Two of our top 4 picks in the 2021 draft were spent on defense. The #18 pick to me was the pivotal pick because I think adding Jaelan Phillips to this defense will energize a pass rush that improved last year with the addition of Emmanuel Ogbah who led the team, and also the emergence of “AVG” Andrew Van Ginkel who really came on last season. Keep in mind Emmanuel Ogbah had 8 sacks through 9 games last season and finished with 9, so 1 sack in the last 7 games. There’s a reason, opposing teams focused on Ogbah because Shaq Lawson wasn’t getting it done. So now we have the young pass rusher we need and in exchange for Shaq Lawson, we received ILB Benardrick McKinney. Don’t underestimate this move. As much as I believe drafting Phillips was so important to our defense, I think trading for Benardrick McKinney was a big step too, though not as much as getting Phillips. Consider that Elandon Roberts is rehabbing from a knee injury very late in the season (Game 16), we needed this. In addition, McKinney will be the perfect inside backer that will continue to allow #55 to be all over the field and we’ll now have a guy who can be productive against the run and can also chase down plays to the sidelines. In round 2 pick #36, the Dolphins took who they believe to be the starting FS opposite SS Eric Rowe, Jevon Holland. Holland will be given every opportunity to win that job as good ole Bobby McCain was let go.
I think our defense already had a very promising trajectory, even before the Lawson/McKinney trade and before the draft. I like our young, strong defensive line with DE’s Christian Wilkins and Emmanuel Ogbah and NT Raekwon Davis. Ogbah is the elder statesman at nearly 28 while Wilkins is nearly 26 and Davis is only 24. AVG will be 26 at season’s start and Jaelan Phillips is 22. These guys are just going to get better, and make no mistake, Jaelan Phillips is going to make this defense better. He will be a guy that must be accounted for and when there are multiple guys on your defense that fit in that category, that’s when defenses feast. I think Phillips is going to have that impact on our defense. If AVG can improve on the good work he did last year, our defense can be a real force. He played in only 46% of the defensive snaps and managed 5.5 sacks and 10 QB hits in addition to nearly 50 tackles. If he can earn more playing time and increase his production accordingly, watch out!
The secondary was already the premier unit of the defense and hopefully Jevon Holland can elevate it even further. Last season Bobby McCain played SS and played the majority of snaps there. This year Rowe will be playing SS and it’s expected that rookie Jevon Holland will play FS. Holland may also play some slot corner and nickel corner, a job Nik Needham handled most of the time last season. With two excellent cover corners in Xavien Howard and Byron Jones, this may be the best CB tandem in the NFL. Howard is the ballhawk and playmaker while Jones is your typical shutdown corner. Howard started and played in all 16 games finishing with an incredible 10 INT’s. Jones started and played 14 games last season and totaled just 2 INT’s, but as I said earlier, he does a great job of shutting down the receiver he is responsible for.
I honestly can’t wait to see this defense on the field. If Phillips lives up to the hype I’m bestowing on him this defense can be something to see. We so desperately need that player that opposing teams must pay extra special attention to and I can’t remember the last time we’ve had that. For some perspective, last season was the first season in which we accumulated more sacks on defense than we allowed in quite some time. We had 41 sacks and allowed only 34. In 2019 we allowed 58 and got only 23 of our own on defense. Still think the O-line didn’t improve??? I had to go all the way back to 2009 to find a comparison even close to last season. In 2009 we had 44 sacks and allowed 34. Our +7 from last season was impressive, imagine if we make that even better this season . . .
GO DOLPHINS!!!!
Finsmob Unleashed 
Taking office at age 29, Ocasio-Cortez is the youngest woman ever to serve in the United States Congress. She has been noted for her substantial social media presence relative to her fellow members of Congress.[6] Ocasio-Cortez attended Boston University, where she double-majored in international relations and economics, graduating cum laude.
the right wing media says AOC is crazy 24/7 only because she scares them. obviously . shes a double major from Boston U, crazy people dont graduate cum laude on double doctorates
thats quite an accomplishment,
and i hate to admit it, lol well maybe not , but AOC got elected twice as many times as trump did, with no rich daddy loan to help her. she did it from the hard way, a self made woman that got elected twice. she double majored in elections too, lol
thats something that other politicians have never accomplished, before the age of 30, obviously the other politicans werent as smart and hard working as she is
*correction, double majors, not double doctorates
She’s not self made, Trump is 100 times more self made than she is, but you wouldn’t know that, because your media outlets only report what they want you to hear.
Look no further than Google for the proof of that, but if you need more why didn’t MSM report on Hunter before the election?
so trumps daddy didnt give him a loan, and AOC rich daddy did? lololololololol
yea right, ok, SMH
Trump made a bunch of money in business, but last thing would call him is ” self made.” Did you know his Dad was a really rich NYC real estate developer?
If you want to believe that okay. Many people who voted for her don’t even know what Memorial Day is about.
why are You worried about her voters? they dont need You, they voted for HER
Why are you worried about a congress woman in NYC?

I’m surprised nobody here has mentioned that Nayib Bukele (President of El Salvador) has made Bitcoin legal tender in his country. First country in the world to do so. This made world headlines yesterday.
I’m a big fan of Nayib Bukele, but not because of the Bitcoin news.
i did read this yesterday, but figured the room had enough bitcoin news for one day, lol
but yes, this isnt the first country to do this, many poor and corrupt small nations have currency that has collapsed, and they use the crypto as a reserve currency, because it has value, when their currency does not
I hear ya, but we’re not talking about a reserve currency… we’re talking about official legal tender.
Do you think this will spread across the world? Personally, I have no idea.
im not sure it will spread around the world, but it has spread to many small countries
it starts off as a crypto currency / currency backup, or reserve currency, then eventually the nations currency either collapses or is on the brink of near collapse, and then Crypto as legal tender is the only option left, besides total starvation and misery
some countries have such horrible inflation they cant afford to buy anything, except crypto, lol what to do
what would the USA do if the dollar collapsed? there really isnt anything supporting it, other than our military might forcing other nations to take a piece of paper with dead presidents on it
the dollar hasnt been backed by gold for a very long time, and everyone seems to think we can just print more and more and more, and solve all the nations financial problems,and the dollar will hold its value? lol ,,,and SMH
the dollars value has eroded over a long period of time, 200 years plus, what if it went much qucker all of a sudden, what would we do?
studying the great depression, we see what happens when the dollar and the banks collapse
we have our answer, people will do WITHOUT for a decade or so, maybe longer if No WW2 pulls the nation out of it

That is some serious Cool Aid right there
Trump did go to military school though. Those can be tough. Must count as the hard knocks part.
Bone spurs
he did pass the camera picture TV woman man cognitive test, lol
lets give him an award for that
Why are we even talking about Trump? He’s old news
True that
Why do people bring up Trump every time someone has issues with someone else? It’s like the same thing I used to hear when I was younger. When I heard people debate Rep/Dem issues I often heard what about Nixon? Two different subjects. Can anyone stay on point anymore? SMH
Because the Republican Party is turning into a cult of personality where it is all about one man as opposed to its core values
its quite alarming really, Paul Ryan was correct in 2016 that the GOP needed somebody besides trump, his lies and BS are destroying the parties integrity and democratic values
“Some” of the Republican party. I have no part in that and have no desire to ever see Trump represent the Republican party ever again.
Pretty much the way it is Ken. Trump did a hostile takeover of the GOP.
Both parties are cults, that’s the problem. I just called out MTG and AOC and who is defending one or the other? I call both sides out, some others not so much.
I know people who held their noses while voting for Senator Bob Menendez who has a lot of ugly baggage. But they voted for the greater good in their minds. What is the greater good? Deception and lack of morals? I don’t get it. Vote the scoundrels out! Stop being so lockstep within a party. We’re being played.
You want #WOKE, this is it.
lol, he is becoming irrelevant, maybe that is why he bashed bitcoin, he made the news again
Trump is the kingmaker in the GOP and if decides to run will get the Republican nomination for 2024. Who other than Biden is a more powerful political figure right now? My way of saying get why he comes up.
maybe right now, but the election is years away
but BOTH parties need to come up with better quality candidates, hopefully someone that cant be sold and bought like biden and trump
the people of this nation, ARE the nation, and control the labor part of the means of production”
does anyone think Jeff Bezos can deliver a million packages a week by himself? the power of the people need to get represented in the WH
we dont need anymore corporate presidents, we need a people president, or the nation will continue to be run and destroyed by the mega rich

