But what if we want to invade them?

Not really but it is demonstrative of the point. Rehnquist himself said it was a breach of the 4th Amendment, and drunk driving is still a thing. We have neither liberty nor safety, but we can all feel better because we did “something”.

So sorta like we concede our collective 4th Amendment rights so we can have DUI Checkpoints so we can rid the nation’s roads of drunk drivers. I guess it was a small price to pay to no longer have drunk drivers on the road…..

C’mon man! You’re a SCOTUS guy, police have no constitutional mandate to protect you.

1) No ones coming to help you. 2) You are responsible for everything.

Sure you do Scooter.

When I said if you know, you know, you clearly don’t, that’s when most people with a clue keep their mouth shut.

I think you are oversimplifying Red Flag Laws. I would characterize myself as pro-2A, and while I don’t speak for anyone but myself, I think most rational folks like myself don’t necessarily have an issue with Red Flag Laws, in fact would characterize myself as pro RFL. Don’t misunderstand opposition in implementation with opposition to the methods which are employed. For me, there has to be a hard time limit where the accused, with counsel, may confront the accusations. Indiana has a decent law, that continues to be tweaked. But it still didn’t stop the Fed/Ex shooter, because the Marion County Prosecutor failed to do his due diligence. But sure, what we clearly need are more laws.

My comment about accessing mental health had nothing to do with insurance or payment. You’ll be happy to know I just brought home my latest acquisition, a Magnesium AR upper and lower finished in sniper gray. But the best part is the serial number is my birth year.

Sure, Obamacare fixed everything.

Our experience thus far has been favorable. I would not be opposed to some sort of first half trigger.

Statistically, I know I know, folks who have a license to carry a hand gun commit crimes at a rate lower than law enforcement. But every “solution” to gun violence will only affect the people who commit the least amount of crime. Just out of curiosity have any of you ever tried to get psychological help for someone? If you have you know.

I stand corrected. I’d really be curious of participation numbers.

An IPS school has a 10U Softball team???? I’m calling bullshit.

How dare whites feel aggrieved about being replaced? Those bastards, letting themselves get resentful over us replacing them. They deserve what they have coming. We’re not replacing whites because we love power, we are replacing whites because they are hateful. We know they are hateful because of how much they make us hate-filled toward them. If they didn’t flat-out deserve to be hated, we wouldn’t hate them so much. Our boots stamping on their inhuman faces forever is for their own good.

Buffalo fits the correct narrative.

With all the ins, outs, and what have yous. Tough to keep straight in old Duder’s head. My interpretation is that there has never been a specific law providing for legal abortion. RvW prescribed a right to privacy between you and your doctor. If all that is true, what’s wrong with asking congress to pass a law and get the president to sign it. Or better yet, just allow the states to regulate it? I have an opinion, don’t care to debate it, don’t care to justify it, in general don’t even really care to discuss it. This is just another socially divisive issue and the R’s are too stupid to stay out of the fray. Murdock would have been the Senator from Indiana if he could just keep his mouth shut about abortion, and he couldn’t do it. I have paid pretty much zero attention to this leak, which was clearly politically motivated. Can we all just take a deep breath and wait to see what the court actually rules before we burn it down?

It sure what the answer is. The group that handles BA/SB officials at Grand Park are throwing money at them to get them to come. My SB partner has been going up there and doing BA 20 bucks for a hotel room by yourself, they’re offering free equipment and uniforms to new umps. He gets an extra money in their first game of the day. So this weekend his first game of the day he got $125. All this is well and good, but all they’re doing is robbing umpires from other organizations. My last tournament I had four diamonds going. We were suppose to have a 3-man rotation on every diamond. Due to sickness, not showing up, sending a guy home, by Sunday I was down to two 5-man rotations, with an Ironman on one diamond the last three games. So parents when the tournament director is dealing with stuff like this like every day anymore, he’s probably not going to care that little Suzi got rung up on a pitch that was “foot” off the plate. Tell little Suzy to get the bat off her shoulder, his strike zone has been all over the place all day!

I would venture to guess most of those Baseball games were frosh/C games.

Madison has a new turf field, brand new addition includes a state of the art weight room. I was down there for a softball game earlier in the season, Coach Wilson showed me around the new weight facility, impressive.

Dude you got a problem, I made an off the cuff remark.

Your geography teacher failed you.

Is your apartment complex a gated community?

I was quick to bitch about the current state of affairs, I thought I might share a little glimpse of the reason you do it. Last night I had the pleasure to work a game where the HC was a kid I’ve had a relationship since she was about 8. I coached her in HS, saw her play a lot of games in college, as she was in the same conference as my daughter. She’s currently serving as interim HC as the HC has had some health issues. She is expected to be named HC. One of the highlights of my career was being able to shake her hand at the plate meeting and refer to her as coach. I think the best way for me to sum up the current state of affairs is, sports to me has always been about relationships. The main problem as I see it is the toxicity involved doesn’t foster the creation of relationships. Coaches, officials, and parents need to figure out, everyone is here for the same reason, and ultimately it will be the kids who suffer if we continue down this path.

I no longer work youth football where parents are allowed near the field. Basically only leagues played on HS fields with the parents in the stand.
