I was working in a fairly new, large but only 4 story PacBell building in San Ramon. It was built to move in an earthquake. It did. It felt like I was on a carnival ride. A woman coworker was in my cubicle and we dove under my desk so that we would be crushed by it and not the ceiling if the building fell.
. . . and that was how you met your wife!
Um, right?
I was thinking more like, "and that is how you became a father."
Because we all know that if a nuke was midair headed for you, sex would be the first thing everyone did. At least, that was us as Cold War kids.
I'm not sure what the hell the story was if it wasn't that he was a black guy killed by a white cop. And I'm not sure how it could be a lie since we all saw it on film.
Chauvin should be in prison for voting fraud since he lived in Minnesota but voted in Florida. According to Republicans, voter fraud is a serious problem that should be strictly prosecuted. He and his wife were also tax frauds who avoided Minnesota taxes by pretending to be Florida residents while pretending to be a law abiding police officer in Minnesota.
How can GOPers support a immoral felon like Chauvin? Oh right, because he killed a black guy he's a hero to them who can commit any crime he wants. The fact that he's a tax fraud is just a bonus for them.
Jail is exactly where criminals like him belong although when his sentence is eventually cut short he will probably end up being a cop in Florida like all the other bad cops who get fired for brutality.
Fentanyl Floyd died from an OD. Deal with it.
Sounds like Minot supports the extrajudicial killing of all drug users.

Sounds like you can't read and understand a medical examiner report or what the PROSECUTOR ADMITS IN ANOTHER TRIAL LOL.
here's the George Floyd judge saying 'every case is about racial justice'. he followed through, sentencing chauvin (and all cops around him) to lengthy prison sentences even though floyd had a fatal level of fentanyl & said 'i can't breathe' before he was on the ground pic.twitter.com/Uh0X2XcmNZ
Court documents in the prosecution of Derek Chauvin show the public's extreme pressure on prosecutors over George Floyd's death, even when evidence didn't show damage to his neck. Far-left extremists promised bloodshed and terror attacks if Chauvin wasn't convicted.… pic.twitter.com/B0PD6nMhzy
Yes, toxicology report showed Floyd had drugs in his system. Just ask yourselves if Floyd would be alive if not for the actions of Derek Chauvin.
Because if Floyd just happened to OD at the exact moment that Chauvin crushed him, well, that's just Dumb Fu**ing Luck!!!
You seem incapable of considering new information once you make up your mind. You seem to have gone from blindly following the GOP to blindly following the Democrats. There has to be a middle ground where you analyze all relevant facts and think for yourself.

When did he take this major step? As long as I have been here, his main M.O. has been to insert some derogatory comment about Donald Trump into most or all of his posts. including all of his posts on the sports forums here. I wonder if he might have even been bashing Trump back when Trump was a Democrat.

I knew Trump was bad news way back in 2015. Seems by every day I'm being proved more and more right, now aren't I?!!!!
Scott Hall
Sydney Powell
Kenneth Chesebro
All 3 will be testifying against Trump. Who's next with all this FAKE NEWS?
Hahaha. It's all fake news, right, all you fudging idiots?!?!?!

Well, that is literally switching parties so.
Seems you are not as generous with someone who switched from supporting Bernie Sanders.
The deposition is an assertion by the prosecutor about what the ME allegedly said. Hearsay. Get the ME under oath…what does he say about this exchange? Where is the ME report? What does it say about cause of death?

"No Life Threatening Injuries Identified" and his toxicology results showed enough Fentanyl to kill him 11 times over.
"The Family" of course didn't like the ME's report and had their own "expert" do one that said he was asphyxiated, I've not seen that one, but it was done I presume a bit later.

No, I merely pointed out that a certain person DID switch parties and therefore changed his views. I gave no judgment of whether that switch was good or bad. Read again.

The search function doesn't go far enough to find the dozens of posts where you discuss your republican upbringing and beliefs. I have long believed that your democrat zealotry is based on a rejection of extreme conservative beliefs. I don't observe anything remotely resembling a middle ground in your posts. I see passionate, emotional attacks of all things republican, specifically Trump, and defenses of all things democrat, specifically Biden, up until very recently where he finally admitted that Biden is losing his mental faculty and wants another Democrat to take his place.