True but the truth is the party is fracturing. Right now the pro Trump faction holds the power but that may well change in the next couple of years
Fracturing is better than sinking on the SS Trump
Yes but if they fracture too much they won’t be a viable party. As much as I affiliate with the Democratic Party it is important to have 2 viable political parties. It is an important part of the checks and balances that is fundamental to our system of government
it will change, the longer trump is off social media the better for the nation
trump is becoming more and more irrelevant as the days go by, he may be an afterthought by then
there is nothing gained by being loyal to trump, he is disloyal, and is not in power , even if he was loyal to be handing out favors
what they want is trumps base, the ones that are so stupid they send him their credit cards to get pulverized every week, lol
You like people being silenced?
Don’t think will change soon. Trumpists have taken control. Only Q is how small the GOP becomes because of that.
Biden is president, and the house and senate are democratic controlled
and You claim trumpists are in control? HOW does that work?
Of the Republican Party David
oh, ok, thanks
Ken – I don’t really care about the Republican party. If they’re fucked enough to stay with Trump, they get what they deserve. He won’t live forever anyway. This would be his last run no matter what.
whos in control of this nation? the actual answer is not either party, its the corporations that buy and sell the parties to do WHATEVER they want to do
Money, greed, corruption runs this nation, its called capitalism, that sounds better, right?
Money, greed and power are not unique to this country. I actually we have a pretty good country to live in despite those evil nasty millionaires and billionaires
Capitalism has been hijacked, Brah. Not enough checks & balances, too many greedy people, and the democrat party has taken over BIG BIZ for the sake of POWER.
We’re beginning to resemble the CCP, in all honesty… a hybrid mix of capitalism/socialism. NOT GOOD, and not compatible to freedom-loving people.
One can’t honestly compete in this hybrid mix, whereas one can (as we’ve been able to in the past) in an honest capitalistic society.
BOTH parties are to blame for destroying our once, relatively pure capitalistic system… and the politicians in both parties who have been there forever march in lockstep: NWO, elites, uber-privileged, controllers… whatever ya want to call them. They are in cahoots with one another to keep us divided.
Sorry you feel that about our country. I for one am proud to be an American and I am quite happy living here.
Capitalism is at an all time high. You’re never going to stop the global economy. Now it’s about keeping freedom involved.
Maybe my Cards will actually compete today. We’ve been in freefall for two weeks.

Thank you, David, for your reply… and I agree with ya 100% on this topic.
The way I see it (JMO)? Crypto-currency will either become the currency of the NWO, or we’ll go back to the ‘gold standard’… with several BIG wars determining the outcome.
Can’t keep printing money, we saw what happened in WWII, and IMO, the war was the only thing that got us out of the Great Depression… not social spending programs like FDR’s the “New Deal’. Can’t spend one’s way out of this, regardless… especially when so many foreign entities have bought up our debt.
Imminent war is in the forecast… sadly.
if it werent for FDR new deal, My father would have perished, it was the ONLY work they could get, and the only food they had to eat
before the depression and new deal started , my grandfather was a train conductor, but then the depression hit, and he was murdered for his job, and some of his children died of starvation
my father was one of the surviving children, thank God SOMEONE in government, represented the starving citizens and helped them in their dire emergency, he saved some American lives
whats more important, a life? or a dollar? we need to get our priorities straightened out if we think a dollar is more important than a life
And it really all goes back to… WOODROW WILSON. Probably the worst president we’ve ever had, truthfully.
agreed that WIlson was HORRIFIC, wow
he used to play the KKK movie called the birth of a nation at the white house, er, um, i mean
the white supremacist house
the ONE thing that trump said was true that i can remember, is he talked about how the government was a swamp, but then he lied about draining the swamp.
he brought in more mud, nepotism, and reptiles to the swamp, but that failed to drain it, lol
but yes, the government IS a swamp, a corrupt, corporate puppet that will do ANYTHING the corporations pay them to do
That’s so ignorant
Mike E, you’re the perfect example of someone who thinks for themselves and will bail on nonsense even it’s the party you lean towards supporting. Lots of people can’t do that, calling out a bad representative might hurt the greater good. The absurd meter is at an all time high.
Where is Bat and Rock for the ‘blow it up!!!!” mantra? 😉
If Trump is the Republican savior, it will implode by itself, no other pyrotechnics necessary
Also, pretty damn sure you think for yourself as well. Blind allegiance is a bad approach.
lol, true that
Tim – I haven’t spoken to Bat in forever but I’d bet he’s still backing Trump
thats too bad, hope he has a speedy recovery, i always liked Bat, lol
Wainwright just had a 4 pitch inning. You don’t see those very often.
Wow, you certainly do not. Impressive, and also a bad approach of hitting by the last batter
We’ll probably follow it up by giving up our lead this inning. Our pitching has taken a dive lately, but that’s ok because we can’t hit for shit, so it all balances out, lol.
So what I’m seeing here now is, we’re all realizing what humans are. Another species in nature doing what any other species would do if it could. We’re at the top of the food chain as far as we know. Not in all instances, but I don’t know of lions, whales or sharks enslaving us.
We all need to truly look at the greater good. We’re off kilter as a society and it shouldn’t be this way. We’re allowing extreme factions to control the dialogue. It doesn’t represent the majority of the nation. It yells the loudest. We’re all focused on the negative. A bad place to be.
You know why Trump wanted to build that wall?…… To keep out people who were willing to risk it all to come to the USA to have just some of the advantages people born here have.
Last I checked no one was talking about policies to prevent people from leaving. Cause no need.
he wanted to get the votes from the people that are afraid of losing their white advantage, and to help send taxpayer funds to trumps cronies
it worked well on both of those counts, but the taxpayers and military got screwed over for a failed project, and infrastructure was ignored.
obviously, the wall was doomed from the beginning, it never worked,
it failed to stop immigrants coming across the border, into ports, airports, coastlines, or the canadian border either
its an unworkable solution, to a problem that nobody in the government knows how to handle.
but this nation has always been a nation that took in people from ireland, scotland, italy, and many other nations, who were facing prosecution at home
David — was talking about how blessed we are to have been born in the USA.
May be true, but in CA they have policies where you can leave, but you’re going to pay for 10 years believe it is.
Dems stand for make the US California, if that doesn’t say it all nothing does
Are you saying that a person who lives in California who wants to move out of it has to pay the state for 10 years after they do? Never heard of such before. Think would be unconstitutional actually. And you should tell Dog about that. He just moved from CA to Arizona.
N.Y. moving on to face the Lightning. I know the Lightning are a good team, I don’t know the first thing about the Islanders.
Yeah just watched the last 5 minutes. The Islanders were built by Lou Lamoriello. Nuff said! The guy is unbelievable.

————-
Woodrow Wilson was a truly EVIL person. Between his outright hatred of minorities, he also had a hand in eugenics at Ellis Island. The Nazis and Margaret Sanger (Hillary Clinton’s mentor) loved this.
The KKK was formed under democrat leadership, and Robert Byrd was a big member. Joe Biden was famously friends with Byrd. And if I ever hear another Biden use the “N”-word ever again, there’s going to be problems.
Brah, I can’t believe you support these racists. The dems are the party of racism.
that was true years ago, but now the democrats are embracing diversity, have a black woman vice president, and the republicans are doing everything they can to be as racist as possible NOW.
the birth of a nation movie that wilson played, was instrumental in the resurgence of the KKK, and let to the Tulsa massacre, the Ocoee massacre,, Jim crow laws, and many other massacres across the nation, because the black people wanted to exercise their right to vote
republicans to this very day, are trying to make it harder and harder for minorities to vote, i would not support that party either
did you hear trumps comments on critical race theory a couple days ago? SMH
why do so many people not want minorities to vote? they have a constitutional right to vote, but were murdered for it then, and many get denied it now
We’re going to have to disagree on what ya just said above. Hey, it’s alright if ya feel a certain way, just as it’s alright if I feel a certain way. I just can’t understand how differently we feel about this matter.
IMO, CRT (Critical Race Theory) is Marxist: It’s racist and it’s anti-AMERICAN. It preaches hatred of other races to our children, and I can’t dig that.
so you think its ok for employers to discriminate against minorities? yea, we have to disagree on this, i dont believe that white supremacy should be the law of the land
Anyway, Jaelan Phillips signed and he’s a big part of where this team wants to go. We needed another talented edge rusher. Yes he’s a rookie but he really does check off all the boxes. He’s a prototype. I’ve said a few times he reminds me of DeMarcus Ware – long, quick, speed to chase and versatile.

