    Miami is a light years better offense than KC, and him & Hill would’ve been unstoppable. Was really hoping he’d go there vs the cold of KC and their (at times) plodding offense.

    Not even close. Mahomes is leaps and bounds better than Tua.

    Don't get sucked in to an argument with Helobious.

    I never said Tua was better. I’m saying if I was a receiver I’d much rather play for Miami than KC. See below

  2. Summer 2022, I matched with this girl from Austin on hinge. We agreed to meet at the MOD pizza on Kyle pkwy & 35 for our first date (I lived in San Antonio). Ate there then walked around target, WTF else do you do in kyle on a weekday night. When we were done we ended up making out in her car in the corner with the trees of the MOD strip center parking lot and she gave me a handjob. Which normally aren’t that awesome but that one was different. 
     

    So that’s all I really think about when that area comes up.

    Couldn't pause the TV with any other graphic in the background? They had this one up the entire show?

    No, I see you saying “overreach” yet mentioning the democratic process. It’s hypocritical and fucking stupid. No one said you were filing petitions.

    This may surprise you but as population increases, so can crime and jail population. Garza doesn’t fill the county jail. Crazy concept.

    You’re the only one talking about overreach and undoing the democratic process. I long ago said I realized it wasn’t the judge bringing about this petition like I thought at first. Instead it’s a hyper-active on social media crazy woman that’s already accused of stalking 2 people and is wrapped in a legal battle with one of them. Glad you think that’s legit.

    Just because you are elected doesn’t mean you don’t have to do your job. This is the exact type of idiocy that gets us in to this mess.

    Take some of your own stupid medicine. That new law that reigns in rogue DAs…yeah, that was put together by elected officials that also vote in new laws in a democratic process. So, when you blindly and idiotically say “government overreach” maybe your problem should be with them.

    Do you see me filing petitions or calling for anyone to be removed from office? No. All I’m seeing for support of Garza’s removal is emotional pleas and people saying they don’t like how he does his job. Nothing of him breaking laws or doing something improper.

    Even the cries of “he isn’t doing his job” ring hollow to me. The population at the Travis County jail has been increasing each year he’s been in office.

    Garza is the definition of government over reach. There should be accountability and responsibility of his job, office, staff, etc. he is 150% stepping outside of his governmental assignment and allowing laws to not be enforced. 

    He’s in an elected position. He’s accountable to the citizens of Travis County, who just re-elected him in a landslide. Maybe your problem should be with them.

    It has nothing to do with abortion rights. He either throws out cases or gives slaps on the wrist to repeat offenders and violent criminals.

    The Texas Legislature passed a bill Sunday to eradicate much of the discretionary power bestowed upon locally elected prosecutors.

    House Bill 17 would allow the courts to remove district attorneys for misconduct if they choose not to pursue certain types of crimes. The Republican priority legislation was proposed as a way to rein in “rogue” district attorneys in Texas’ large, left-leaning counties who have little appetite to pursue alleged abortion-related or election crimes.

    The legislation will also likely jump-start marijuana prosecutions in several counties that have recently declined to pursue low-level pot possession cases.

    Elected prosecutors have wide discretion to decide which cases they take on. It’s a power that, in the past, was typically supported by law-and-order conservatives — until major Democratic cities began electing progressive district attorneys who turned away from some long-standing criminal justice practices like pursuing strict punishments for drug possession.

    Bschoolprof is correct though, my problem should be with the law, not the judge. Garza may well be a terrible DA, I’m just not comfortable seeing what I view as a government overreach.

    A state law was passed last year colloquially dubbed the "rogue prosecutor law" that allows residents to petition the court system to remove a DA if they, among other things, systematically refuse to prosecute classes of crimes.  The judge here simply heads up this judicial district and is carry out his responsibilities under the law.  You can read more about it here.  

    I know about the law, enacted soon after several DAs said they wouldn’t prosecute women who seek out of state abortions. I’m sure that had nothing to do with it though. DAs everywhere have long had a lot of discretion on which cases to prosecute, not sure why that became a problem all of a sudden.
