  1. Killing Victory pretty much guaranteed that I wouldn't be buying a new bike for a long time. I'm not interested in paying Harley money, and Indian is even worse. I'll be either stuck on metrics like my current Yamaha or buying a used Victory.
  2. Sportsters are way overpriced and only really appeal to a certain crowd anymore. They should be around 5000. The Street Bob has been the entry level big twin for as long as its been out. And its also overpriced. It should be around 10, maybe 11.
  3. A dyna was my first bike. It hurts a little that they killed it. But this is a big move for harley. They are finally trying to modernize and update and make their lineup more modern. My concern is that they are going to push people away based on price alone. Harley has always been expensive, or at least more so than the competition (Indian excluded). But an average working man could still afford to get into the dyna line without spending a fortune. I fear that is changing. The new bikes add a couple thousand to the purchase price. I fear they are pricing out people that really want in.
  4. This past weekend's episode was an hour fifteen. This weekend's finale is supposed to be an hour and a half. So it wouldn't surprise me.
  5. Its worth the trip by itself. Lots of great exhibits and classes.
  6. it will probably still be at least 7 hours.
  7. Its pretty bad as a movie. But there is a lot in it for historical sake.
  8. If you have some time one night, and enjoy live music, Lafayette's Music Room usually has the best of memphis and even national touring acts playing.
  9. That makes me sad. Such a funny guy.
  10. My first x39 gun, an SKS.
  11. That was before he rose from the dead though...
  12. And I wonder how much of that is because Sam cut her off.
  13. 1. Why? They aren't firearms. They are an accessory and should be treated as such. 2. No one is needing the government to solve it. We need the government out of it. You are backwards.
  14. BBQ Shop is alright. But if you don't like mustard based sauces, go elsewhere. I'm a central fan. And I think a few of us locals are going to try and hit up the sale.
  15. These are from a law professor. The article is good as it updates the video, but the video is what is really important here. Professor Duane explains how cops and district attorneys will team up to convict people based on some of the sleaziest stuff I've ever heard of. https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/mvkgnp/law-professor-police-interrogation-law-constitution-survival?utm_source=vicefbus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08fZQWjDVKE
  16. Its just a lot of overtime. MPD is the highest paid department in the state. And they are all past 10 years on so they are making good money as their base salary.
  17. They are more than fairly compensated. I know a few officers around Memphis bringing in over 6 figures.
  18. Giving the state the ability to kill anyone is a mistake.
  19. It's to protect you.
  20. As Dolomite previously pointed out, the city or county or whoever will have insurance to cover any settlement that is reached. They weren't 60 miles outside of their jurisdiction. At least that's my understanding. A TN POST certified officer can operate anywhere within the state boundaries. I could be wrong about that but I've been told that by several officers. None of what you said makes a bit of difference. No amount of backstory or anything else changes the fact that they are torturing a man who is restrained.
  21. If you really want to get a model 3, and a roof is in your future, you should seriously consider getting the tesla roof. While the 3 is exciting because it comes in a price that most people can afford, I'm reserving judgement until they actually build one.
  22. Thank you generous donor.
  23. It was a black black person with a gun. That would likely hold up as probable cause for most departments.
  24. You probably don't "match the description" either.
  25. If you carry a gun, you will get treated like a criminal, regardless of whether you are or not. She should be able to sue, and win and be compensated for lost wages, any attorney fees, defamation of character, and whatever else her attorney can think of. This is ridiculous.