Now THAT is cryptic, sir!
There’s a legal way to get in, and any wall built is not prohibitive to the legal process.
They have walls in other countries like Mexico: if you come across their border without proper access, you sit between 4 walls with bars at the entrance/exit, under lock and key.
AND, it can take YEARS to get out of their jails. They don’t have a speedy legal system, of course (like we do).
it can take along time for immigrant children to get out of the damn cages and warehouses too, SMH
i really hoped Biden would do something about it, this is something that obama, trump, and biden have no clue what to do about
It wasn’t clear was talking about the blessing to have been an American. Didn’t think it was cryptic at all. And if was….. just explained the point.
All good! I hope my reply wasn’t cryptic, either. Yes, we’re BLESSED to be Americans, man.
We must follow the LAW. That was my greater point. Border-jumpers don’t get to be legalized because they came ILLEGALLY. There is a legal process.
I wasn’t talking immigration in the least. Pointing out that this country is so great that a whole lot of people want to come here.
i have been to Mexico before, just drove there from Brownsville, lol
id rather not fill in all the details, but locks and keys were no where in sight where i went
i figured the best way to SEE what was really going on down there , was a road trip with pictures, lol
the border is far from secure, but the border patrol is tasked with covering too large of an area to make it more secure
Then why doesn’t Kamala just go down to the border as Biden had instructed? Simple task.
thats a good question, where do you think she is RIGHT NOW?
take a guess,,,, ill give you a hint, its south of the border
She got booed in Guatemala, greeted with signs that said “GO HOME, KAMALA!”.
Guatemala, El Salvador, and Belize (the ‘Triangle’) do NOT like this Biden administration, man.
Kamala was tasked to go see the problems at the AMERICAN/MEXICAN border, not to travel to foreign countries like Guatemala to find said “root cause”.
To date, she has never visited the US/Mexican border.

Kind of like FAs want to come play for our Miami Dolphins now! 😀
i have traveled the world many times, circled it 7 times total, lol
and with the exception of shanghai, everyone else has it much worse than America
Shanghai is the rare exception, coal built homes , homes built with bricks and straw with no bathrooms are common in many countries
but i have never been to Dubai, UAE, or Kuwait, they certainly are better off than the average Americans, because we gave them our money for their oil
RIGHT ON, and I can’t disagree. So why did Biden shut down all of our pipelines? And then, GREEN LIGHT Russia’s oil pipeline, which Trump had put sanctions on? Who’s in bed with Russia?
We were FINALLY(!) energy independent for the first time under Trump. Now, we’re back to paying the Middle East for our energy. And with that, comes the funding of terrorism.
We just keep repeating the same mistakes over, and over, and over again.
i didnt get a chance to answer before you went to bed, but your questions wont get answered in the sources You have been using imo
i can tell by Your verbiage that its derived from mostly hate and blame the other party media people, , for example Your response to CRt as marxist values, when its clearly isnt
and the response about Byrd, etc, as proof that modern day democrats are racists and GOP is not
the only thing that bothers Me is you feel like talking like we have tonight is divisive, i certainly did not want that, nor did i think either of us really argued or anything divisive, we just were conversing and i wish You the best, always ! peace out
I’m almost certain this is a turrets work relief program!

“WE WANT TAMPA” shouted the Islander fans as the final seconds ticked off the clock. And who can blame them?? They had just finished a butt-kicking of the team that WAS called “The Big Bad Bruins!!” I get a certain amount of perverse pleasure any time a greater Boston pro sports franchise BITES THE DUST!! So give the Isles a huge pat on the back!!
——————
NOW, back to reality. The NYI will be underdogs to the Bolts. Last year Tampa Bay beat the Isles in 6 games to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals. They did this without their captain, Steven Stamkos. Well kiddies, Stamkos is healthy now, as are all of the Lightning’s leading players. And, to top it off, Tampa Bay is 5-1 in ROAD GAMES played THIS playoff season!! That’s NOT to say the Bolts are a lock to beat the NYI. Far from it. But, barring a major injury to a key player, you’ve got to like Tampa Bay’s chances to repeat their winning performance against the Islanders.
—————
On the other side of the continent, I fully expect the VGK to win their series against Colorado and advance to the Western Conference Finals against Montreal. And THAT series seems over before it starts to me. NO WAY Montreal can consistently stop the Golden Knights’ firepower. I see a Vegas victory in 5 games versus an over matched Canadiens team.

If I’m right, the match up everyone wants to see in the Stanley Cup Finals will become a reality. The defending Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning vs. the Vegas Golden Knights!!

Y’all have a great evening!

MF, so the critical race theory, which includes police reform against minorities like George FLoyd, and other racial issues, are ok, but democrats are racist? cmon guy, both parties are guilty,
but now one party embraces diversity, and the GOP does not, why support the GOP and its discrimination? did you know that trump was convicted for refusing to rent to minorities?
he broke the law, and discrimated against AMericans, and Floyd was murdered by a horrific cop
i do not understand why anyone would want systemic racism and death to US citizens, if they dont like their skin color.
i certainly wouldnt support the racists that do the minorities dirty like that
but you stated why do i support the democrats for being racist? lol
i dont, im an independent, that leans to the left because i feel All Americans deserve what the constitution spells out for us, and all deserve a fair shot at having a home for their families, or walking down the street without a Chauvin murdering them
I DID say that both parties are guilty, man. I hear ya, but I simply don’t follow Marxist values.
Yo, I’m audi! Have a great rest of the evening, David!
marxist values? so you dont know what critical race theory is then, i got ya
its not called the critical marxist theory, its the critical RACE theory.
look it up, it has to do with systemic racism, discrimination, police brutality, etc,NOT marxism
David you buy into all of these lies the left feeds, and probably go to Google to verify, but don’t realize they just take you to the one-sided sites.
If the left isn’t racist why do they back the racist group blm?
Alright, I’m audi. I really DON’T want to talk politics, being it’s most divisive. Tried talking football a few times tonight, but nobody bit… oh well.
We can either learn from one another, or we can bitch at one another until we’re red in the face… the latter is what generally happens when talking politics or religion. I’m trying to keep it cool.
Speaking of cool, I hope y’all stay cool in this heat/humidity wave many of us are experiencing… it’s SAVAGE!
take it easy bud, but it might be beneficial to do a few minutes of critical race theory research one of these days and learn what it is, for Your own benefit
still love ya and respect ya, i just am more independent than You as far as politics go
Cards are finally going to win a flippin game. Hallelujah
We should start trading politician trading cards like sports. LOL
i find it sad that trump got many to believe his lie that America was energy independent, when that clearly isnt the case
the only way the nation will become energy independent , is when it can CONTROL and produce its energy, with no imports and no influence from world markets
of course, being in the markets, i know for a fact the nation has not been energy independent, the oil sector of the markets were seriously effected by world events,
and a google search shows the nation failed to produce the oil the nation consumed during the trump presidency, and it reveals how russia and opec rocked the markets during the last 4 years, despite his narcissistic bragging and lying about it
You just proved my point…Google search
thats the best way to find out the nation was never energy independent, cant rely on trump to be factual or honest
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree…new text messages show Hunter using the N word when talking to his lawyer
hunter isnt in the white house, he isnt part of government

“The San Francisco 49ers had a rough Monday of organized team activities. Offensive lineman Justin Skule tore his ACL, and safety Tarvarius Moore ruptured his Achilles during the same session.”
“Those setbacks coupled with running back Jeff Wilson Jr. going down to a torn meniscus inside the team’s locker room on May 20 was more than enough for head coach Kyle Shanahan.”

