Lions

mustangdoug: the lions may suck as an NFL franchise, but make no mistake....these are grown men. There would not be a high school team in this country (and very few college teams) that could come anywhere near beating ANY NFL team

Jennifer Granholm v. Sarah Palin

Alaska has 680k residents. Michigan has 10M. One is flush with oil revenues, the other largely tied to a dying manufacturing sector. If Macomb County (with 830k residents) had Alaska's oil revenues, it would be a more appropriate comparison

Strip Club Regulations

RoadKing: I agree with what you say. It can be taken further to apply to those who continue to support the absurd prohibition of pot.

Goat: No, I was speaking specificallly about people committing vigilante justice in place of the law enforcement community. And, related to it, a mechanism where people accused of stuff (child molestation included) are able to retain counsel to defend themselves against charges. This was in response to eric's claim that "no one should ever defend a child molester, period". I disagree with that statement

lets not defend child molesters

Actually, I do think that there are people who should defend child molesters, as well as other miscreants. They are called Defense Attornies. Without them, we would descend into chaos

lets not defend child molesters

I was not doing that. I was only saying that they should be dealt with by the criminal justice system, not a vigilante. Seems to me that there is a huge religion that has been hiding pedophiles.

highland park father kills son

Abe,

If you have been reading my posts over the past month or so you will see that I'm respectful. Calling King Tut an idiot is just how I feel. How can you really stand up for child rapists or child molesters as King Tut has.

So, if it is how you really feel, it means that it is not name calling?

Where did I stand up for child rapists?
