^ I agree, no telling if this guy was a gun control nut or if there's more to the story than what's in the news, but the guy he tackled was a 62-year-old black man, so why did he freak out like that? I like concealed carry better than open, hands down.

Nah, didn't watch it, didn't want to watch it, haven't watched it since 2009. It's always just been propoganda, and this year, it's more like a 2016 Democratic Party campaign agenda while I just want to get through the next two years.

I agree with the theory that gasoline prices have bottomed-out because QE stopped. That, and oil producing surpluses were up, so in a way, it IS the government's credit now just for finally ending QE last fall. The six-year QE waves were artificially deflating the dollar globally.

Well, it turns out that the balls were found to be underinflated at halftime: http://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2015/01/20/nfl-says-patriots-used-under-inflated-footballs/7UlPZI3eotRTBadM89saeO/story.html but then it was corrected and after the half the Pats outscored them 28-0. The better...

Even the very elderly don't have a right to charge at anyone while brandishing a knife. The "force" used here was not "deadly" in almost every other circumstance but if you are 95 years old or a severly obese asthmatic what the cops did at least aggravated their deaths. I don't think the cops...

bump, just because I think these people are right: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/boko-haram-slaughter-leaves-nigeria-feeling-forgotten/ Chad said they are going to send troops to help fight Boko Haram in Nigeria, this is what Boko did...

Wouldn't be surprised to hear that this story is planted and isanother one of the Pat's constant mind games to psych out Seattle. At some point in the game yesterday, the refs switched out a "kicking ball" with a "scrimmage ball" and made a big point of doing so on national tv, so I wonder if...

^No, it's "a prosecutor" could indict a ham sandwich - getting the actual conviction in a juge or jury trial is much much harder because in an indictment, the DA only has to present its case to go further with a trial. I think the GJ in the Garner case already had their minds made up and that...

:laugh: All I knew of James Taylor was that he was some singer from the early 1970s that dated Carly Simon, who sang some song about what a difficult boyfriend he was or something. Knew he leaned left, but not quite THAT far left. And either that is Scott Walker's tweet account or somebody...

Hmmm . . . okay: Seattle and New England in the Super Bowl, which means both must win tomorrow and I think they will. #1 defense in the NFL can shut down even a healthy Rodgers, and Bellachik has Andrew Luck's number.

^ Those "practice targets" are very disturbing. Any predictions as to this verdict? I'm not sure, this case is a lot more involved than just some black cop shot an old white man. I think the whole thing was accidental - the old man was in a nursing home and wouldn't go to the hospital for...

Maybe he meant that Safi should return to Iran where he grew up. I'm still glad he lost on this issue.

I think Duke alumni caught wind of this "idea" and complained. Following the money again, but I'd like to see the day a mosque rings the bells. That's not going to happen. And at least Mormons aren't killing French cartoonists. “It makes me sick to my stomach that there are those in the...

It's too bad that the GOP has no input on Pelosi's appointees and her timing of this could hardly be worse. Andre is a convert to Islam who just won his election on name recognition only. His mother was no better.

Yeah, and she'll probably win unless some bigger democrat enters their primary. This woman is simply awful, the way she hooked up with Willie back in the day when he was more than twice her age. Kam used to be a DA in SF and she was known for being an especially unpleasant person to work with...

Old Rough n' Ready, vetoing some national bank charter.

No, this is a new one to me and the two don't look that much alike anyways. Both these guys' childhoods are pretty well-documented but it is funny to see a conspiracy theorist become the subject of a conspiracy theory.

Boko Haram will simply not leave that country alone - Nigeria was the site of a suicide bomb mosque attack a month or so ago and now BH is razing whole towns. This has all been in the news but it didn't get the coverage Paris did. It's even worse there than it looks.

Yay! My former senator is hanging up her boots in 2016. Rumor is Babs wants to help Hillary in her campaign in two years, but DiFi remains . . . the mayor of LA is reportedly interested in replacing Boxer.

this is a terrible idea, and if Congress thinks this tax increase will go unnoticed, they are wrong. This proposal is a dramatic increase and they say they are trying to replenish some highway fund they are mismanaging. It's a strike (increase) while the iron (gas prices) is hot (relatively...