Boy have the Niners have been snake bit the last few years with injuries.
They must be feeling your wrath😉
They used to have training camp in Rocklin. Drove right past the field mid 90s, without even knowing what is was, then remembered it’s the 49ers camp
I’m for anything that moves that pick up lol
Yeah, Sierra College was a pretty unassuming place for a team like the Niners to practice. I’ve got some cool memories of those training camps.
My dad took me out to Rocklin in the early 80’s to watch them practice. I got to meet Montana and Clark who were both signing autographs at the fence. That is when I started getting into football, and the Dolphins playing in the SB that year is the reason I’m a Dolphins fan. 🙂
Anything to oppose my father
Kamala greeted in Guatemala to signs of mind your own business. Even they know how fake she is
what a joke, she got criticized for not going, then crticized when she goes
You DO realize that Nobody can solve the corruption in guatemala, honduras, and el salvador? and yet You expect harris to do it in a couple days? why?
the previous admins didnt solve it, left it to the next. and of course, expect it all to be done by june? if only anyone could change a corrupt leader in a foreign nation, if it were so easy, it would have already been done along time ago
She got criticized for not going to the border with Mexico, not for going to Central America, she criticized for going there to, anything to avoid the real issue.
We can’t contain our own corrupt leader, no one expects they’ll contain the ones in Central America
David – I feel the need to correct you on something. Fred Trump or Donald Trump were never convicted for not renting to black people. They were sued and accused, two different things. If you want a little history, it’s very much like a slave owner a racist. It’s just the way things were in that time, in that era. There were white neighborhoods and there black neighborhoods, but rarely did the two mix. That’s just how things were. Do you not recall Biden saying he didn’t want his kids to be in non segregated schools because his kids would be growing up in a racial jungle? Is Biden a racist? It was just how things were back then, so when people say there hasn’t been progress in that regard, I say they’re full of shit. I think our country has come a long way since then, but critical race theory and BLM doesn’t help the cause on bit.
unbelieveable You would criticize CRT
i guess if it doesnt effect You, fuck em?
and yea, you are correct that trump wasnt convicted, my bad, but he had to pay a settllement,
he is still a racist and wouldnt rent to minorities, and had to pay money for restitution
i dont really like biden, he sucks, but thats a HUGE improvement over the orange pedophile racist liar that got fired last november
but i DONT want to talk about ronald pedophile donald all day
I don’t want to talk about Trump either, he’s not worth my breath or time. On the other hand, teaching kids police bad in school is fucking way out of line. It has nothing to do with whether it affects me, it’s wrong to teach kids to be anti-police. Simple as that

Anyone see the stuff they have against Fauci? they are saying he funded the wuhan lab to make the virus
LMAO
lol FOx is not a reliable source, thats been proven
they were started by rupert murdoch, to be a conservative spin network showm they are not real news, and were never intended to be
and ingrahate is a liar, thats been proven also
why attack peoples health? does ingrahate want us all to di or what, shes a tool of the devil called murdoch
amazing how someone on fox can say whatever they want, and some gullible people take it as fact
these people dont care about You or Me orob
they have a hateful agenda and dont have time for us
I thought ORob only got his news from Wiki but I guess he selectively listens to Fox
There’s a CNBC video up there too . . .
stick with CNN Ken, looking at your blindfold is much better than looking at your face!
I am sorry you are clearly better informed lol
it doesn’t matter if you’re biased or not, certain emails have surfaced, Fauci is in trouble, i’m sure both the left and right would agree
ingraham is asking will faucci admit erro? lolol what the heck, will trump admit error when he talked about inhaling bleach, calling covid a liberal hoax, and tons of other lies while Americas were dying? faucci wasnt the leader of AMerica, trump was tasked to be our leader, and failed us all
thats why he got fired in november, Fauci had nothing to do with trumps incompetence and Biden taking his job away
“A lot of what you’re seeing as attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science, because all of the things that I have spoken about, consistently from the very beginning, have been fundamentally based on science,” Fauci told NBC News’ Chuck Todd.
fauci is correct, trump, and many in the GOP, prefer propaganda and lies , to science and facts
anyone that hates science and facts , needs professional help and is bad for the nations leadership,
we need to embrace science, truth, and morality to be a great nation IMO
it’s funny how i try to convey something that’s in the media, and the auto response around here is to question the source and deny without any research of your own.
i don’t know if what they are saying is true or not but i do know everyone is saying it. regardless of the news source do you think they all have a conspiracy to attack fauci and create a false news story?
i find that hard to believe.
it’s the brainwashing by the left that causes that response, so you should look in the mirror at your brainwashed self.
google rupert murdoch and find out on your own time
murdoch is the brainwashing guy, and he fooled you, lol
Said MSM, so it must be true
Fox News surely is right leaning, but at least they report both sides of the news.
Omission reporting isn’t telling the entire story, something we see far too often from the MSM.
Seems every day MSM gets a memo that says the buzz words for the day, then all the parrots use the same key words.
Fox News often shows a clip showing these ass clowns colluding
Cav Kong,
I support you efforts, but when Casey Jones is driving that train high on cocaine, he’s not about to watch his speed.
“Inhaling chlorine bleach would be absolutely the worst thing for the lungs,” said John Balmes, a pulmonologist at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, and a professor of medicine at the University of California San Francisco. “The airway and lungs are not made to be exposed to even an aerosol of disinfectant.”
“Not even a low dilution of bleach or isopropyl alcohol is safe,” Balmes said in a telephone interview. “It’s a totally ridiculous concept.”
ill believe this doctor over anyone on fox, and ill be better off not inhaling chlorine bleach, than if i did inhale it, lol
The fox news channel was created by Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch to appeal to a conservative audience, hiring former Republican media consultant and CNBC executive Roger Ailes as its founding CEO.[10][11] It launched on October 7, 1996
Fox News’ official position is that its news reporting operates independently of its opinion and commentary programming, and it has denied bias in its news reporting, although former employees have stated that Fox ordered them to “slant the news in favor of conservatives”. During the presidency of Donald Trump, observers said there was a pronounced tendency of the Fox News Channel to serve as a “mouthpiece” for the administration, providing “propaganda” and a “feedback loop” for Trump, with scholars suggesting that the channel came to resemble a form of state TV.
David – Who gives a fuck? Just because every other station on the dial oozes a liberal slanted agenda, you can’t stomach one channel that goes the other way?

I’ll just keep on asking you questions in the comments then lol
LOL – I can roll with that
word is out that Xavien Howard is not happy with his $75 million dollar contract.
i think Howard is an awesome corner, whats not to like? but it sucks when players wont honor a contract, that THEY signed, SMH
Howard would be crying foul if the team refused to honor his contract, but its ok if he does it, got the message
what do we do with howard? trade him or pay him whatever he wants?
as much as i would love to see him come back, i really dont like players that wont honor their contracts they signed
I agree, but find it shocking, that you feel that way, because it’s contrary to the left leaning ESPN.
Guess, when it comes to the Fins politics take a backseat.
Maybe there is hope for us yet🤪
im not the left leaning espn, but i find nothing wrong with them either
a contract is an agreement between parties, its legally binding, and its just not right for parties to sign their name to a legal binding agreement, and then want to back out of it IMO

“I don’t believe in evolution, I don’t believe in that type of so-called science. I don’t believe in evolution. I believe in God,”
What would she do if she found out God is evolution and science? Does she not believe in math, technology and medical advancements either?
————————————————————————-
Cant have one without the other for me, neither disproved the existence or validity of the other. I think that people all in on one side is probably misguided even though my faith has me certain in the existence of God, still i have often questioned it because as i have said the existence of God cannot be proven or disproven, and i think that’s to the point of God’s intent. Belief is of free will and without question and coming to your own conclusion, you really aren’t a believer, you are a follower. You believe because your parents believe, because their parents believe, etc. My start in religion was being introduce to religion as a kid, but i found my faith as and adult because i did question and i did ponder.
People who make this kind of bold statement against science because of religion, i dont think they are strong enough in their beliefs to have the argument, so they do this slam the door move so they dont have to try to explain their side. They are scared to agree with the science as if that’s completely disagreeing about the existence of God and i don’t see why they would be scared, If God is the ultimate being, the divine creator, what is a few specks of life he created, disagreeing going to do to him? I mean if you cant believe your God can sustain a bit of questioning, then how supremely power is he really?
I have questioned and pondered, as well, and have come to a different result.
Faith is believing in something you really have no knowledge in. It is blind, imo.
Thats why its strong. Religion is weak, faith is strong, and its because you believe it at your core. Those that regurgitate religion are not people of strong faith in most cases. I sorry if that has left you, i would assume at some point it was strong in you, but again, free will and you coming to that conclusion is equal to my experience. I don’t believe I’m right, i just have the blind belief that its the right thing for me. I admit its blind, i have no definitive proof to prove it.

