Don’t waste your time. It’s not worth it. Once these East TN people get a notion in their head there’s no changing it.

You don’t know anything about Memphis.

Sounds like most cities.

I have no idea but when I was in school (Memphis) nothing after WWII was taught. We barely made it there and it was only 30-40 years after the war. Tennessee history used to be a state required course. Had it in 7th grade. That would have been around 1980.

What little history American children are now taught is so ridiculously biased and obfuscated there’s no need to worry about what could be. Productive dialogue is done.

To be expected.

I wonder if The Commercial Appeal has explained their donation to the erection in the past 120 years.

As far as the SLPC database goes it is not entirely accurate. I checked the only monument that I remember well, the Forrest monument in Memphis that was removed in 2017. SLPC has it as "sponsored" by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. It was in fact erected by some of the leading citizens of the city at the time.

Noted and fixed. No disrespect intended to that worthy honor.

Bubba’s garage.

Yeah, let’s just make it up as we go. It’s bad enough Trump Jr is spreading that bull#### but now Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has introduced a bill to give him the Congressional Gold Medal. It’s like there’s a contest to see who can be the stupidest in this country. Guess who loses at that?

I doubt he’ll ever put himself in that situation again. What Presidential Medal of Freedom?

That was the most god-awful excuse for a “statue” I’ve ever seen. A caricature. Those dinosaurs at goofy golf courses look more realistic. Yeah, people wanted it gone. Especially, the heirs of the guy that built it on his own private land.

The hits just keep coming.

The parents are culpable to a degree without a doubt. They bought a 15 year old kid with issues a pistol. I don’t know Michigan law but it seems they are going to make a statement here. It’s old-fashioned thinking these days but parents are, or should be, held accountable for their minor children’s actions. The world would be a much better place if we went back to that.

I am almost certain that is a Winchester 67a or might close to it.

I always heard a more abbreviated version from my wacky aunt every year. Why did the three wise men have burns on their feet? Because they came from afar.

It’s the whole pretense of righteousness and overt hypocrisy that’s maddening. I’ll just leave it at that.

Just think of the proven medical benefits many would be able to take advantage of if the the puritans in Nashville would get off their high horse.

OP is 20. Wait until 21 then it’s not even a question.

I’ll be rooting for the Dawgs Saturday.

No, I’m pretty sure @Erik88spends every evening under, inside, and on top of that truck with rags and some Formula 409.

Omicron arrived in the US last week (CA). Just confirmed. At this rate I’m surprised everyone in South Africa doesn’t have it. Mild symptoms reported in the US case.

Weird, huh?
