Oso planning to go pro
our constitution is whats makes the US great.
Not if your game is to cause imaginary problems and gum up the works.
It really isn't. Would be far better if it were regularly updated. The idea that a document largely written 240+ years ago is still interpreted today like the 10 Commandments is a poor way to govern.
Totally disagree. Imagine if the cancel culture had free rein for example. The Constitution is what makes us unique in the world and where most would live if given the chance because it exists
cancel culture
Absolutely, it's terrible that some in the GQP tried to cancel Liz Cheney and other Republican patriots who voted to uphold the principles of our great democratic republic.
This thread is objectively awful

UCLA made a great run, but I feel like the idea of them being #1/2 next year is just based on their tourney run. This is still an 11-seed that barely made the tournament and was very close to getting knocked out in the first four. Is anyone mentioning them even in the top-10 if they don't get a bid or come back against Sparty?
They’re bringing in two top 50 guys and returning the majority of their team. Even better if Juzang comes back. Top 5 is somewhat ambitious, but they’ll be a top tier P12 team and top 25 for sure.
Top-25 I agree with. Even top-15 if Juzang is back. But they were 44th in kenpom going into the tourney and had to overcome a 14-point deficit just to play past the First Four. Having them 1/2 is total prisoner of the moment stuff.
.........As Catholics and Christians, we owe this to our fellow persons, don't ya think?
as an atheist and someone who understands a functioning society relies on people helping each other and being kind i agree.
Since the "off-the-subject" part of this tread is the government's ability to compel people to be vaccinated for Covid-19, I'd like to relate a real-life story that played out in my first year out of Marquette.At the time, I was a reporter for a daily in Western Illinois. First job and all. One day, one of our regional correspondents sent in a handwritten note indicating the Westmer School District was attempting to get their arms around how many of their students had polio shots. A short investigation into the matter found that there were quite a few anti-vaxers in Western Mercer County, IL (it's OK if you don't know where Mercer County is -- it's slogan is "It's Worser in Mercer."). Some of us in the newsroom were old enough to remember what polio did to people and all of us were aware of President Franklin Roosevelt's struggles.We called the State of Illinois for reaction. The state's move was swift and strong. The schools would be closed to anyone without a polio shot. Plus, the State sent a DPH official to Western Mercer County to enforce its mandates. The result was that for any child that didn't have clear evidence of a polio shot, they got one. There was never a polio outbreak in Western Mercer because of swift state action.Look, I'm no "Progressive" and certainly not a liberal, but there are certain things the state and federal government do that's in our best interest -- and those of our fellow man and woman. We've wiped out many of the childhood diseases I had -- think mumps, multiple varieties of measles, chicken pox to name a few -- because of public and private efforts to make us free of disease. Problems that made my childhood at times problematic can now be treated with medications. I don't understand the big frickin deal about getting Covid-19 shots. I'm writing this as I am a bit lethargic due to my second Covid-19 shot. It if keeps me from getting this awful disease, saves me and my insurer thousands in treatment costs and ensures I don't pass this crap on to my fellow men and women, the God-love-'em, line me up!As Catholics and Christians, we owe this to our fellow persons, don't ya think?