And I just saw this: it’s pretty incredible when ya think about it…
——————————————————————————————–
To that point, ya have to add in Amari Cooper, Calvin Ridley, Julio Jones, and Robert foster as well, the latter hasn’t proven to be the top receivers the other have or most likely will. Alabama, while better know for churning out defensive players, has been one of the best WR schools in they past decade.
“Setting aside Tua Tagovailoa’s admission that he didn’t have the best grasp on the playbook last year, the Dolphins tried to make things a lot easier from him by vastly upgrading his weapons to address what had been a subpar wide receiver group. They signed Will Fuller and then used the sixth overall pick to select the electrifying Jaylen Waddle. They also drafted an NFL-ready lineman in Liam Eichenberg, and provided the young passer a mentor in Jacoby Brissett. And finally, the Dolphins passed on drafting another quarterback, indicating they are totally committed to Tagovailoa.” — Judy Battista, NFL.com
Why do they always leave out the fact that we hadb2 covid opt outs and Preston out half the year?
They make it sound like the 2020 WR corps going into 2021 was horrible.
Parker, Preston, Wilson, Hurns, Bowden…would’ve been better than subpar.
Think maybe they don’t do their homework
Nothing wrong with a player thinking that they have out performed the contract they are currently under and trying to negotiate a new one. It would be equivalent to you being a member of a team and your performance merits you be a higher paid member of the team than your currently are, as you by your own observations believe you are bringing more to the table than your counterparts. You go to the boss, make your argument and they make a decision to give you a raise or they don’t. Its a similar scenario and IMO in not sweating a player trying to do more for themselves.
The problem comes in when a player decides to hold out just because they didn’t agree. To me that’s where not honoring the contract comes in, not at the point where they are saying “I think i deserve more” I get his point, he just had the first double digit INT number is a while, he has established himself in the conversation about being the best CB in the league, he is going to want to be the top paid. Dolphins should consider it, but only make a move if its feasible and perhaps moving the money around also would help their current cap situation.
did Howard offer part of his contract back to the team, when he only played 5 games in 2019? the team had to play 11 games without his services that year.
did Howard sign his name on the dotted line? then legally he is required to honor that legally binding contract, the team should play hardball and stick to the contract or trade the greedy guy
if he managed his money better, he would have more, its not the teams fault he flushes it down the toilet so to speak
we cant give him another contract every single year, even though he wants it
Didnt say we had to, im just saying there is no harm in him asking for one. We dont have to give it to him just because he asked for it.
Its not, not living up to the contract though, just to wants a new one, its how he handles himself if they dont give it to him that would be not living up to it, if he does something like hold out or whatever.
Problem with your analogy is, if you were part of a team and signed a contract, then you’d have to honor it, you wouldn’t be asking for a raise, and if you didn’t have a one-act it’s not the same situation.
I agree with David
the nfl breaks contracts all the time
Teams do it a lot, they ask players to re-work the contract for the benefit of the team, it goes both ways. Its aboyut having an argument to base your request on….over performing, think you should get more, you have a right and pretty much an obligation to yourself to search out a possible re-working for more money. The team also has the right to re-work it on under performing players, and they do regularly. Im not sure how there is a difference, both signed the contract.
Steve, Howard just got his contract reworked in 2019, and at that time, it made him the highest paid cornerback in the NFL
but now its not good enough, even though there are 4 more years remaining on the contract
i think he is jealous the fins paid Byron Jones more, and we all know Jones doesnt get interceptions like Howard can
i do feel it was a mistake to sign Jones to a contract he cant live up too, and we may lose howard over that too
in 2019, Howard only played in 5 games, but Miami gave him the richest cornerback contract in the NFL
BTW< Howards current net worth is only a little over $4 million, hes just wasting away his money, thats pathetic
if Miami gives Howard another contract every year or two, the other players will want that also
unfortunately, we may lose the DPOY over this, SMH but business is business, we cant be reworking everyones contract to the top paid players in the NFL, every other year
we may have to trade him, but we could likely get alot for the trade and move on, hes not the ONE player that will vault the Dolphins to the super bowl, it takes a team
I don’t agree with the assumption, that others will want to rework their contracts too.
A re-worked contract like this is limited to a select few great, can’t live without, players
i think teams should offer financial planning for the players.
players think they can spend all they want, and demand more when they wasted all their money.
im here to tell You that if i had a $75 million dollar contract, and made some money before that, id have more than $4 mil to show for it, obviously he trashed millions of dollars on stuff that didnt add to his net worth
Stanger could teach Howard a thing or two about managing his finances, lol JK
but it seems the players like to party and waste their money, and expect the teams to pay for their poor financial planning
They actually do have them, but ots more for the rookies. Part of the rookie symposium is money counselling. Im pretty sure he can afford his own finical planner and one that would be wholly looking out for his interests.
agreed, obviously you cant help people that cant help themselves
i have no idea why or how Howard trashed millions of dollars, but i dont believe the team should pay for that
Lesson on CRT:
lol he looks like he has been smoking some good stuff, too bad he doesnt know the subject, and attempts to explain why racism is ok , but criticizing racism , isnt ok
Critical race theory examines social, cultural and legal issues as they relate to race and racism.
wikipedia
thats it in a nutshell
You don’t seem to get his sarcasm and humor
Lol, ill say it again, even before watching this video the crazy eyes have me at yeah i might watch for entertainment but im not listening too hard on the rhetoric
He uses sarcasm and humor to point out the frauds and gaslights of the left, because we all know it’s taboo to speak of such stuff
Yeah i know but like i said the other day he gives me the Woody Harrelson from 2012 vibe lol. Not that i dont get what he is doing its just wacky out there for me.
some around here can’t see the entire picture, they take offense when criticizing a dolphin player yet do the same.
oh the hypocrisy and how it shines through.
so you would be ok if Tua says hes not happy with his contract every year and wants more?. now im confused
the nfl can break a contract however it’s not ok when a player does it?
everyone has decisions to make in life, i respect anyone who makes a decision regardless of how it affects me. after all, it’s their right.
if howard doesn’t want to play under his current contract he has that right.
miami can either trade him or make him sit and withhold his $, that’s their right.
nothing wrong with howard not wanting to play under current contract
it would be nice if we could ask Howard how he would feel if the Dolphins dont want to honor the contract they signed with him, but we cant
my guess is he wouldnt like it if the Dolphins tried to renegotiate to a lower amount
When the NFL breaks a contract they still have to pay the guaranteed money, so they really aren’t breaking the contract they’re paying it out and terminating it
They also ask for it to be re-negotiated though, which is the same thing that a player does when they do something like this. Again, the bad action is hold out, then you are basically strong arming the team and not holding up your part of the contract. We really aren’t there yet.
i said he has a shot at being the DPOY, the best defender in the league, whats not to like?
well, the problem is, he wants to back out of a legal contract that HE signed and agreed to play for
he might not suit up this season, because of greed and piss poor financial management, neither are the teams problems IMO
and i have to add, that this is the FIRST time i have EVER said anything about Howard, that doesnt compare to the 100,000 things you said bashing Tua
i wont be attempting to catch up, lol this is it, enjoy it while it lasts, JK
Howard is probably the best CB in the league, and he’s not even the highest paid CB on his team.
thats a big part of the problem, Howard WAS the highest paid when he was signed, and the Dolphins later signed Jones to a higher contract, so now Howard is wanting more more
the jones contract was stupid, and we might lose Howard over that Jones signing
the contract he signed runs through 2024, you can bet Miami won’t honor that contract past this year, it would be a massive cap hit with very little dead money,
so what’s the difference in a player not wanting to honor a contract vs a team doing the same?
