I remember how much I hated Crossfire. The Kinsley/Sununu years were particularly loathsome and where I think everything went off the rails. Now everything’s Crossfire.

Great idea. Even when I was really into golf, I rarely watched the PGA. Now all the majors lead to The Open, which I think is as it should be.

I really like the subtle sarcasm here versus the overt snark one sees so much on the internet. Well done!

If Lee was forced to commit suicide by Davis, I could maybe see your point. As it stands, however, you seem to have missed mine.

Re the date: glad to see frederick still doing great things. I feel like he’s going to get noticed more and more....

This is one of the reasons our military is ultimately run by a civilian. Its fine and understable for Patton to respect rommel as a soldier, for example, but that doesn’t mean we name a street after him. I’m not even sure why the army should have jurisdiction on this issue.

Or maybe just choose a form of regular exercise that doesn’t take forever to complete. (Hint: the answer is to go to the gym and hit the weights. A good full body workout, three times a week, 45 minutes to an hour each workout. I’m in good shape and I’ve never run out of good music to listen to.)

Weird, right? But MLK had a dream and lyndon Johnson fulfilled it, so I bet this is really just an isolated incident, not indicative of any larger problem...

Yet another story you don’t learn in (northern) schools. Better to just replay bull Connors boys and their fire hoses so we have someone to feel morally superior to.

I don’t want to go out on a limb here, but it’s almost as if we pay more attention to what happens to white citizens than black citizens.

Yeah, unless it’s an Andy Griffith who grew up in the town, the cop in question is usually someone who wishes his life was an 80s action movie, but couldn’t get hired by a big city pd.

Also white and not making sudden moves, especially reaching into concealed areas, is kind of one of the first rules of how to behave at a traffic stop. I’ve been in this exact situation, meaning I’m an organizational disaster and have, on multiple occasions, had to search my car for my registration like this guy did.…

Except that that wasn’t your original point. That’s a new point, made after I demonstrated how your original point is wrong.

Absolution of guilt is acquired in different ways. If you want the kind that relieves your psyche of pain (or from your god), then go to a priest or therapist. If you want the kind that comes from the person you wronged, however, there are few (if any) ways in which words can make things better and many in which they…

“upsetting someone else’s equilibrium for your own peace of mind.”

While some of the ideas are goofy, something has to be done with all the retail mall space in America and this really isn’t a bad concept (though I have no idea how profitable it could/would be).

Although such uncertainty exists with the 2024 Olympic Games which will occur in seven years, the four-year extension increases those uncertainties

It’s the closest thing to being a “Christian nation” that I can get on board with:

Protesting the murder of black people by cops by joining in the streets to demand justice is entirely different than burning mattresses after a football game.

Each episode will tell the stories of people in contemporary times who believe they are descendants of the imperial family
