ok, got it.

I have a feeling that the thread is being brigaded from elsewhere

As a true furry should.

Is this that old railroad bridge next to Sandcastle or is it the one on the other side of Homestead waterfront?

Trucking companies do it everyday.

He didnt say that. He said "fuck 'im" I would assume that in this scenario, if you can afford to own multiple properties you should be able to pay the taxes on those properties with whatever revenue streams you had to buy the properties in the first place.

It's not an unreasonable position. If you can't afford the taxes, you shouldnt own the property, sell some till you get back in the black, or increase your revenue somewhere to cover the cost.

Or be like most businessmen and lobby the (local)government to lower your tax rate so you are good.

nice, I'm down to agree on this being the official story.

Oh hell yes. Get you some chipped ham at the deli, cook it in BBQ sauce(islays is the #1 seed), slap that on a bun, and eat it.

Every family engagement with the Pittsburgh side of my family had/has a slow cooker full of that.

Give it another 5 years and conservatives will be arguing for school uniforms to consist of tactical gear in your school's colors, and within 10 they will be arguing for children to conceal carry.

I find it hard to believe that postcards made them change their minds a full 180 degrees. They surely had their reservations(whatever those may have been) to begin with, and the postcards were what ultimately tipped the scales in the state senate.

Hell, the state house refused to vote on it, so even if the Senate had passed it, ratification wasn't going to happen.

Money tends to lead to more optimal outcomes, and based on his crimes, he got plenty of it.

This dude has absolutely no shame. He knows he will get a slap on the wrist so why stop?

Sounds like the younger one was an "oops"

Apologize, pay for a new wheelchair, and then make him do community service somewhere that works with handicapped people. Hopefully it opens his mind up to how dumb his actions were and makes him a little more empathetic.

Yeah, and that difference is conducting an investigation and passing judgement based on what that investigation finds.

> Asked about her racist language toward the owner, she described herself as “emotionally unstable.” She’s dealing with multiple breast cancer diagnoses, Bellew said, and she’s a caregiver to her ill father. She described her behavior as an angry outburst as a result of “being overwhelmed with everything else in [her] life.”

Plenty of people go through cancer, and deal with caring for elderly relatives and don’t go on racist tirades. Those things don’t suddenly turn you into a racist. You are already that way, but do a good job of hiding it.

If she’s honest about showing remorse she needs to expose herself to new people and new points of view to change those deeply ingrained beliefs. But we know she will inevitably end up on some conservative talk piece where she can continue to play the victim and stoke the same old prejudices.

Lyndon Johnson was spot on when he said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

They are already planning on it and it appears they have a way to get a control by testing nearby soils that wouldn’t be contaminated by the derailment.

Probably because he believes there were already dioxins in their soil to begin with. So there's no way to know how much more was introduced due to the derailment.

Intelligence probably isnt one of his strong suits considering he thought it was a good idea to put a bomb in his checked luggage.

The children’s museum is a slam dunk. I’ve been to a couple, and they aren’t even close. We’ve been there 4 times in the last 2 years and will certainly be back again.

Oh they are going to hold out on posting that for as long as possible.

With it being $1,000, that's nothing to a state-wide politician. He probably didn't even know they gave it to him - especially if it was over more than one year and through a PAC.

​

That being said, he's still not telling the truth, which shouldn't come as a shock to anyone.

Horrible situation, but what the heck is up with that title?

Yeah, I honestly can't remember the last policy the party has tried to make a reality besides the 2017 tax cuts. Republicans have to stop fighting culture wars and start winning the war of ideas if they want to win back voters. The average voter wants solutions not complaints.