it’s a business decision, no offense should be taken at Howard unless you have the same disdain for miami when they bounce his contract early
If a team does it they’re doing it for the best interest of the team, the player is doing it for himself.
If you want to allow players to do this, then the ones that don’t perform should have to give money back
Or he could’ve signed a 1 year contract and just play year to year to the highest bidder
part of the problem is Howard got a new agent, i cant remember his name, but hes a sleezeball that is very tough to work with and plays hardball, even if it hurts the teams
the contract comes with what is called guaranteed money, and no, the team cannot back out of guaranteed money.
teams are not obligated to keep a player on the team if he cant or wont perform, but they are obligated to the guaranteed part, Because they signed a legally binding contract
renegotiating the contract every time a player has a good or bad year, doesnt really work into it, unless both parties agree to it
a player like Howard, had a huge season last year, but missed 11 games in 2019, and missed 4 games in 2018
did the team ask Howard to renegotiate to a part time contract with much less money, since he missed 15 games in 2 years? or did they sign him to the highest contract for any CB at that time?
the team was MORE than fair with the contract , but Howard disagrees with it,
this is a big problem, and i dont think the team did Howard wrong for giving him such a huge contract that he doesnt want to play for now
i dont see anything wrong with NOT liking a player that refuses to play because he cant manage his finances
that isnt what the team needs
I mean at this point i think its a wait an see how this shakes out. Right now its just being reported he doesn’t like his contract, but there is no talk of a “Im holding out until i get a new one” or anything like that, so its what it is, in the world of contracts, they get re-negotiated from time to time if there is merit and the two sides can agree. Nothing really to see here right now.
agree we have to see how it all plays out
Orob, You might be right that the team cuts howard down the road, but that would NOT be a breech of contract
as long as the Fins pay his guaranteed money, he has no legal claim to the non guaranteed part of his contract
so if the Fins did cut him down the road, they would still be doing so under contract, contracts are written with the guarantee part, and the non guarantee part written into them
We should trade Tua, Howard and 3 first rd picks to Seattle for Russell Wilson
That’s a nice bit of bait you threw out there lol.
It’s not from me, it’s some whackjob, that has 3 proposed trades, the other 2 are straight up for DE Henry from Minn and DE Jones from AZ
Lol at the numbers coming in from the AZ audit of Maricopa County.
They haven’t voted blue since 1947.
Obama got 97k votes, Hillary 100k and Obiden over 300k
Maricopa County is huge, about half the state’s people. Cast a bit over 2 million votes in the last election. Don’t know what to get from those numbers. Clearly all three of those people got more votes than that.
They must’ve been talking about select precincts.
You guys were mentioning some rep congressmen being climate deniers…the real deniers are those that think there wasn’t much election fraud
Denier in don’t believe enough to swing the election. Count me in. Part that always gets me is Trump creating a Presidential Commission to find the 3-5 million illegal votes (by illegals) that he stated as fact were cast in 2016 just cause hated lost the popular vote. They couldn’t find more than a few and quietly closed shop. Same guy talking about the same now.
So explain to me in PA and other states why they wouldn’t let Republicans in the room to monitor the mail in ballots? Because they were cheating. Ballots coming in unfolded?
Did those happen in whole states or just some reported incidents? If whole states then clearly something was going on. When you go to unfolded ballots… who said that? Was it one of the observers that wasn’t there?
news flash, election is long over and trump lost bigly, hes not going to be reinstated by august
thats totally unconstitutional, the votes were fine and the clowns trying to change the numbers almost a year later is foolish
this is all because trump is a poor loser, but he did it to himself
https://youtu.be/PcpVbXEpsKQ
this looks like someone planned this to criticize her, SMH
fox is whining saying she wont go down there, obviously she DID go down there, so they have to change their lies all of a sudden
Just guessing, but I don’t think the holding out for a better contract will work with Flores. They may be willing to restructure contracts if it benefits the team, but I can’t see them renegotiating to placate a player. They’ll just move on to the next guy. I said last year that this was something we’d need to keep an eye on. Building a team is one thing. Retaining high priced veterans is another. We’ll see how they handle that next phase of building a perennial playoff contender. Good coach or not…you still need the horses to make it work.
What we’re hearing might be just from the media regurgitating old news,, and not from Howard’s camp.
All part of managing a team. You really want a guy like X on the field for you, but you also don’t want guys on your team thinking sign a new contract, play well and all you have to do is make some disgruntled noise to get a re-do.
that works both ways stanger, as a team you don’t want to give the impression as to being unfair as well. destroys locker rooms and makes it hard to get quality fa’s
Agree in general, but in this case X signed a new contract that made him the best paid CB in the league and then after a fantastic season was already talking about a new one. Yeah other CBs then got more (shocker), but guess that was a line for me.
It’s an old convo, but I agree with Rob. Teams ask players to restructure contracts all the time vs being cut, and teams cut players early in contracts all the time, like Van Noy. Sure, they have guaranteed money, but they also have to pack up their families and move unexpectedly. Teams have a ton of power to do whatever they want with contracts, the players have fewer options, and I think those options are always distasteful to the fans because it always puts the team needs behind the player needs.
All the elements being discussed are part of the contract process in the NFL though. If a player gets cut early in the contract, he still gets that guaranteed money. If a player holds out, he loses money to put pressure on the team. I have no problem with players weighing their options and exercising the power they have in the process.
I also think it can be evaluated situationally. In Howard’s case, we gave him a top flight contract following a year in which he played 5 games. We took a chance on him, so even though he has delivered thus far, I’m not too keen on him wanting a new contract 2 years later just because other contracts have moved him down to #5 at the position, or wherever he is now. I think the Jones contract is driving this.
If he has another year like he did last year, then next offseason if he wanted to push for a new contract, my sympathy would probably lie more with the player. But for this year, I’m hoping Howard is just making some noise in anticipation of another big year to set up negotiations next year. At that point we either accede and renegotiate or trade him.
Just add incentives
I think that would be a great idea, if Howard and his camp would go for it.
Would be better than waiting a year for X
We also signed and drafted all the CBs in the league this offseason, so if Howard really pushes things this year, I think we ‘re set up to trade him. lol
I hope it doesn’t go down that way though. Howard is one of those players that has a knack for finding the ball on defense, and that is an incalculable value.
We just rewatched the 2nd Pets game from last year. Howard came this close to having a 70+ yd fumble return for a TD (the ball glanced off Wilkins leg while he was standing out of bounds), and Howard also forced the fumble that was our only recovered TO in that game. He’s a TO creating machine that is also a quality cover CB, and I think you hold on to those players if you can.
Wilkins totally fucked up that 70 yard fumble for a td, he doesn’t play smart sometimes and lets his childish behavior get in the way
Cav — another year and we are past Jones getting more than X. This is what he is thinking about. And he does have a point at $13 million a year.
“The highest paid cornerback in the NFL is now the Los Angeles Rams’ Jalen Ramsey, who makes $20 million in average annual salary. The Baltimore Ravens’ Marlon Humphrey is second, at $19.5 million.”
And Jones is getting 16.5 mil.
20 mil for a CB…just wow.
Iggy needs to step up, so we can trade X, 20m+ is too much
What’s X worth in trade? Bet you we can get more than we got for Minkah.
Cav tonight’s game is the big one, VGK better win.
Hard for me to believe with the wild crowd they won’t be sky high, like game 4.
Don’t want them getting too excited in the 1st period and blow their wad, so I’ll wait until the 2nd to get the behind the goal crowd going
I’m excited for it! The last game, and actually the whole series, was everything I thought it would be. The Lightning are right there too, but I think we’re watching the two best teams in the league playing this out. I think the game is close for a period or two, but I think VGK pulls ahead in the 3rd.
You going to this one too?
Somehow my last sentence dropped off.
It should read: You going to this one too? Did you have season tix, or did you get a playoff package?
Playoff season seats

