  you can’t throw a snowball at a person as kids often do.

  you can’t throw it in a park, at a building, anywhere.

  comments please.

  I read this news article

  https://fox6now.com/2019/12/02/city-ordinance-bans-snowballs-in-wausau-in-the-interest-of-public-safety/

  and had two takeaways.

  The first one is the ordinance applies only to public property. Banning activity on public property isn't all that rare. Drinking alcohol, smoking, noise, etc, are banned or restricted in communities all over the country on public property. If I read the article correctly, if you want to have a snowball fight in your own backyard, have at it.

  The second takeaway has to do with enforcement. The police noted that not one citation has been issued. That's the problem I have with ordinances like this one. What's the point if it is not going to be applied fairly and equally? It's just stupid, feel good politics. Kind of like plastic bag bans or fees for their use (recently passed in my town). Doing "something" about plastic bags really isn't going to impact the total use of plastic, but by Gawd, it did raise awareness for about 5 minutes.

  in fact, several "wtf"s, not least - why were you visiting a convicted pedophile after his release from prison, never-mind having any contact with him in the first place when his preoclivities seemed to be an open secret.. and the best he can some up with is "i don't remember"?

  you don't remember?

  there's a fucking photo of you with one of the victims and accessories to the crimes you dumb fuck!.

  Did you write those, MeanMrMustard? Well done!

  I saw on the news here in the States that the Queen fired Andrew and cut off his allowance. If true, good for her. He did say he was stepping away from official business. He has harmed the Windsor brand.

  “You know how I know that they're finished out there? The carts.”

  by Athanasius in

  2. friends

  the watchtower's many legal problems and the jws' use of carts in their preaching work, reminded me of a scene and dialog from the film patton.. in a scene where patton is viewing a battle site the morning after, he says to an aide about the nazis: “you know how i know that they're finished out there?

  in my dreams i saw the carts.

  they kept buzzing around in my head and i couldn't figure out why.

  why don't they just attach a rack to the wall with a sign that says "TAKE ONE"?

  
  Because evil people, like me, will deface whatever they leave for the taking. I stop at a rest area while traveling that has a magazine rack free for the taking. It used to be stocked with the latest WT magazines and sometimes CD's. I'd carry my Sharpie when I would go in and write the web address for various web sites across the covers. One day the magazine rack had a sign on it that said something like "No Religious Literature Allowed" and that was the end of it. JW's weren't the only ones putting magazines in the rack. I remember "Guideposts" being in the rack. I didn't mess with those.

  Trudeau's chocolate charm.

  e liked the success, explaining the repeat performanceswhy would an alpha male like the former prime minister's elliot trudeau's son justin want to appear different?

  here is my theory:.

  he took acting lessons, and is still using the acquired skills.

  To me the interesting thing about this scandal was the introduction of "brown face" vs "black face." I hadn't heard the distinction before. Is "brown face" a type of misdemeanor racism while "black face" is a felony?

  It's too bad Justin didn't take scandal lessons from his mother. Margaret partied at Studio 54, had an affair with Ted Kennedy (that is icky), and ran around with Ronnie Wood AND Mick Jagger.

  

  Justin's mom back in the day.

  Mueller concluded that ...

  What attack are you referring to? The Russian meddling during the 2016 election? There was a President who was AWOL during that attack, but it wasn't Trump who violated the oath to protect America from all enemies.

  My question, how many members of Congress were in Congress during Clinton's terms and are still in Congress?

  In the House, about 60. In the Senate, about 15.

  Unless the House Judiciary Committee has something new, no. Complete waste of time and money. I'm glad my Representative is not on that Committee.

  For what it's worth, Congress is really good at wasting time and money so I guess it is business as usual.

  Do You Think People Should Be Scorned For Wearing A Red MAGA Hat?

  by minimus in

  do you support free choice to wear a political hat or article of clothing?

  if someone wants to put a bumper sticker on their car in support of a political candidate or party, should they be able to do it without fear of being maligned or abused?

  It's a shame that the brilliant, gifted, and beautiful Debra Messing has been vilified because people who can't read misinterpreted what she wrote. She has since made it clear that she simply wants to know who people are so she can hold herself responsible when making educated and informed decisions about who to like and dislike. To suggest that such information would be some sort of sinister list is crazy. If the information is in list form it's just because lists are easy to compile and read.

  It's not red MAGA hats. No normal person should wear ANY red hat! Read some of this to get woke:

  Trump Derangement Syndrome Is Alive and Well

  by minimus in

  i was on facebook and a person i have known for a long time posted how trump is mentally ill and is truly a psychopath.

  a couple of her friends chimed in when i suggested that perhaps the fb friend was really the psychopath.

  a couple of her friends began to defend her but i was surprised by how many people defended the president!

  I follow President Trump on Twitter every day. This tells me all I need to know about the man.

  I don't look every day, but quite often. The comments are interesting.

  I read Melania's Twitter once in a while also. Whatever she tweets, most of the comments are awful. I looked at Melania's account today. She tweeted something about wishing all the returning students a successful year. Most of the comments were disturbingly hateful. Ivanka's twitter feed is the same way.
