers are willing to go to the south side? They should take up residence there to save on the number of trips.

Sad, you can set a cup with liquid in it in front of a drug addict and them them that if they drink this unknown liquid, it could make them high and feel food, or it could kill them dead immediately. They will drink it.

Please don’t attempt to minimize my post. If you care about “our” rights, then you should care about Trump’s. If one can be violated, then so can we all. Very serious about this.

So do rights. You don’t care attitude is why our rights are eroding.

This says it all. Everything else is meaningless.

Saw a meme that said Anheuser Busch has made more people quit drinking than AA has in the past 80 years.

Kids Rock has a video. Can’t post it here due to “F” bombs. There are a lot of people revolting over this.

Trumps lawyers should seek a change of venue. No conservative could get a fair trial in NYC. However, changing counties probably won’t help. Any you Trump haters would be the biggest crybabies and couldn’t even hold up under all the false accusations this man has had to endure for several years now. You really need to think about how an ex President can be railroaded and have his constitutional rights violated. What makes you think your rights are safe? But hey, that would take looking past your hatred, which is impossible.

Trump has the right to a speedy trial. Since criminals are not being charged in NYC, one would think that this would not be a problem. Like you said, this is not about Justice, it’s about keeping Trump as a side show to the election.

He’s definitely the spark plug of this team. Even if he is in a slump, his presence on the field makes the team better.

I’d rather defund the IRS.

First, let me pull a lefty and question the source. Oh yeah, The Communist Times. Now, let me reiterate that this is what I like about Trump. He comes after everybody. One would think you would have remembered that by now, but here we are. He also wasn’t afraid of anyone, and I mean XI and Putin, the Saudis, the ayatollah, Un…. None of them. Biden can’t even pronounce Putin….. literally. Tired of having this stale discussion with you but you can’t seem to learn.

A lot different for you to call me deplorable than it is for a presidential candidate. I’m sure you won’t see the huge difference.

I think they’re smarter than our President (not mine) and VP. I think that was like 4th maybe 5th grade math.

I’ve heard of grading on a curve, but this one must be the circumference of Jupiter. We are in trouble.

Have there been any childish responses yet. Some people have blockers to avoid adolescents.
