Political Discussion in Daily Texan
Literally the first response to that post (since deleted by a mod) was neonmoon saying something to the effect that the 6 year old should have been carrying. Multiple posts like that by him on that page alone related to “constitutional carry.” This is a legit #bothsides issue in DT. Partisans have difficulty seeing that.

Maybe terrible as a Bama player. But it’s fantastic if he edits himself into The Sandlot.

If you’re getting negged that much, you probably weren’t legitimately interested in discussion.

Eternals -- Marvel's Next Guardians of the Galaxy? Jolie, Hayek, Jon Snow, Robb Stark, and More
You mean you don’t think a third team group of heroes featuring a sentient tree, talking raccoon, and led by Andy Dwyer was predestined to be a smash hit?

Weren't we technically already introduced to the Kree in GotG?

Meanwhile, in Jerusalem...
And to follow up, it’s not a belief among the majority of American Christians either. Roman Catholics, Orthodox, Episcopalian, Lutheran, Methodist, even groups that might broadly be considered evangelical like many Reformed churches or those with roots in the Stone-Campbell movement-whether it’s official church teaching or just the historical reality for those without such a denominational hierarchy, they don’t embrace dispensational premillennialism. Its just that the “Left Behind” people are really noisy. And it IS the teaching of a lot of really visible figures, unfortunately.

Texas basketball '21-'22: Welcome Chris Beard
I don’t think Gotham is Newark, though. It’s usually placed in south NJ, across from Metropolis in Delaware.

Thoughts on the new Texas Constitutional Carry?
Because-as a Christian-even if we can in good conscience, with reasoning rooted in Scripture, disagree over whether or not loving our neighbors overrides loving our enemies to the point of requiring lethal force in some cases, it is still a tragedy. We should mourn death rather than glorifying it. The memes I saw in the aftermath of that shooting, holding up as a model, effectively saying “Don’t mess with Texas” made me sick. And I’m saying this not to pick on you specifically, but because your comments brought it all back freshly to my mind.

Thoughts on the new Texas Constitutional Carry?
That’s the second time you’ve alluded to this incident on this thread (after saying he “domed a fool” before). I’m glad more innocent people weren’t killed. But celebrating a shooting in a church, especially holding it up as a model for why people should be armed, is pretty unseemly, in my opinion.

Not happening. He’s opting out after his first 100 yard game to prepare for the next level.

2022 RB Jaydon Blue
I don't necessarily agree with his point, but if you think the first post was mean and nasty while the second was healthy and non-toxic...well, that's bold.

2022 RB Jaydon Blue
Hmmm...I thought that post WAS getting used to it. If this is indeed the new truth, then my point is a staff has to evaluate if the potential contribution a player makes to Texas Football's interest outweighs the potential for him to undermine it. A guy sitting out an entire year of eligibility (not to mention the rumors of conflict with his coaches/teammates) is, in that sense, a big red flag. They have to weigh that against his talent and decide if it's worth the risk. In this case, it probably is. In others, maybe not so much.

2022 RB Jaydon Blue
Even under the most cynical view, it's a red flag in that there is the clear potential for his personal business interest (protecting his body to make it to the NFL) to undermine the business interest of Texas Football, Inc. (winning).

2022 RB Jaydon Blue
Blue has something like 1/4 of the touches Gray did. It’s not really a concern for him.

2022 RB Jaydon Blue
That makes it worse, not better. He’s obviously thinking about the NFL, so he’s gone after his junior year-what’s to stop him from sitting that out if there’s already good tape? Or with Bijan gone, assuming he starts then as a sophomore, let’s say he’s dominating through half the season-why not shut it down then? Approving this just undermines your own team down the road-you’re sowing the seeds of your own destruction.
