Nobody gets to call a mob to DC. Trump told his supporters to fight, just like Kamala did in her concession speech. In fact, she used the word fight numerous times in her concession speech and said the fight isn't over. Does that mean she is calling her supporters to go to DC and try to overturn the results? No, absolutely not. Just like Trump wasn't when he said it. I've already condemned what happened on January 6. It should have never happened.
There is the issue of knowing what the Proud Boys & Oath Keepers were planning & wanted to do. Trump had operatives on his campaign staff that were in communication with the two groups on a regular basis.(Flynn & Stone) He knew up front, that it wouldn't take much to spark the crowd. Sanders had no such foreknowledge of groups in the people she was speaking to, despite the somewhat false rumors about Antifa that were always floated around by conservative media.

You will never see reason. Kamala wasn’t speaking to an assembled mob who she had told for a month the election had been stolen from them. Nor did she mention marching on the Capitol. Nor was her speech made on a day when the constitutionally mandated process of congressional certification was happening. Nor did she try and bring in her own fake electors. Nor did she insult her own political partner telling the crowd to change his mind. Nor did she make her speech in front of violent thugs like the Proud Boys…
I see reason just fine. Frame it however you like, but my point stands. The last two losing candidates talked about "fighting" in their speeches after the election. Both speeches were in front of thousands. Neither were calling for the government to be overthrown. You are asking me to suspend logic and reason to say that it's okay for one side to say it, but wrong for the other side to say it. I don't apply rules that way.

Woah….Ukraine lost that territory because the Biden Admin and NATO refused to give them the military assets they needed to thwart the Russian invasion. Once the Russians controlled that territory there was no hope of dislodging them without NATO boots on the ground and planes in the air. That is the reality. Russia wins a war of attrition. Russia will be in a better negotiating position in two years than they are now. In the meanwhile, thousands of Ukrainians will continue to lose their lives. They are running out of people to fight. As I’ve said beginning six months prior to the war…..either take actions to win this conflict or make peace. We have chosen neither while watching tens of thousands die and Ukraine destroyed. At the end of the day we were cowards not to confront Putin as he prepared for war. We have never had a strategy to win. I pray changes are coming.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahajahajaj dumb.

I guess an actual, legitimate threat from Trump, to start. As I said, I lived through four years of Trump, and Democracy didn't end. I don't expect it to end this time either.

Games of Interest (11.9.24 - 11.12.24) Arkansas Pine Bluff

Very Convincing win yesterday and if we put it up against their game against Cincinnati I believe it is pretty comparable. This is the first game I was able to watch as I had to go to bed around start time of the first game due to the election so early in the morning. I do think we got off to a rough start and early in the game I didn’t really see the hustle. As the game went on it was just off to the races at that point and we stuck them with a hundo. I am excited to see the rest of the season.

Does Kamala gets to call a mob to DC? Do they get to have it out with the capitol police ?

I am not really sure what you are looking for in terms of threat.

Ark PB game thread

How do you ever expect Reed or McWright to ever get better if they don't get anything but scrub time against an inferior opponent? We won going away. Later on in the season, if Reed & Mcwright show any improvement, we'll be thankful that they got a few more minutes against teams like Pine Bluff. If there was any threat of us losing the game, McWright's minutes would have gone down. Everybody got more than scrub minutes except Behrend & Seals. He's preparing us for tough games later in the year.

McWright was 2 of 3 from 2 pt land and if he had made 1 more three he would have been 50% from the field. He took several fouls for us, and made a phenomenal play to recover an alley oop that was overthrown. He was very good defensively, and tied with Odom for the most steals. We had plenty of offense to go around. I'm sure players like Willis will pick up a few of his minutes in games against tougher opponents, but it is wise for him and Reed to get minutes against teams like Pine Bluff, Little Rock, Detroit Mercy, Georgia St. Especially if we are blowing them out. I imagine his minutes will decrease against Missouri St, Loyola, OSU, and UCF unless he show's more against the other teams.

Glad you have no control over the rotation. We will love the depth minutes like this could gain, later in the year.
McWright should have had one more bucket except Behrend was in the wrong place on an alley oop and ended up blocking him out.

And if Obama had sent over troops to stop Putin from taking Crimea, it might have turned into WWIII. Same with Biden sending over troops. You don't have a clue what China/Iran/N Korea's reaction to that would have been. That's why neither Obama or Biden was quick to send over troops. Then we might be having arguments over the funding of a long drawn out battle, and loss of lives. It's not like these moves had no consequences.