What a ride former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chris Hogan has been on for the last decade. Hogan, who was a member of the Dolphins’ offseason roster for parts of 2011 and 2012 and served as one of the stars of Miami’s most recent appearance on HBO’s ‘Hard Knocks’ series, was a three-year lacrosse player at Penn State University during his college days before spending one year at Monmouth playing wide receiver.
Is he out of football? I thought he was still one of the Pat’s WR’s.
looks like it
the news is that there is a professional lacross , didnt know that, ;lol

The global image of the United States has vastly improved since President Joe Biden took office compared to all-time low ratings under former President Donald Trump’s leadership. Pew Research Center polled people in 16 countries and the results show a major shift in public attitudes after Trump left the White House.
The US’ average favorability rating increased by 28 percentage points this year – one of the biggest spikes on record since Pew started polling more than two decades ago. Around 75% of people surveyed expressed confidence in Biden to do the right thing when it comes to world affairs. A year ago, only 17% said the same for Trump.
Pew surveyed 16,254 adults from March 12 to May 26, 2021.

now the NRA is mounting a multi million dollar effort , to try and stop Biden from enacting banning assault rifles and other gun control measures
they are not interested in safety, just profits
profits come before lives with the NRA and their band of ruthless killers, the NRA should be banned for life, they are a domestic terrorist organization, that is threatening US citizens lives
They try to ban the NRA and I will be first in line to try and stop it. And I am for reasonable gun control measures.
why would you support such a horrible organization that pays off congress to avoid reasonable gun reform?
and now they are mounting an effort to try and stop Biden from doing ANYTHING at all to their damn murder weapons in their pants
im happy that wasnt either one of our grandaughters, but she was someones granddaughter, daughter, sister, etc
I support their right to exist. Bet you the ACLU does as well.
too bad that little girl has no right to exist, i guess she wasnt important?
what happens if rights for one, end in death for others? dont innocent victims have any rights to live?
David — lets pass the law that allows you to outlaw every otherwise legal organization you want. You could make that Biden, but will come a time when another Trump does the same to entities he doesn’t like. You want gun control….. get it passed. First vote for it will be mine.
No such thing as gun violence, only people violence.
every gun requires someone to fire it, but high capacity rifles and no gun control reform is making it much more unsafe for Grandmothers and their grandchildren to buy groceries
the US is one of the worst nations on gun deaths, and the few that beat us, are really violent nations like Venezuela, El Salvador, Honduras, Somalia, etc
there is room for improvement on our part, thats for sure, i dont want my grandaughterto get cut down
So are you for proper people controls like universal background checks?
that would be a small part of an overall gun reform that is sorely needed
i have guns too, im not against guns, amendment 2 is in the constitution, but i dont carry them into publix, dont hide them in my pants in stores, and they arent assault rifles. i have never had to fire them for self defense, but they are quite capable of doing that
i just feel the nation has to be made safer, we cant be a Venezuela or Honduras, we need to keep the US citizens more safe than they currently are
when kids are killed in grocery stores, schools, parks, etc, then its PAST time to try and curb the senseless deaths
Never doubted you would be for enhancing background checks. Was curious about the Marine who has enough firepower and skills to stop a Russian invasion of a small town.
the concealed carry hasnt worked out well either, why do people need hidden guns in publix?
there is a you tube video of a man that pulled a firearm from his waistband, and shot and killed a publix deli worker who was taking too long to make his sandwich
is that the purpose of conceal carry? so they can murder whoever they dont like? what if the oil change guy takes 11 minutes instead of 10? hes dead meat by hidden weapons?
then conceal carry should be banned also
in the video, the man is wearing blue nitrile gloves like Dexter used
not sure why he had those on, fingerprints on his own gun? but it shows premedatation, that poor girl was going to die no matter how fast she made the cocksuckers sandwich
he used the carry conceal law to help him in his premedatated murder
I really like football, especially our Miami Dolphins!!!
HELL YEAH!!!
Slow Dolphins news day.
Acknowledged… and so if I must…
whats up buddy, we discussed the howard being unhappy with his contract situation, but yea, not much Dolphin news today
just curious, what do You think about Howard being unhappy with his current contract?
you didnt get to weigh in earlier, the floor is yours, lol
Stanger, when profits are more important than life,
then priorities and laws need to be changed to protect everyones rights
You want to ban the NRA. Give me the reason to do that and explain why can do that without the government being able to ban whatever group it wants.
because the NRA will not allow any gun reform AT ALL
you said yourself that you were for some gun reform, but support the NRA
would You be in favour of blocking any political contributions from the NRA, from groups that refuse to reign in out of control murder of citizens in Publix, and elsewhere?
i notice in the entire discussion, You havent mentioned the little girl that died today in publix, what is her rights ?
how do we tell the parents, her child and mother is dead, because we arent going to do anything at all to help keep citizens safe? i wouldnt want to do that
the girl is dead, never even made it to the first grade,
the NRA refuses to address ANYTHING AR ALL, they are not more important than she was
they should have the same rights as her, NONE
IMO, race-relations were doing REALLY well in America… right before 0bama became president.
0bama’s CRT is RACIST, as was his BLT (Black Liberation Theology), taught to him and ‘Michele’ 0bama by Jeremiah Wright.
CRT to America = Maoism to China: it’s MARXISM and it’s LENINISM.
David, I don’t know why you support CRT. That’s extremely radical, even for YOU.
it feels racist to blame the only black president the nation ever had , on 250 yrs plus of slavery, the indian wars, the chinese slaves building the railroads, buying and selling slaves, murdering minorities that tried to vote, jim crow, tulsa massacre. george floyd, etc etc etc etc forever and ever

Until it comes to a head (it hasn’t), nothing to be concerned about. But if Xavien wants to be like Reshad Jones, he’s going to get traded.
good point
David, I understand your frustration!
Letting stupid criminals have any rights is beyond me!
Why don’t we just put them in jail until they decide to be a productive, and beneficial part of society?
Maybe we should just fry a few until the rest get the point?
Hell I’m ok with some good old fashion hangings! Make them very public!
David sure don’t like his criminals for sure. He’s on the side of shooting victims as well. Makes wonder why have always been pro-shooter and anti-victim. Maybe just wasn’t raised right.
I have every sympathy for the victims!
I have absolutely no compassion for the perpetrator!
Fry them all!
now You question my parents, and STILL ignore the girl that perished, SMH
it figures
guess this convo is over, i dont want to fight with You over stupid shit, no one is forcing you to give a damn about children, and criticizing my parents was a hit below the belt
guess i still have to keep my head on a swivel around You, sigh
lol Wyoming, You tell it like it is
David — English a problem? Did not mention your parents. Joked about my own. Yes everyone feels sorry for shooting victims.
lol i hear ya, we cant turn our heads away every time a child is murdered, gun reform is sorely needed,
and im for the death penalty for anyone that does a public shooting and someone dies
The one thing I might have forgotten to mention is the NRA is not a big bad boogie man!
It’s a bunch of regular guys that joined a group to protect our constitutional rights!
I happen to be one of them!!!!!
im sure that your a good guy,, i know You are, im not against guys like You
im against the fact the NRA refuses to allow any reform whatsoever, and uses money to get what they want, , by padding congress pockets
My money, protecting my rights!
your rights are protected by the second amendment, the NRA isnt needed, and is a roadblock to gun reform
a one year old boy was killed today, this happens so often that gun reform is more important than the NRA paying off congress
You do not have a right to stop gun reform , thats not a constitutionally protected right
correction, earlier reports were the child was a toddler, and a granddaughter, but now the palm beach Sheriffs say it was a one year old baby boy.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office has yet to release the names of the victims after three people were shot and killed inside a Publix in Royal Palm Beach.
By: Scott Sutton , Matt Sczesny , Allen ConePosted at 12:17 PM, Jun 10, 2021 and last updated 9:15 PM, Jun 10, 2021
ROYAL PALM BEACH, Fla. — Three people are dead — a man, a woman and her year-old grandson — in a shooting Thursday morning inside a Publix grocery store in Royal Palm Beach, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
“There is no known motive or relationship between the gunman and the victims,” PBSO spokeswoman Teri Barbera said in a news release Thursday night. “However, detectives are still investigating.”
The victims’ names will not be released because of Marsy’s Law, Barbera said. The gunman’s name will be released after his next of kin has been notified.
So kill the MF’r that did it!
Quit letting them walk! Florida has the death penalty, USE it!!!!!!!!
hes one of the three that died, nothing to do but notify the next of kin for burial arrangements

