    Is it slow all over ???

    Recovering from a fractured wrist. Happened on Nov 19th. Was cleared by the doctor to go back to work on April 8th, but if I had to perform any emergency steering procedures I couldn't have done them. So the last 3 weeks I've continued rehabbing the range of movement and strengthening. It's far...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Now you're just repeating the same thing over and over. It's clear you don't understand what you read. The full and correct context has been in both articles I posted and both articles you posted. And it's not about the bricks. And, the story about the prosecutor's statement, whether she...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Considering you don't know how old I am, that's a bold statement. And likely incorrect. No, it's not at all. I've never hailed them as objective, though, so if that was a veiled attempt at a shot at me, it was off the mark. In what way? I know they have ratings problems. Is Congress and the...

    If by "him/ her" you mean Ricky and Lucy, no I don't. But I do know that the very first sitcom, Mary Kay and Johnny (1947-1950), had the newly married couple sleeping in the same bed from the very first show. I also know that the house the Brady Bunch lived in didn't have a toilet in the...

    Do you even know the definition of subversive? Aljazeera America is actually pretty good at delivering the unimapssioned facts of a news story. CNN at least attempts to give the facts. MSNBC and Fox News gives facts, but only in the context of giving you your opinion about them, and only those...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Uhm, the rioting in Baltimore is national news. Comments about the riots, especially controversial comments from an officer of the court, are going to be national news, as well. You're the one who wants to see racism in it and are eating it up. The quote was about law enforcement being judge...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    No, violence is never acceptable. No one here has ever said it was. But it is sometimes understandable, particularly when the voice of peaceful protest is continually ignored, as the voice of violent protest cannot be ignored. Yes, mayors, city councils and police departments all across the...

    Yes, I know. A lifetime of watching Fox News can make it difficult to know what is and is not news. It was picked up by the national media so quickly and it made national news because it's news. The Detroit News article doesn't give her complete Facebook quote, but it absolutely gives the...

    That's an easy one. 100 of them. However, while understandable, they are not justified and exonerated. None And yet the police and the justice system time and time again manage to minimize and justify most of their criminal activity. Yeah, because Sharpton and those others are just geniuses...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    P'shaw. Every problem the government throws money at, we get more of it. Hunger, poverty, drugs, education. Remember when radical Islamic terrorists where the equivalent of a mosquito? One could certainly argue that the government itself is largely to blame for the depth and breadth of the inner...

    If you think black politicians and officeholders stoking the flames of racial hatred is bad, that pales in comparison to when white politicians and officerholders do the same thing. Talk about old stereotypes getting reinforced and observers retreating to their comfort zones. Whoowee. Shoot...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Framed in that manner, I'd say you're 100 percent right. Of course I would want them arrested and prosecuted. Rioting is a criminal act that should be met with consequences, same as any other criminal act. But I'd eventually ask why it happened, same as with any other violent crime. People don't...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    It's also well documented that people who would not otherwise break the law, and have no history whatsoever of breaking the law, have been involved in rioting, including seeing fires and looting. Those people did not riot because they were criminals. Those who think rioting can be boiled down...

    People commit criminal acts during a riot, but that doesn't mean they were criminals prior to the rioting, nor that they were rioting simply because they are criminals.
