  1. The best action car movie, Death Race. I've seen it a bunch of times and I always catch something I missed before. Great cast, great stunts.
  2. Also, some crimes were escalated to felonies so that voting rights could be taken away. This tactic was part of the Southern Strategy, and targeted at black males in particular, then hispanic and latin males in the 90s.
  3. Fairfax County police have killed mentally ill people too. It's shoot first and see what's going on later, and oh gee too bad so sad that a mentally ill person is no longer living. I thought tasers could be used. Police need training in handling situations with non-lethal means.
  4. I have the concert on DVD. Blondie New Years Eve Apollo Theatre in Glasgow 1979
  5. Thanks for the invite for next year. I hope to be in Austin with my family! I used to live in Cape St. Claire, my daughter graduated from Broadneck. Last time I visited Parole, I didn't recognize the place! My daughter worked at Tower Records near the Amish market. It's been a couple of years since I've been over there except to drive by on 50. Hope your day was good. I had some invites but wanted to stay home. I was missing my mom and brother today and would have been not good company.
  6. Sounds delicious, Zguy28! Thanks for posting the recipe. I like duck, have never had goose, but I'm with you in liking dark meat best. That's one reason why I got a Game Hen, not much white meat, well not much meat at all really.
  7. Roasting a Cornish Hen since it's just me. Will make dressing, have already prepared mashed potatoes, and make gravy from scratch. I made pumpkin custard last night and ate some this morning. Still too much pumpkin even with the small can. Will have to use half and freeze the rest next time. Happy Thanksgiving to all ESers and family and friends!
  8. Thanks for the review, I am looking forward to seeing this one.
  9. Yes, I will update if I decide to get them. A lot depends on price, now that I am retired.
  10. The solid tire means no more flats. I haven't priced for my bike yet, because I am in VA and the bike is in TX. Looking forward to checking it out.
  11. Has anyone tried Tannus tires, a solid tire?
  12. NCIS jumped the shark when Cote De Pablo left the series. Have checked in every now and then but not the same.
  13. Shooter. Great action movie. I watch it all the time, one of my favorites. One man against the system.
  14. Another call to ban military type large capacity magazines and the weapons that use them, expanded background checks for private and other sales besides licensed gun shops.
  15. No matter where a woman works, she should be treated with dignity and respect. This goes for Fox News as well. And we all know that Fox hires women with a certain look (blonde mostly), which should give a woman pause why she is hired there. The men, from what little I've watched of that network, are very condescending toward the women.
  16. Automatic weapons are not illegal, one must get a special license from the ATF, it used to be $200. I don't know the requirements for obtaining the license. But strictly illegal, no.
  17. We take away a felon's right to purchase and own guns, so there are indeed restrictions on the 2nd Amendment. It's a matter of what restrictions we want.
  18. I'm raising this point because it's what I hear the Right saying all the time, just like you quoted in your post. I personally have a big problem with the "if you have nothing to hide" argument because it's used to dilute our personal freedom especially with regard to search and seizure. Look how the Right-leaning Supremes have eroded that right over the years in favor of the police. My post was using that argument in a sarcastic way. But I see no problem with putting some restrictions on buying weapons that can be used to kill people. And why should non-military people have access to military grade weapons?
