re: Indian Congressman wants to conquer our Independence month

Do we have an "American Heritage Month" in India? Let him work on that and get back to us.

Looks to me he thought the guy stepped on his left hand on purpose. He was looking down. He couldn't see what we can see. Either way, no place for that and a wonder it wasn't a penalty (or was it?).

Don't give up your day job. You left out the part where the US budget would be increased by $25-40 trillion over the next 10 years. How does that part work? Oh, and Medicaid is a federal/state program with average of 2/3 coming from fed.

I looked it up. CPS has 300,000 kids that they can indoctrinate. So 1/12 leave school for the real world each year with another 1/12 to start extremism at a very young age. Yeah - no big deal powerfool!

A bit short sighted there know it all. How large is the Chicago public school system? So these extremists have influence over all of these young minds that become even more extreme as they get older and there is an exponential increase in the number of the boogeyman people that in your mind won't exist.

Better question is "why don't you shoot violent protesters"? Wouldn't take but a couple and they would go home. Soros couldn't pay them enough to risk their lives.

Big dude got out of his car yesterday yellin at me. Called me a white bitch. For what? I was letting him go where he wanted in a parking lot while i waited for him to go so i could exit. Lucky for him he didnt come to my window as i had my glock ready to empty. Know your rights in your state. This world is getting crazy.

Don't know your state laws so not sure what he would have had to do for to "empty". But now a days, there are Ben Crumps of the world where you might have been clearly within your rights to empty. But, you also need to consider the cost of defending yourself in the civil suit that is surely to follow. I have an enhanced conceal carry in a Constitutional carry state and a Castle doctrine. All of that would protect me from criminal. You can sue a ham sandwich now a days, though.

re: Being an Ole Miss fan is like…

Being an Ole Miss fan is like…

Try being a State fan and when I did follow NFL, I was a Saints fan. In fact, I watched the first sporting event (I think there was a non sporting event just prior) in the Super Dome. An exhibition game against the Saints vs Houston Oilers and Billy "White Shoes" Johnson. You can check it with AI but I think that is correct.

Here you go: (ChatGPT)

Here are the details:
- Date: August 9, 1975
- Teams: New Orleans Saints vs. Houston Oilers
- Final score: Houston Oilers 13, Saints 7
- Attendance: 72,434 fans
- Occasion: The first sporting event and first football game in the newly opened Louisiana Superdome.

The Superdome had officially opened its doors on August 3, 1975, just six days earlier.

One interesting historical note: The Saints' first regular-season NFL game in the Superdome came on September 28, 1975, against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals won 21–0

re: The collapse of The SEC since NIL only proves how much The SEC was cheating prior to NIL

I don't think that necessarily proves anything about the past. I think NIL places better players on teams that would otherwise gone to the perennials. I think it makes for more parity in the league but unfortunately, it pits future NFL players against future NFL players and we beat each other to death. What NIL has done is it has eliminated the depth that the perennials had, hence, we go into playoffs beat to hell where the Miami's and Indiana's go in full strength because of their patsy schedules.

re: PSA for all X users: the term “Jeet” is now considered hate speech.

Posted by Diamondawg on 10/25/26 at 7:35 am to Ailsa

Who at X has the authority to deem something hate speech vs someone who just monitors things, and unilaterally makes the decision to message or warn someone (I don't do X so I don't know how this works) that their posts are blocked or banned? However, if a large group of people consider it hate speech then I would imagine Elon would allow it to be blocked. May be right. May be wrong, but I think that is the way he is.
