I wonder if he is protected from civil liability? Maybe the settlement with the city also settled any further suits against the officers personally? I would think so.

What do you mean, specifically?

I was surprised to see them so high on the suicide list.

What's going on with Belgium?

I'd say it is correct. They were in Germany during the holocaust. They survived by escaping.

Well then you and me are not getting a deal done then. The situation stays as it is now. If you worked with me, we would have a fully secure border. Zero tolerance policy. I'd even give you roving packs of trained wolves. All I'd be asking for is to let Isabella who has been here for 20 years, works...

In this Thought Experiment, leave current non-criminal illegals at status quo, which is the best any of them hoped for when they entered this country. And a path to citizenship for those who serve in the military. But in reality, nothing can work without real border security, not some politician's ...

As machine learning and eventually real AI comes on line, nearly all work will move toward automation. You want to hand the production of your food and other vitals over to something smart enough to handle the entire value chain? Right now we serve each other to get something for ourselves. Most of...

I have two points ad to this conversation. 1: 100% agree that we must phase out petrochemicals as soon as we possibly can. I'd say that petrochemical pollution in the form of plastics (especially) and chemical additives in everything we consume is going to end up being a harder problem to deal with...

I have no problem with a path to citizenship for people who have been here. The government let them be here. They are here working, going to school, etc. etc. Having kids, raising families, all that. What does it serve me to kick them out now? It's not their fault the government let them be here. L...

The fed gov't still thumbs it nose at federal law. And this is why Step One of any credible legislation is ESTABLISH CONTROL OF THE BORDER FOR AT LEAST FIVE YEARS. Not some simultaneous DACA bullshit. Why? Because once passed, DACA is an irreversible done deal. But border enforcement can be comprom...

When you say it is allowed to work this way, that is what I mean. It works this way because that it the way it is allowed to work. Again, I am not an open border advocate. What I am saying here is that this is not a "Republican vs. Democrat" issue. There is not "good side/bad side&quo...

What changes do you think you would need to make to get to the shredded level? Whiskey is a food group for me. When I was living my best single life I got well over to skinny side living on ground beef and whiskey. It was great. For me, that is honestly probably it. Every time I have gone the whole...

Are you one of them fat and happy types? I'm not shredded but i don't make excuses for it. I am absolutely on the thicc and powerful range of the scale. Being fat is nothing to be happy about and with some simple lifestyle changes no one should be fat. It's not rocket science to make some healthy f...

In addition, I just saw an article but did not read it in depth about Covid waves. They just seem to happen and it's not clear why. Cases skyrocket. Then they taper off. This seems to happen regardless how the government intervenes. Is is people self regulating behavior in response to higher numbers...

Eating right and exercising will not put everyone into the shredded zone. But it should keep everyone out of the fat/obese zone. And I think that is where the fat advocacy/body positivity movement runs into problems. It allows people to celebrate habits and choices that are damaging their health and...

Fat people are disgusting and deserve to die. Here is the sliding scale.... fat......curvy (f)/fluffy (m)......thicc (f)/powerful (m)........shredded........skinny........bony Ideal is the thicc/powerful zone. Either end is not a place you really want to be. Females can pull off curvy. Males can pu...

Its' completely ridiculous. Let's take two extremes. Morbidly obese and legit fitness model shape. There is a lot of room between those where a person can live happy, healthy, and fit. You don't have to be shredded with veins in the abs to look good and feel good. But that doesn't mean that being so...

The ideal male physique is powerful arms and shoulders, thick legs, and enough body fat to ensure that the muscles of the stomach are protected and covered. This signifies success to the female species. They instinctually know that a male with this body is well fed and can care for them and their o...

While I know a number of people subscribing to every woke ideology out there, I don't believe the FA movement is real. You have a few mentally ill people out there making a lot of noise, and nobody outside the group publicly supports them. There's no national organization with employees like any ot...

To sum up my points - The starting post/quote is Governor Abbot blaming Biden. Governor Abbot is full of shit. He doesn't care. He wants to distract. This has no more to do with Biden than it did Trump or Bush or anyone. This is how the border works and it is by design. No one on the government leve...

I am not an open border advocate. I also do not believe that all people trying to come into our country are scum. And it is not millions. You might as well be with that attitude. I never said all people trying to come to our country are scum, but the ones who are doing it illegally are. And it is, ...

Gov Abbot is full of shit. I'm not saying there is not a problem at our border. But there has been a problem for 50 years. No one wants to solve it because it is a nice easy talking point for each side. The last thing any republican wants is for it to be solved because they would lose one of their ...
