Who ordered 247 agents to be there inciting?


Think everyone is curious about this. What’s the likelihood the answer is something boring like, “this is common practice any time thousands gather in and around the National Mall.” :dunno:

Saleh looks like the love child of Dana White and Bas Rutten, so probably; yeah. :lol:

Who was President on 1-6-20?


Definitely Trump. But also 1-6-21. :lol:
Shocked that the only use of “Cottonmouths” was for a hockey team. Would be a great LA mascot.

Why? :lol:
That’s not the paper referenced in the Tweet. Thanks for the link anyway.

Pretty weak conclusions on the authors’ part but not surprising. It’s a super, low-impact journal (2.8).

Holy shite what a catch by Tonges


Turned a game-ending, embarrassing, INT into a potential game-winning TD.
Can anyone find these papers online because they don’t appear to exist in PubMed?

Read my post again.
This board: ‘look at all these rich white people protesting!’

Also this board: ‘wonder who’s paying them all to protest?’
That was the reason for my original answer. At a really basic level, there’s no real argument *against our differences making us stronger. Differences in sex. Differences in educational focus versus physical focus versus experience (trade) focus is necessary for a functioning country/economy. It’s the nuanced part that people get hung up on (marginalized groups primarily).

Dc is a clownshow that pretends to be noble. I'm not opposed to trump tearing the veil off and making them look as much of a clownshow on the outside as they all are on the inside.


No one should really care one way or another… but pretending that this is Trump holding up a metaphorical mirror to the excesses of DC is just :lol:.

Name five differences that "make us stronger".


Are you married to someone the same sex as you?

Are you defended by a military the same sex, ancestry, religious conviction as you?

Are your physicians from the same educational background as you?

Do you enjoy cuisine only from the loco-regional background as you?

Do you only travel to cities/towns with the same racial and ethnic inputs as you?

Do we still believe that our differences…make us stronger?


Of course it does. Can’t really be argued at a basic level. At the extremes, it becomes trickier.

This is why the current culture war of spending political capital on getting the Bible in curriculum (OK), posting the Ten Commandments in classrooms (TX, LA), subsidizing private Christian schools with tax payer funding, banning books (everywhere) sets a dangerous precedent.
