There's not a government funded program out there that couldn't absorb budget cuts with little to no affect to the program.

BG - I sometimes admire your tenacity in debates but your race opinion in this one is disappointing.

Young folks (and adults) fall to temptation all the time. Even more so for those that may not have been raised to know sex is even a sin. I for one can't say I always walked the straight and narrow growing up.

Huge respect for Cuban and Smith.   Heck, how about a Cuban Smith ticket? I'd vote for them.

The recent pattern is to follow the elderly home, bust in, beat them, then rob them.

People, especially young people, make mistakes all the time, including pregnancy. The zero tolerance approach isn't practical when you want to take abortion off the table. Some form of support is necessary.

I believe in support for the needy but not welfare abuse. It's too easy. I think a fare request would be to randomly drug test recipients. I don't understand those that oppose such a requirement. JMO

We expect plenty of pictures

You do know the American Indians are receiving monthly retribution checks every month, right?

There's a difference between a home invasion and breaking and entering. Punks these days are coming through the front door and beating the crap out of the elderly.   20 years minimum

Here's a topic most may agree on, home invasions. Enough is enough when yon you can't sit safely in your own home. There needs to be a mandatory minimum 20 years without parole. The sentence should increase significantly if elderly or children are involved.  the same could be said about car jackings   This isn't intended to start a home protection debate either but I'm sure it will anyway.

No myth. There are no limitations on unprepared food choices. While your grandmother may only receive $50 theirs plenty of single mothers getting over $400 a month. I've witnessed it.

I believe there is a need for some support such as food stamps. I think it should have limits to what it can be used for. No need to provide name brands, t bones, lobster, etc.

I like listening to Roger's messages. As I've stated before, I do not question the bible's truth or accuracy. I do however realize that man and denominational interpretations in some cases can differ. This can cause some to mistakenly question the accuracy of the bible.

Good one. There's a lot of soul sitting on that stage.

Nobody want children to go hungry and everyone thinks the parents should be able to support their own family. So what do you do when parents can't (I didn't say anything about freeloading) and the children suffer. The problem is the extremist in each direction won't look for common ground.

We shouldn't confuse (twist) witnessing with forcing. Jesus didn't force but he certainly invited.

I saw an interview on TV with the local NCAA president who called this a modern day lynching right here in Beaumont. I think that is a huge insult to all past lynching victims.

Day three for a misdemeanor trial?   Looks like the police chief may be in bigger trouble than Haynes is.

It's hump day again. Better late than ever.   [Hidden Content]

Christ never supported sin.

If gay marriage should be acceptable, why not plural marriage? (a little less radical comparison to marrying an animal)

Media manipulation

I hate to see this much time and resources going into a silly trial. I agree she will probably get off.

Not a bad choice considering BISD will probably pick up her legal bills. :)