You've poorly digested or recall my posts about my republican background.
I've described a Republican family background. But that was more just like anyone growing up in a Republican or Democrat family. Identity. I also grew up cheering for Cal football because my parents and grandparents attended and met there. And that fandom was far for zealous than the political conversation at home.
Perhaps you are recalling my conversations about the Netflix series called The Family. I lived there, know they people involved in its leadership.
Religion is brainwashing. They are constantly in a battle with the devil and constantly trying to see the world as Jesus did vs temptations by the Devil.
That mindset carries over to politics.
Good vs evil. Republicans vs Democrats. Us vs Them.
I've been CRITICAL of such thinking. Not a zealot in favor of it.
I find it sad that you think you're going to now be the arbiter on who I am and what I think. I am, not you. And more so, I've been plenty open about it and would again.
But you don't ask. You want to tell, or try to trick me by a search of past comments.
So you can be right and not need to waste your time doing searches from yesteryear, I'll help you out! Here's where I'm a zealot: Trumpism MUST be defeated!!!
Rather than go on a wild goose chase to try and pin down how I've changed, watch this:
The conclusion you're looking for? The Republican Party has changed, more than me!
The GOP / UniParty goes along with $2.2 Trillion Deficits as far as the eye can see, and also work to remove Trump. It's an insiders game where Congressmen work to become wealthy, not be serious leaders.
Perot, the Tea Party, and now MAGA are threats to their $$$ games.
President Trump was (is) the Outsider who wanted to cut Federal spending in some departments 10%, secure our border / build a wall, reset trade deals, and bring manufacturing home. The UniParty fought all of that. The Military Industrial Congressional Complex tried to go to war with Iran upwards of fourth times under President Trump - according to Colonel Douglass McGregor.
President Trump was (is) the Outsider who wanted to cut Federal spending in some departments 10%, secure our border / build a wall, reset trade deals, and bring manufacturing home.
Trump wants to cut regulatory aspects of government so he can advance deals in his favor, with directly or indirectly via money donations by benefiting parties.
The building of a wall is nothing more than a campaign rallying call based in racism. Trump employs illegals at his golf properties.
His failed "trade deals" (aka tariffs) was a misadventure designed to stick it to China because he's racist and wants to show his racist constituency who their enemy is.
There's no way to bring manufacturing home given our minimum wage laws (and regulations) price us out of a global market. Talk of this by all politicians is just an empty rallying call.
Trump's biggest claim to success was something that happened long before he ever took office - the stock market immediately went up due to anticipation of lower tax rates. Unfortunately, this coincides (causes) a massive debt burden through decreased tax revenue. Thus, again, a special interest group play by Republicans for primarily the wealthiest Americans at the expense of our future.
It's sad most voters don't understand these things, at all.
There's no way to bring manufacturing home given our minimum wage laws (and regulations) price us out of a global market. Talk of this by all politicians is just an empty rallying call.
Tom, you can't be serious.
Minimum wage has virtually no impact on manufacturing wages in the US. Federal minimum wage is still $7.25 per hour and we do not have a ready supply of manufacturing workers at that salary. Minimum wage jobs are predominantly in food prep and service-related work and represent only about 1% of hourly workers.
Fearmongering over any raise to the $7 minimum wage bankrupting small businesses is just GOP fearmongering. Sure, not all businesses can survive at $15, $20 or beyond, but the number of people willing to work below $10 per hour (which is far from a living wage in the US) is quite small.
Ford pays its Mexican autoworkers a minimum wage of ~$8.25 per hour. Autoworkers in China make $2-4 per hour (source). Autoworkers in the US make ~$28 per hour (source).
There are certain industries and products where manufacturing in the US still makes a ton of sense. My water heater, furnace, A/C compressor, garage door opener and all of my appliances (w/d, dishwasher, refrigerator, etc.) were all made in the US.
