You are right. We would not have a war in Ukraine because Russia would already occupy Ukraine. How long before they march into Poland? Trump is too weak and too stupid to stand up to Putin and honestly the implications are terrifying.
If Russia attacks a NATO country, it's nuke city.

Indigent. I think you mean a person, right? You know Stan, when you die, if you go to heaven, you are going to share that space with a lot of those very same people. If they let you in. Awkward!

The Climate alarmists are notorious for deliberately falsifying data as well to try to back up their theory. They were caught openly discussing altering historic data in email exchanges in the Climategate emails, and after they came to light, the University of East Anglia admitted that for one important set of data, the real data had been destroyed and did not even exist anymore, only their altered version. The climate alarmists are dishonest crooks trying to sell us a bunch of snake oil.

Commented on Kidwell running for Speaker of NC HouseThink about this. This year NC anglers will be allowed one (1) flounder per day for a whole 2 weeks. Va anglers can have 10 per day year around. SC 15 per day yr around. Does not something $Mell fi$hy?
Having been around for a while I can remember when, why, where, and by who the CCA found themselve in NC. Some of the who's were fishing buddys of mine. A gubernatorial candidate was handed a $izeable contribution to appoint a practicing attorney not only to the Marine Fishery Commission but to the MFC Chairmanship. The candidate won as did the CCA. Shortly after that Robbing Haze cosponsored a gillnet ban in NC waters. It failed, thanks to Mark Basnight, but 3 decades later the CCA has been very successful in $grooming$ additional Governors. ANY member of the NCGA who has been groomed by the CCA $tink$ whether they realize it or not. Rep Bell told me during theGovernor McCroy days that he was thru with fishing matters. Mu$t have changed hi$ mind.

About 2.5 decades ago, I had trouble at a stop light when a indigent with a squeegee wanted to clean my windshield at an intersection in a large northern city, when the light turned green. By the time I was rid of the indigent, with horns behind me blaring, the light went from yellow to red as I escaped the intersection.
Afterward I received a notification that I owed for the Red Light offense, and after many threats from that city government, I sent them a well worded letter, telling them "cold day in hell," and whatnot. I never paid on the sake of principle. My car insurance company never found out, and at that point I knew I would do all within my power to keep traffic cameras from Beaufort County. Governments do NOT need more, and varied revenue streams, they need less ... much less. I am not sure what happened to the Indigent with the Squeegee, but maybe he found gainful and real employment, thereby providing a service to humanity as we know it.

Commented on Kidwell running for Speaker of NC HouseJohn Steed is absolutely correct with regards to the Coastal CON$ervation A$$ociation and its detrimental political influence on more electeded officials than John Bell, but, HE IS the recipient of multiple CCA plaques awards etc. Those electeds that have, for over 30 yrs now, fallen in line with the CCA agenda have failed to realize that a nation that cannot feed itself cannot defend itself.
Robbing Haze for over 30 yrs blended the GA members with the CCA. His last efforts to taint the NC Wildlife Federation is an embarrassment to it's founding members. There is no difference in the way NC's Division of Marine Fisheries is manipulated (fake $cience) than what we $ee going on in DC. Control of our food sources, esp farming AND fishing, is something that the voters of NC need to take control of.

You've got that right, Stan, and when the machines screw up, getting recourse is often dificult.
There was a case in the UK where a man got a ticket in the mail from a speed camera saying he was driving over 400 miles an hour on a British motorway. He sent a letter back saying that this could not possibly be right because he drove an old Toyota, not a jumbo jet. He got a letter back that the machine was always right and he should pay up. There was another case some years ago when this issue was hot at the legislature, when a legislator brought up the case of one of his constituents. She had received a red light camera ticket in the mail from a town she said she had never been to in her life. Further, on the day she allegedly ran the red light, she could document that she was in intensive care in a hospital in Las Vegas, and the car was in the parking garage there. The town still did not want to cancel the ticket.

Clearly, Bob has never driven in Greece, Spain, Malta, or Turkey. I have, and Greenville drivers are MUCH MUCH better than those. Heck, the UK Foreign Office even has an advisory to its citizens traveling in Spain about driving because of the craziness of Spanish drivers. Driving in Italy was also a bit hectic due to Italian drivers tendency to view highway signs like stop signs as mere suggestions.
The worst thing about red light cameras is that they are an undemocratic police state measure right out of Orwell's "1984", but that sort of thing seems right down Bob's ally from some of his posts here.

If Trump were still president, we would not have a war in Ukraine. A series of blunders by Biden showing his weakness encouraged Putin to invade. The fake "environmental crisis" is a made up load of hooey and Biden throwing away money hand over fist on that is a huge threat to our economy.

By most measures, the economy is strong. Stock market up, unemployment low, inflation coming down. Considering the war in Ukraine and the environmental crisis we are facing, things could be a lot worse.

Your bigotry notwithstanding Big Bob, the cameras have been ruled unconstitutional by the North Carolina Supreme Court.

Greenville has some of the worst drivers on the planet. The red light cameras were good and a big plus, they treated the rich white good ol boys like everyone else.

Commented on Vivek Ramaswamy Allows Angry Protester To Interrupt His Event: ‘I’m A Free Speech Absolutist’Vivek is yet another Republican candidate, new to the politics /governing, who is impressive in his intellect, and conviction in the United States Constitution, and to its inalterable defense.
Alternately, the Democratic Socialists have a sitting president who was "elected" by dubious means; hates the Constitution, and his required patriotic duty to defend it, while attempting to govern by the workings of an intolerably corrupt and feeble mind, which incredibly includes all of the Democratic Socialists in his Executive employ that are not much smarter that this Idiot President Biden, non patriots all. At times like these, Patriots should celebrate the wisest, most brilliant patriotic team of Republicans leading the patriotic charge to save this Representative Republic, while admonishing the RINOs that are still amongst us, constant usurpers of our good work. These are some inarguably strange days and real Republicans, currently serving as elected officials, may be our only saving grace in human form, so we must not fail.

I read this twice, and by the second reading, I realized that the issue may well be about:
The school boards of Pitt County have determined that they may have been shortchanged by the City of Greenville on civil proceeds due to them by the Fine and Forfeitures clause in the NC Constitution; however, now believe they must work diligently to succeed in getting the highest court in North Carolina to overturn their recent ruling on traffic enforcement by cameras as unconstitutional so that schools in Pitt County can settle up with the City of Greenville, and continue to get more revenues from an unconstitutional levy just recently struck down. If I got this right convoluted issue right, then I am smarter than I pretend to be, and alternately, the Pitt County schools' administration /school boards got some real intellectual /wise governing work to do, both independently and collectively, unconstitutional collection of unwarranted fines collected notwithstanding.

Warm or cold ocean water temperatures are what drive the El Nino / La Nina cycles that last 2 or 3 years and then reverse. We are currently in a strong El Nino period. El Nino or La Nina has a very significant impact on temperatures and rainfall on land.

Commented on Kidwell running for Speaker of NC HouseBell and Hall led the effort to citcle the wagons around Moore in his scandal. They helped give us the Obamacare Medicaid expansion, gambling, the Green New Deal, and boys in the girls bathroom. North Carolina can do better than that pair of closet Democrat clowns.
