Black Music, at least Black American Music, (Which is the focus of the article), has it’s roots in classical European music, melded with the expressiveness, the “soul” of African music. It is uniquely Black to be certain, but making so much of White America stealing Black Music is disingenuous considering the entire…

CUV option is over 10% WORSE than the sedan version in highway MPGs even though the engine and transmission is the same.

Yep. Tattoo removal is too common now and covering up bad old tattoos is even easier. Change it to your wife’s name, throw up an inspirational quote or just go with some new design.

“Beautiful” and “X3" should never be used in the same sentence.

“These ‘scars’ tell my history which include a dark time when I was in prison”

Pretty certain that he got the tattoos in prison. He was put in prison for a crime committed while he was a police officer. The chronology of that means he did not have the tattoos when hired as a police officer.

This sounds crazy but you ABSOLUTELY CAN cover up tattoos you don’t like. Additionally, not that it’s that surprising, but Jesus Christ, why is this a free man? Wife-beater and MURDERER. Now he’s a successful MMA trainer. Like Kevin Garnett says, anything is possible.

Nah, na na na nah

Which 3-row 8 seater SUV will get 28 mpg highway like an Odyssey will?

Face it, a 3 row SUV is better than any car at moving you and 4 other people and is more enjoyable the rest of the time than a minivan that gets the same gas mileage.

I haven’t driven many SUVs, but those that I drove were not in any way enjoyable to drive. Comfortable and sometimes quick, sure, but they were rolling couches. Not engaging in any way. Like the VW Touareg I recently drove; competent and quick, but what a snoozefest.

I have all of those things and do all of those things. They all fit into a compact hatchback, first my Sonic, now my wife’s insight. Maybe twice a year I have to rent a truck from home depot for $25 an hour but most of those aren’t SUV compliant anyway.

Nobody will see your inherent bro-ness while driving the minivan. The SUV you can jack up and put a massive muffler on. You can have your Salt Life and Mossy Oak stickers along with all your little kid stick family stickers.

I’ve always loved the “need more space for my kid” argument for SUVs. When my sister and I were both toddlers, my dad drove us around in his then-new 1992 Honda Civic VX hatchback. I’ve seen pictures from trips we’d take in that car. We’d take a family trip for a weekend to the lake, and that car would be packed with…

You’re close. One of the dream items would be forcing states to accept concealed carry permits issued by other states.

The rich donor class is the Republican base. The GOP learned a long time ago that a certain segment of the population will vote for them regardless of what they do as long as they dogwhistle a few times at them, but to call these people the GOP base is highly misleading.

I agree Obamacare was a crummy compromise policy that hasn’t had benefits for a lot of people.

“Expanding gun rights”

I have 0 faith that my fellow americans are not going to keep a republican majority in both houses.
