I hate it when these bastards only get captured or wounded costing us taxpayers millions in hospital bills and incarceration. As far as I am concerned, when they are caught in the act instant trial by execution is fine by me. No bleeding heart liberal on this end. I do want to repeat though, caught in the act of the crime. And the crime would have to be obvious and horrific.

Like kneeling on someone's neck for twelve minutes while the victim is handcuffed?

It was 9 minutes 29 seconds, not 12 minutes. If, of course, you were referring to George Floyd.

As to the cop, another cop should have thrown him off. As to the other scenario, I would have to be a fly on the wall. Some crimes are so obviously horrific, the decision would be instant.

So who decides?

God will judge my enemies. All I can do is expedite the meeting.

BR, are you advocating murder yourself? You speak of God but you also speak of breaking one of the 10 Commandments.

No. Especially considering that I am a lifelong Pittsburgh Steelers fan.

Well, I would have lost that bet. What's the mood there? Has everyone come back to earth? That was quite the chess move that desperate duo of Pace and Nagy performed on live television.

I stopped pretty much caring about professional sports about the same time that Rush Street lost its luster.

Sign to resume casino trips, or am I tripping?

I'm looking at some fifth-wheel travel trailers and was watching a youtube video of one that had a hidden two-sided 60-inch television that rises out of the divider between the kitchen and the living room.
It's an interesting idea but the same effect could have been accomplished with a swivel.
Today I looked at a 2016 model. The 2021 model lists at $137,000 but I've seen it discounted to around $120,000. This model was used as a changing room/ break lounge for a production company in Tucson.
They are asking $66,000 but there seems to be wiggle room. Almost everything I see between 2008 to 2016 is in the $50-$75,000 range so it looks like they drop in value quite a bit the first few years but then retain most of their remaining value.

I read that with so many people buying rv's this past year that the price on used ones (and new ones) is at an all time high. It has to do with being cooped up due to covid and people just wanting to get away. Florida said their campgrounds were packed this past winter.

Demand for trailers and RV spots was really strong last winter. Now that the summer is coming all the snowbirds are gone, and thousands of wall workers have moved on their next job. Bisbee's quirky zoning laws allow me to rent out spots for RVs but not to live in one myself.

I read a stat today that claims the number of Americans living full-time in RVs has tripled in recent years.

Nothing wrong with living in an RV !! MY cousin and some family members did for years . Now , hopefully by the blood of the LORD JESUS , she and others are in Heaven !!!
