No, state law doesn’t trump federal law. But the states have no obligation or authority to enforce federal immigration law. Or any federal law for that matter. If you cheat on your taxes, is the state obligated to come after you to try to collect federal taxes? State taxes yes, federal taxes no. Wh...

cradle, good to hear that your gun owning friends obey the law. I assume they would continue to obey the law if the law were changed and more restrictive measures were to be enacted, like bans. Or do they just obey the laws they want to obey? Like Pete’s maskless friends. To be honest with you NJ, ...

On March 29th, Texas will open COVID vaccinations to all adults.

The people in Houston never forget it either. For many it’s the worst loss in Houston sports history. The Oilers losing to the Bills with a 32 pt lead in the second half would garner a lot of votes for the worst but as that was just a wild card game and the UH loss was for the championship, gotta go...

No, just the J&J vaccine.

This could go a couple places but thought I’d post it here as the bottom of the article mentions the mayor’s thoughts on treatment for heroin users.

This dangerous, racist movement is being led, of course, by Texas ... a garbage pauper state that receives far more federal money than it gives back in taxes. Must be hard living with all that hatred. Better be careful as your state is pretty close to Texas thus meeting your definition of pauper, a...

Your friend must be in a good spot. My 82 yr old sister in NY has been on a couple lists, making calls for awhile now and is finally getting her first shot next week.

Sorry, somehow I missed those.

Yes I understood. As I stated I’m not arguing the benefits but can you provide cost projections to prove your point or is that a guess?

Using the term "working to dismantle the department" shows how clueless and egregiously partisan this newspaper writer is. OF COURSE language like that is going to inflame passions about the entire subject...in a negative and very harmful way. From the beginning, the whole "defund th...

Despite these tough times maybe we should try to laugh on occasion.

How is the temperature over there? Wondering if things are a little cooler since they moved the event several weeks later in the season. Some years the temperature can be absolutely beastly, over 100°. Your comment about the heat could also be applicable to Houston and my rugby post. The rugby sche...

My wife is a huge tennis fan and she claimed the large family room TV this evening to watch Jessica win her third round match at the Aussie Open.

Hasn’t been a good time to be a Houston fan since Bill OBrien got Gm responsibilities. What’d he trade their receiver, Hopkins, for? A pack of garbage pail kids and some of that old cigar gum candy? Correct about O'Brien but he was a contributing problem before it came to that point. He and GM Rick...

I wonder if he'd like to try pro rugby? The SaberCats said they could find a spot for him, he could keep his 99 and he wouldn't have to move. Of course with his $$ he could probably buy the team!

So much for your ex military making up a disproportionate percent of those storming the Capitol Bldg. Was a BS narrative from the beginning that someone here swallowed hook, line, and sinker cuz, well cuz they're ex military and are all trained to attack and conquer....it never leaves them, they're...

Best cop in USA: https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1359674483393634309 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Et5UxgmXUAMkhCQ?format=jpg&name=small If every cop in Minneapolis and St Paul was like him, there would never have been any trouble this past Summer. Shame that so many of the friggin cops we have ...

Super Bowl streaker. Cop clearly used excessive force and will surely receive additional sensitivity training, de escalation refresher etc.

Got my 2nd Moderna dose yesterday around 11. Hurt a little more than the first one, but we think it was because the dose was colder as it was just pulled out of storage and I had to wait a few minutes for it to be ready. Similar arm soreness to the first dose, much like flu shots I get. I did get a...
