  1. You better step back on the ledge because the guy making lapel pins of himself isn't going to allow any more elections.
  2. The problem is y'all are all lawyers. All. Of. You. Fucking Lawyers. The lot.
  3. Not fast enough to run track with enough black people to understand we sometimes go and hang out with other kids at their tent. Even my wife, who coincidentally ran track at the University of Nevada(the reason my kid runs track), is laughing at the idea that high school kids don't go to other kids' tents.
  4. You missed the part where my kid runs track too Rex. Lol. You seem a little wound up Rex, You ok?
  5. Religion is the same way. Senseless killings=God's plan.
  6. wrap around Oakleys. Fishin shirt. He dudes.
  7. This might be hard for you to believe Rex but Black people aren't fond of the sun's rays...OR....heavy rain. We aren't going to "socialize outside the tents" in the hot sun. We are going to look for cover. That leads to kids sitting under other kids' tent. Now what I heard is the twins weren't initially there because they were doing exactly what you said kids don't do, which is hang out in another tent. In the police report it also says that a kid from Memorial identified Anthony as a friend of one of their teammates. So he knew a kid from their school, and at least one other kid knew Anthony enough to know of his relationship with his teammate. Since the schools are 7 miles apart that makes sense.
  8. That last quote....
  9. Elmo about to learn THE lesson. Everyone in Trump's orbit goes down except him. https://i.imgur.com/jj3Bzbi.png
  10. and here we go....
  11. Again. Athletes know the other athletes from surrounding schools. My daughter's high school teammate showed up to our volleyball banquet with Jonah Williams on her arm who goes to Galveston Ball. We are in their district so they likely met at..... you guessed it.......a track meet. Both kids are not primarily track athletes. Again, these kids move around talking to one another. Half the girls on our volleyball team are dating kids from other schools. Part of me is wondering if you guys have high school athletes as you don't seem to be in touch with how things go.
  12. We will see. There are a lot of witnesses. Kids don't elaborate well, especially under pressure. You know this.
  13. I know as much as you know. He runs track right? I find it hard to believe that he randomly chose that tent to go to. If he was looking to steal why would he choose a tent that was occupied? You say he didn't know those kids so why would he pick them? Something doesn't add up. Again, this isn't saying he is or isn't guilty.
  14. To elaborate, track athletes run for track clubs just like AAU for basketball and club volleyball. So by 17 these kids all know each other and are moving around at these events. My daughter has now played with kids from Pearland, Dawson, Manvel, Clear Falls, Clear Brook, Clear Lake, Santa Fe, Ridge Point, Dulles, Tompkins, Pasadena, Sam Rayburn, Beaumont, Bridge City, Kingwood, Cy-Fair, Oak Ridge, Jersey Village, Clear Springs, Alvin, St Agnes, Clear Creek, and Klein. Those are just the kids she has played with and doesn't include the kids she has trained with or knows from competing against. Track is the same way and so these kids move around a lot. It is totally different than when we were young.
  15. Yeah. It doesn't even work on my daughter. She says it gives her the ick. She is a super proper, well-to-do suburban girl.
  16. Because Texas track culture is largely all the same. It starts with track clubs for the littles. My daughter ran for Beast Mode til she was 10. Then high school.
  17. So he was just sitting under that tent with a hoodie on and a knife in his hand? Or was he there chatting up a female?
  18. Because Houston doesn't have these same problems? There is nowhere with worse zoning issues than Houston. Doesn't make my description of what happens at track meets any less accurate.
  19. I mean it's self explanatory Jimmy. If other kids weren't coming to your tent why would you need a watcher? Logic is hard in 2025. Anywho, those track meets are where guys try to work their game on the girls. I am not saying the kid wasn't guilty, but said meet was at his school right? So not totally out of pocket for a kid to be cruising for some track girls. Everywhere we play volleyball most of the football and basketball boys are there trying to pick up the opposing volleyball girls. I was at a game this year and a ball bounced over by this group of boys. One of them said to my kid "let me put you on". My daughter laughed and asked "what are you a freshman?" to the roar of the group. Teenage boys are gonna teenage boy. Especially where there are fit girls in spandex.
  20. I grew up in rough areas. I always had something to defend myself with because I knew the dudes you had to worry about were carrying too.
  21. That will go for his defense. If he frequently had it on him and he knew someone in their tent then there goes the premeditated.
  22. Other kids do go and hang out in tents of other schools which is exactly why you have a watcher in the first place. My daughter's club volleyball teammates also run track at other schools. They will go look for each other and hang.
  23. When I was in middle school one random day they brought all the boys into the auditorium. They had officials at each of the exits. They told us if we came down and put any weapons on the table there would be no charges. However, If we got up and tried to leave with anything we would be in trouble. Kids were setting down all manner of weapons. I read the next day that close to 300 were confiscated. True story. That was a middle school. Color me not surprised a 17 year old has a weapon.
  24. Hate to break it to you Tom but Gen X are grandparents. We are the Boomers now.
