It sounds like you’re trying to make this into a racial issue, which I was not. If you want to argue that black people get treated unfairly by police and this is why she reacted that way, then I can’t/won’t start down that road - I just don’t have all the facts. However, since you asked...

Yes, I suppose I would find it harder to get them to leave. But I think, and I hope I’m right, that there are more good cops than bad cops, and if they came in for a reason they would investigate just that, and not be on the lookout to make trouble for me.

Some very good points. I do believe that not everything is as cut and dry as the rules/law says it should be though, and we need to have somewhat of an open mind as to the individual circumstances. Assuming (and yes, this is a big assumption) that this had nothing to do with race, the officers should have maintained a…

I don’t know the whole situation, so I can’t comment on what exactly they should and shouldn’t have done. And I’m fully aware of my position of never having a “bad” run-in with police. That said, there are plenty of good cops out there that are just trying to do the right thing and protect people - sometimes that…

Hey... there’s a LOT of money in gaming these days.

Because there’s never been a case where a woman was kidnapped and hidden in a house? You don’t think you could’ve eased the concern by letting them just walk through? Not like they barged in with weapons.

So, let me get this straight.... The cops get a call about yelling in the house. And, generally speaking, if someone outside the house is disturbed by your yelling inside the house, you’re yelling too loud, and something may be wrong. The cops get there, and then she answers the door and starts ranting and screaming -…

Fair enough. Kudos if he’s mature enough at that age to be able to properly process that kind of violence. Probably would’ve traumatized my kid at 5.

Why is your 5 year old playing Mortal Kombat 11?

I get this, but watching your daughter sitting on the edge of a pond, throwing crumbs to an eager circle of ducks with a smile from ear to ear on her face? SHE has a feeling that she’s one with nature for that moment, and for an animal loving child, that’s worth giving those ducks a few extra ounces to me.

I, just really don’t understand this. Assuming I’m getting my definitions right, she’s AGAINST the world working together to find common ground and establish a global trade, peace and understanding, but FOR an isolationist ideology which in itself creates more tension globally. Is that right?

I don’t think most of these complaints are legitimate concerns. Seems like they’re more calling out the hypocrisy concerning the Janet Jackson incident. And if that’s the case, good on them.

Some of these comments are amazing. You folks who are bashing Labo - don’t you remember being kids? The joy of building something and playing with it afterwards? That’s what made (makes) Lego magical. Instead of just staring at a screen and mashing buttons, kids are reading instructions, using their minds and hands on…

Nuke the whole town from orbit?

The problem with that paint job is that it’ll start to peel if it’s used. In the case of the Gameboy Color, you can use a transparent shell and paint the inside, maintaining the original matte finish on the outside while preserving the new paint job from wear and tear inside.

I feel like there are two different points here, and I’ll throw in my 2 cents:

So, let me get this straight. Right now, I can find the instructions on the back of the box, tap a few buttons, and off we go. With this, I need to get my smartphone, open the microwave app(?), tap a presumed “scan” button, line up the camera with the bar code, then likely click go on some confirm screen.

This deal is great, but since news of the SNES mini hit (and likewise for the NES mini), I’ve seen so many articles about “building your own retro game system.” They all lead the reader to believe that for a fraction of the price they can have their own retro game system, ready to relive the classics.