I TOTALLY hear ya, man, but here’s the dirty little secret: you were MADE to feel racist — being you’re white — should you disagree with the first black president’s agenda. What’s more, he isn’t even half black (he’s 47% black), but perhaps I’m splitting hairs.
This, my friend, is 0bama’s 3rd term under Joe Biden. Biden is the white face as president this time around, to distract from 0bama’s agenda.
There’s NO unity going on, it’s just more and more about race through the drive-by media. Those of us who want race UNITY see through this charade.
Of ALL people, you’d think I’D be someone who’d support 0bama… NO!!! I saw through him from ground zero, and not through political glasses, either.
I’m a life-long independent voter, just like you. I can’t vote in the primaries, but I’m about to change that. I can’t and WON’T go for the socialist/Marxist agenda that the now radical democrats are pushing. If you despise capitalism, you’re going to DESPISE socialism/Marxism… you won’t have any ability to do as you do today, so as to be a day-trader in the free-market or as a house-flipper… especially as a WHITE man, should this CRT get fully implemented.
Be careful what you wish for, mi amigo.
We want EQUALITY through peace and reason… not EQUITY through deceit and treason.
i dont even know what equity from treason means, but peace and reason sounds good, where is that going on?
Do You think Obama is at fault for 250 plus years of racial problems? blame the black guy, thats way too often nowadays, and is part of the overall problem
until the problem is correctly addressed, it will get lost in confusion, which is the racists agenda
socialist/marxist sounds like a fearmongering term that conservatives use all the time
its called progressive, and the goal is Human rights, equal rights, police reform, gun control, infrastructure, end systemic racism, and environmental protection, not communism
id like to have a friendly conversation with You on the phone again, and You could explain to me, everything You are saying, because i sincerely dont understand why i wont be able to day trade or buy and sell real estate as a white man
i never figured those activities would be at risk in that manner
MF, this happened a few miles from where i grew up, it was 1920, i dont think Obama is THAT OLD< lol

———————————-
so why would you even count that piece of shit?
He caused it! He’s not a victim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
agreed, justice was done for him, saved the taxpayers some money
David,
There are hundreds of black people murdered in gun control Chicago every year. Where is your sympathy for those innocent people? Why didn’t the gun laws work? Why didn’t the War on Drugs work? Why didn’t Prohibition work? C’mon, explain these things with your ignorant, simple takes on the NRA.
lol fair enough, but let me first say, that forcing the NRA to stop paying off congress isnt an ignorant idea. its an idea that would allow realistic gun control to curb some tragic violence.
if You have a better idea of gun reform, im all ears.
i feel very saddened by people that are murdered, what city it happened in is irrelevant, whether it be Chicago, St Louis, Anchorage, Los Angeles, or Royal Palm beach, etc
why dont gun laws work? because they have proven to NOT work, they are weak, and the NRA doesnt want a SINGLE thing changed, somehow, we have to get some sensible gun control passed, maybe much more restrictive than ever, since the problem is worse than ever.
the war on drugs failed for the same reason the war on alcohol failed IMO
Big profits to be made , that seems to be the problem in most of the nations problems
there was a report today that jeff bezos, one of the richest guys on earth, pays extremely little federal income tax.
the rich are powerful, and in control, we all know it and suffer from it
The NRA wants heavy penalty’s for gun law violations!
Enforce existing laws!!!!!!!!!!!
Quit letting violators walk! Hang – em high!!!

You do not have a right to stop gun reform , thats not a constitutionally protected right
————————–
I’m pretty sure I have the right to vote how ever I believe is right!
yes, voting is certainly one of our constitutional rights, agreed, but we dont have a right to stop needed gun control, or prevent things to provide public safety ,
spelled out in the second amendment, or in the constitution
It’s your opinion that we need to limit guns rights!
I would rather punish criminals!
It’s not the same side of the coin!
correct its my opinion, because its in the second amendment to have a WELL regulated militia, whats going on today is NOT well regulated, more laws and regulations are needed
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed
thats the second amendment that the NRA says allows 20 million AR-15 rifles in America?
that doesnt sound like a WELL regulated militia, then more regulation IS constitutionally needed. its clearly spelled out in the second amendment
AR15’s don’t kill people!
Dumb motherfuckers with AR15’s kill people!
Execute dumb motherfuckers!
so you agree we dont have a well regulated militia keeping the states free
how would we get one?

We do!
You do to! You just don’t like, or approve of them!
They are the people with AR15’s that aren’t dumb motherfuckers!
( Ok I apologize for saying that 3 times!)
a baby, in diapers was murdered today in a publix , this is not well regulated IMO
more regulations=laws are needed to keep the states and citizens SAFE
That was a dumb MF’r!
You don’t seem to understand the difference?
Nobody keeps you safe!
Except maybe the police you tell me are racist!
Nut up buttercup! This isn’t a picnic! There are people that will kill you out there!
its obvious that people will kill people out there, it happens daily, and is further proof that more regulation is needed IMO
and btw, im not telling You police are racist, im sure many are not, and have met some good ones
but there are plenty that are so racist, that they will kill, chauvin for example was for sure a flaming racist IMO and a convicted murderer
again, more regulation needed proof, lol sorry to be redundant, i guess we understand each other now, have a great evening buddy, and stay safe
VGK takes control in the 3rd and is moving on to the Canadians. Pietrangelo gets the series clinching goal. I expect both the Lightning and Knights to cruise to the finals.
this wouldnt be the first time people misinterpret, or disagree about the second amendment
the verbiage is a bit vague, and dated, and the supreme court has had to clarify parts of it a few times, i suppose it will debated forever, so i dont have any hard feelings if anyone else views the second amendmets vague interpretation differently, its to be expected and encouraged!
Peace out, getting late, we cant solve the worlds problems tonight, lol maybe next week, JK
last but not least, lol this was too funny to pass up
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — A naked woman who was rescued from a Delray Beach storm drain in March apparently has had the same thing happen to her in Texas.
Lyndsey Kennedy, 43, of Delray Beach was first reported missing by her boyfriend on March 3.
Fire rescue crews were later called on March 23 to the intersection of West Atlantic and Southwest 11th avenues where they found Kennedy stuck in the drain.
The woman said she entered the drain system after swimming in a canal but later got lost and wandered through the tunnels for weeks.
More than two months later, police in Texas said Kennedy was reported missing Wednesday. She was later found in a storm drain in Grand Prairie, Texas.
lololol
https://www.wptv.com/news/region-s-palm-beach-county/delray-beach/woman-pulled-from-delray-beach-storm-drain-now-rescued-from-drain-in-texas
wtf? Does she have a storm drain fetish? lol
lol i find the story unbelievable, first of all, swimming in delray canals is nuts, there are snakes, gators, alligator snapping turtles, iguanas, and pacu, the big cousin to the piranha!
and of course, water pollution, bacteria, and who knows what else is in the canal there, ive been there before fishing lake Ida in Delray
and wandering the tunnels for weeks, naked, lol wow, no food? no clothes, she must have serious mental health problems, i hope she gets help before she shows up stuck in another drain somewhere in Utah, lol
She was in a rehab facility in Texas and left it.
