I don't consider the government detaining people who are not committing crimes to be protecting anyone.

---

You ARE on here advocating that immigration law be ignored / resisted.

quote:

---

What are you referencing? I don't care how anyone protects themselves from actual threats.

---

I'm referencing the fact that the last admin allowed a flood of immigrants into the country, and now that they're here, you want ICE to not enforce the law. If you support not screening people at the border, then not investigating once they're here...who will protect citizens?

quote:

---

What are you talking about?

---

I want to know what OTHER laws you believe we can ignore. You're ignoring immigration law, after all. As I understand it, we don't get to choose which laws we can follow. Maybe you know something that I don't.

quote:

---

People break all kinds of laws every day without facing any consequences. I didn't say anything about "ignoring" laws. I don't support federal agents patrolling suburbs and cities demanding to see papers.

---

So how are the illegals supposed to be removed? You don't want the law enforced, you want them to stay with zero consequences...are you even REMOTELY FAMILIAR with human nature?

quote:

---

I have never advocated for this

---

I'll concede that you haven't mentioned it here, but given your liberal worldview, I'd be shocked if that wasn't your position. But if you won't support the government to uphold the law, don't be surprised if someone takes the law into their own hands. I don't support vigilantism, but it would certainly be an interesting defense if an accused based it on the "the government failed to uphold the law, no one was left to defend me but me."

That’s what I was thinking. Mexicans ain’t got time for that shite. I saw a crew of 5 put together a prefab barn years ago and I think it took them all of 30 minutes from start to finish

---

My neighbor wanted a pool...but the access on either side of the house wouldn't allow for heavy equipment to get into the back yard. "No problem" said the pool guy...a couple days later a literal dump truck pulls up, filled with probably 20 Mexican guys with shovels...those crazy bastards dug an entire pool in 3 days BY HAND. :dude:

"Oh, Thornton, your wife was just showing us her Klimt."

"You too, huh? She shows it to everybody."

There was a NOPD officer that got drunk and hit another vehicle on the CCC 20-something years back, killing the other driver...I knew the officer through a mutual friend. He struck me as a good guy that effed up royally. It's no excuse for what he did, but I don't believe he was charged or convicted of DWI prior to that. The fact that this Officer has a prior history, and command brushed it off...WOW. As has already been said, well, it's NOLA.

because he waves a Trump flag and wears a camo t-shirt like you

This is the statement that proves to me who he really is...can you feel the condescension?

I'm an armchair activist? OK, I'll play...you're sticking your head in the sand if you dismiss how this is perceived by 18 year old kids.

quote:

Daniels, Winston, Penix, Gonzalez, Brown Jr., David, Waller, Witherspoon, Jacobs, Young, Burfict, all willing to have a dialogue

Dialogue. Great! Now discuss how "having to have a dialogue" with recruits and their families puts Gruden's recruiting effort behind other schools.

Look, I don't have anything against Gruden...but you and I don't get to just dismiss the 800 pound gorilla in the room. It's there, and it's real whether you and I like it or not. For that reason alone, "Thanks, Coach Gruden, for you're interest...but we're going in a different direction." You can beat your chest, or your dick, all you want about whether or not it's fair, right, or prudent...but you do have to acknowledge it. And if you're the LSU AD and say "We're going with Gruden", without addressing the issue, well, wow. Thank God you're not the AD.

ETA: I posted this in another thread...if that baggage isn't a big deal, why hasn't even lowly Division 27 Dildo Valley State hired him? WHY?

quote:

---

it's about the $$$ not what someone said in a text.

---

That was the entirety of my point...some things money can't buy. Do you not think other schools would use that to steer recruits away from whatever school he represents? And can you imagine if a black player actually signed with him? He'd be taken to the woodshed on social media. Unless LSU was offering double NIL money, which we know ain't gonna happen.

Even mentioning his name in a search would be an abysmal failure on any administration's part. It just is what it is.

C'mon, Man...

The entirety of all football, college and pro, hasn't hired him for what reason, then? No matter if the whole email scandal was true, false, exaggerated, whatever - Jon Gruden will NEVER be able to walk into another locker room again and have the team buy in. Suffice it to say, some shite you just don't recover from.

I mean, the fact that even Dildo Valley State hasn't called to gauge his interest should be a huge red flag, right?

RE the "symptoms" listed on the bottom of that flyer...ask anyone who lived in the Soviet Union in the 70's if they had any of those. Chances are they had the vast majority of them.

Why are progressives so effing obtuse?
