  1. Doesn't REALLY fit in this thread, but it involves pervs feeling shame, so here goes. Pornhub pulled out (ha) of Utah today:
  2. I wouldn't say "nothing," as there will be posters here who will argue with a straight face that even though they hate Cruz and would vote for anyone over him, they will not vote for Allred because one time Beto said something that hurt their feelings.
  3. Pasadena CA passed a gas-powered leaf blower ban that just went into effect. It's an additional restriction on top of existing laws that seem to be totally ignored:
  4. Here's my counter-take after reviewing for about 6 minutes. This case is distinguishable from Kensington for one reason - there are over 1500 "Special Improvement Districts" in Florida. Florida moved to strip authority and punish just one - the one that disagreed with DeSantis. Had Florida terminated the contracts of ALL special improvement districts then perhaps that analysis would apply. Kensington would be directly on point had the municipality in that case only eliminated the funding for the firemen who spoke out. Seems like this case Kansas v. UMBEHR 518 U.S. 668, is more on point: Following nonrenewal of his trash hauling contract with county, independent contractor brought § 1983 action against two members of board of county commissioners, alleging that they had terminated his government contract in retaliation for his criticism of county and board. The United States District Court for the District of Kansas, Richard Dean Rogers, J., granted summary judgment for defendants, and contractor appealed. The United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, 44 F.3d 876,reversed, and certiorari was granted. The Supreme Court, Justice O'Connor, held that First Amendment protects independent contractors from termination or prevention of automatic renewal of at-will government contracts in retaliation for their exercise of freedom of speech. Finally, Twitterlawyer's analysis seems to gloss over that the crux of the lawusit is over Florida trying to revoke a valid contract and replace the existing, agreed upon terms with ones they prefer. That's just basic contracts stuff and really doesn't have a lot to do with Kensington.
  5. Ok why don't you tell us why he was fired?
  6. I'm a buccaneers fan and rooting for Atlanta is about the most aggy thing you can do. Just because Bijan is there doesn't excuse anyone here for rooting against the bucs. I will be very angry if I see anyone here rooting for Atlanta.
  7. Does Tucker Carlson like shitting his pants? I don't know, and I'm not saying that he does; I'm just asking questions, here. But what I do know is... I've never been in the same room as Tucker Carlson when he shit his pants and didn't enjoy it... and neither has anyone else I've ever asked. Now, maybe that's just a coincidence. But maybe not. Surely, for someone as well known and popular as Tucker Carlson, there would be at least one person out there who was in the same room as Tucker Carlson when he shit his pants and then complained about having incontinence issues. If so, where are they? I think its telling that no such person has ever come forward.
  8. I'm sorry, are you arguing that legal donations to politicians are equal to under-the-table-gifts to SCOTUS justices? Is that your argument? Or, are you breaking from your party and expressing a desire for campaign finance reform?
  9. Dude is wearing a T-shirt repping the"United States Concealed Carry association" in his mugshot *Chef's kiss*
  10. Come on, there's only so many ways to say "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."
  11. Bet that ban lasts less than 2 weeks before a judge strikes it down
  12. For like the 100th time, I would seriously caution against using accounts like for info related to legal proceedings. These accounts are run by non-lawyers with zero insight into the case. Everything in that tweet is an opinion. You'd be as informed by literally walking up to people on the street and asking for their thoughts. The problem, of course, is that posters take tweets like the above as gospel and then throw tantrums when it doesn't come to fruition; or, use it as some sort of proof that the legal system is corrupt because "Brooklyn Dad Defiant - BLM-LGBTA+!!" said it would happen
  13. Oh man that's gonna really steam some trousers around these parts
  14. I doubt it. Could always try and file a police report to CYA, but he's not going to be arrested for it.
  15. It wasn't me officer! There was a rat in my hat making me do it!
  16. Id take a look at the statistics before using Australia as an example. I'm not sure that's the country you want to use to argue firearm regulations don't work.
  17. Who are you talking to? We're all dead after getting the jab
  18. That's not at all what that study says. It says juicing increases the likelihood of a pectoral tear. Just because drinking and driving increases the chance of a car accident, does not mean that car accidents are usually caused by drinking and driving. Id be careful accusing someone of juicing based on a study you don't understand that followed six subjects.
  19. Yeah, I'm not sure how this would work. NCAA is a private company. Shit, why not pass a law that says Texas schools don't have to follow NCAA scholarship limits.
