It's inevitable that a name change will come to the Skins. Got both the white man and black man speaking for the Indians about it (they don't give one flat schidt about this) so it's sure to happen.
HOGS is a fun name too. Need some mascot ideas.

… yup, but how often is and has the word of a white person just been accepted? What made this woman think she could get away with this?kramerica.inc wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2020 6:16 pm There needs to be more accountability.
Those who call in false charges need to be prosecuted, like this woman.
And I'd be happy to see financial damages sought against bad cops (and their unions) who press charges that end up being thrown out in court.

We actually did discuss seeing if for a special event, like if they ever made a playoff game again, how much it would cost to bring the Rock in to do that. It’s in fact how The Rock developed his wrestling character, he’s said he modeled it after Cyrus.
And let’s be honest even the most bitter hateful people here have to love The Warriors.

Frkn great clip!
And then,when the crowd is all amped up, the kickoff can sail 20 out of the endzone and tv can cut to a 3 min commercial break in order to sell cheap beer and natural fiber laxatives. And when play resumes there can be two successive penalties, one for a false start and the next for a neutral zone infraction. So after 7+ min nothing entertaining has happened and Cyrus' moment is forgotten. Can't dig that.
If we need that extra push over the cliff, ya know what we do...eleven, exactly.

I just stumbled upon a video clip in my dvr cache of the riots at the G20 in Hamburg 3 years ago.Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2020 11:19 am Rome is, I believe, the longest running hegemony in world history at around 400yrs. We are on around 250 now...
Question is who are the biggest threat to us like the Germanic hordes.
The black clad rioters were indistinguishable from the violent protesters we're seeing in our streets,
screaming & spitting in the faces of police in the US.
...not tolerated by the German riot police, wielding batons & water cannons.
We've just had areas in two major US cities seized by armed protesters who've killed innocent citizens,
while a homeowner in StL is being vilified & threatened with prosecution for defending his home when
protesters broke into his gated community, the same day looters murdered a retired police captain.
If support of the police is not re-established & civil order is not maintained, it will only get worse.
We don't need foreign hordes, we've been breeding & encouraging our own.
