The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Rev. Baloney,

You don't even read, do you?

I did NOT state that Pretti Boi still have the firearm that was allegedly removed by an LEO.

What I actually said, and you ignored, is that he probably moved his hand in such a way as to suggest that he was reaching for a weapon.

I didn't say it was the same weapon as had been removed.

People who carry weapons often carry more than one. Pretti Boi had one "concealed weapon," why would anyone with any self-preservation instinct assume he only had ONE weapon on him?

I didn't say Pretti Boi actually displayed a second weapon.

I SAID he moved his hand in such a way as to suggest he was REACHING for a second weapon. Supposedly it was a cell phone.

You're also assuming the LEO who shot him was aware that a different LEO had already removed Pretti Boi's firearm.

I'm not.

But since you don't live in reality, I have a suggestion for you:


Go for a ride in your car. When you see a police car sitting by the side of the road, maybe clocking speeders, or by a red light, speed or run the red light.

When you get pulled over by the cop, put your hands on the steering wheel and tell the cop that you have a concealed firearm.

Ignore the police officer's instructions that follow; and then reach for your waistband as if you are going to pull something out.

For that matter, reach into your pocket for your cell phone.

If you survive, let us know how that worked out for you.
