For all you with daughters, it would become, same as for men, a felony to not register.

The Front Porch / More On the Lab Leak Hypothesis
May 24, 2021, 12:13:22 PM
Fauci is pulling a 180. 

Hint:  when it comes to Fauci believe the opposite of what he initially says and he will eventually catch up with you.

Wuhan Lab staff sought medical attention in November 2019.  CCP's reply is that US spreads disinformation.

The Front Porch / Spy Agencies and The Media
May 17, 2021, 11:49:12 AM
I don't know if this topic borders on politicism but I'd be willing to bet half the population (and more than half of this message board) aren't willing to give up that stick they've been holding on to.

In case anyone was completely unaware, spy agencies and media have a dealer/addict relationship.

The intelligence agencies know the media are like a bunch of rabid hounds eager to chew up anything thrown their way.  You give them a morsel and they will run with it no questions asked.  After all, it came from 'officials' and there probably isn't a journalist around who wouldn't be delighted...no, flattered....to be spoon fed some B.S. from the CIA or FBI that they can use to springboard their careers with.

Do you trust your news source when it comes to so called intelligence leaks? 

Oh btw....Not to get political or anything.

Does that includes posts like....


"Gosh, did you guys hear about that mass shooting at the synagogue?  This is not in any way political but can we put gun owners in jail already for being a threat to my life?"

There is nothing more disingenuous when someone says..."Not trying to be political, but..."

Or is the rule that all I have to do is preface my political rant with the aforementioned to get admin approval?

Basically,  Biden administration gets to approve whether reporters quote them and the article must be submitted to the administration for approval and editing.

This is incredibly fair.  Prepare for the greatest Presidency ever.

Remember when Trump, in his attempt to shift blame to China as his sole motivation, declared the virus came from a lab?  He had no proof and to date there still is no smoking gun.  If you science believers remember, the CCP conveniently ordered the lab to be scrubbed.  Immediately after Trump made his baseless claim, a letter was issued declaring the 'scientz' showed the virus came from nature.  People ate it up and called themselves scientifically based.  So proud are the Left of their sheepish worship of science and of administrators like Peter Daszak who actually penned that letter and was the primary individual responsible for securing the funding of the Wuhan Lab's gain of function research.  How did the scientific community, who claimed at the time that there was little known about the virus and a lot of speculation, so easily and immediately assert that the virus came from nature?  Well the scientific community didn't....the NIH and WHO did...you know...the science officials

There may not be proof that the virus came from a lab.  Unlike some who claim to know science, I know what proof means.  But the opposite claim that it most definitely did NOT come from a lab is based on no evidence, way too quickly declared and losing traction post Trump rapidly.

The Front Porch / NFT/NGT: Leaving Afghanistan
April 15, 2021, 11:31:00 AM
Biden sounds serious about leaving Afghanistan.  He should have said effective immediately instead of May 1st but I'll take it assuming he can hold on.  Word on the street is the Pentagon is melting down. 

They're already playing up the "American Troops will die" and the "but what about Women's Rights in Afghanistan??!!" angle.

Biden is going to have to fight off a coordinated attack from the Military Industrial Complex and the Media.  When Trump talked of withdrawal, there were suddenly American troops getting 'bounty gated' by Russian operatives and stories about how we need to stay in Afghanistan to 'send Russian operatives home in body bags' and how Trump knew about it and refused to do anything.  The media eagerly ran with this sh!t story to bolster their Trump is a Russian spy narrative.  And you had so called 'honorable' military leaders lying to Trump about how many soldiers there were in Afghanistan in the first place.  You see how the story seemed to fall off a cliff once the machine knew it wasn't having effect?

Is Biden going to make it to the finish line?  Again...he seems to have honest intentions about this.  Then again, I believe Obama came in with every intention of leaving Afghanistan.  He got pushed around and he fell in line.  Stay tuned.  Watch the machine at work.

20 years.  It's so old its not even news anymore.  People are so tired and accustom to it that it seems they don't even care or see the significance of this.

Chalk Talk / Question about Getting Inside Pressure
February 11, 2008, 06:53:58 PM
I was over on the Charger forum and many of them are envious of the inside push the Giants are able to get with the front 4. 

My question is:

Is it possible to get inside push in a 3-4 defense without blitzing inside backers?  I put this on the x's and o's forum because I'm not entirely sure where the 3-4 ends line up and I'm assuming the NT is not a pass rusher.
