    [quote quote=711]Presumably the family shoveled out the big bucks for the new Bing Music theater off campus drive close to Arrillaga Alumni center and Frost amphitheater… a great modernistic in-the-round venue with outstanding acoustics[/quote]

    I guess he was important to even some people on this board.  Money does that.

    “It is difficult to imagine our student-athletes playing in front of a mostly or entirely empty stadium,”

    Clearly a man who has no understanding of Stanford.

    We will see more executive action on getting unpaid black (and white) athletes back on the field this fall than we will to act on real race relation reforms or prosecution of vandals and looters.  Ask Willie Sutton why.

    This is right up there with exercise ropes hanging in trees and a rope handle on a garage door being characterized as a noose.

    we are at the point where if the most offended person possible can see something as an offense, then we are collectively responsible for the offense and must change our behavior.

    The politics of pseudo-shame.

    [quote quote=694]Well, it seems everyone associated with the Clintons eventually suffers a mysterious death. Even the fundraisers. It`s a fairly long list going back over 30 years.[/quote]

    You would deserve scorn for being a conspiracy theorist if the darn Clinton friend suicides weren’t so darned common.

    I mean, seriously, how many people have that many folks in their inner circles commit suicide?

    Great quote BD. There’s a reason that the term “lawlessness” has a negative connotation, and the CHOP-ers appear to be learning it.

    I wonder how bad it has to get to overcome the individual’s commitment to “anything goes” principles.

    i also hope there is a documentary film crew all over filming the aftermath of this utopia.

    Kind of interesting.  Wonder if the mayor now has liability for allowing the police to be obstructed and allowing a murder to happen?

    [quote quote=662]how is this really any different than Chicago?[/quote]

    And that is a good thing?

    One shooting death isn’t notable.  The obstruction of well-meaning police, however, is.

    Chicago is on a whole-‘nother level. Two young kids killed over this weekend. One was a 3-year-old toddler.

    Imagine what the most violent areas of Chicago would look like without policing.

    This forum needs a like button.

    on second thought, no it doesn’t.

    I guess they brought the dead and wounded out of the CHOP?  I thought they would just provide their own services.

    Lord of the Flies.  Children trying to govern themselves with childish concepts.  It will only get worse.

    Question:  Why wouldn’t people who block the police from responding be arrested on the spot for at least obstructing an investigation???

    Good question!

    also. I guess there was a huge campaign to reserve rally tix by lefties. Pretty poor sportsmanship but all’s fair.

    Well, a day later and the discussion is how trump didn’t come close to filling the tulsa arena.  nowhere close.

    I’m not at all surprised but I think it also has to be weighed against the amount of rational and irrational fearmongering on both the covid and antifa fronts.

    Yep. It’s there.  I just had to approve it.  Take a look and let me know if I got that wrong:  bunch of pasted text, right?

    I think I have turned off the spam feature.  If spam becomes a problem we’ll figure that out, but it shouldn’t.

    Found it.

    Thanks for bringing this to my attention.  The board software has a spam filter that has caught a few posts.  I think it’s due to the pasted text.

    Since we only have people on here who are known / approved and since there is no automated approval, I will see if I can find how to turn that feature off.

    I didn’t know about it and it took me a bit to find where your post had landed.
