How terrible! Should he be impeached for that or executed by firing squad?

Castrated for molesting couches.

If Biden pulled what Trump did on January 6th you’d be calling for Biden’s head.

To point out a key difference between you and I is that I’d be calling for Biden’s head too.

It’s shameful and obscene that you and so many others living in this country hate America and democracy.

So you think that Jan 6 caused $2,800,000,000 in damage? Math and reality isn't your strong suit, is it?

Dude, if you don't like it, take it up with the GAO. But this is the most professional and comprehensive report that details all of the costs that were incurred as a result of the Jan. 6 riot. It was $2.7 billion. "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."

I’m sorry, who was it that died on J-6? I forgot.

  • Ashli Babbitt, 35, an Air Force veteran, shot by a Capitol Police officer while attempting to breach a barricaded door inside the Capitol.
  • Rosanne Boyland, 34, died during the riot. Official reports cite a drug overdose (amphetamine-related), though some accounts claim she was trampled or affected by crowd-control measures like pepper balls.
  • Kevin Greeson, 55, suffered a heart attack during the events outside the Capitol.
  • Benjamin Philips, 50, died of a stroke amid the unrest.
  • Also 3 officers died on Jan. 7th, Jan 9th, and Jan. 15th, widely attributed to the mental and physical trauma they suffered while working the attacks on Jan. 6th.

Quarterback Job Open?

“The job isn’t just straight up Zevi’s. That’s part of this,” Rogers said. “There’s gonna be competition, and there’s gonna be more competition coming in this summer.”

As he works to integrate 32 newcomers, Rogers didn’t expand on what that incoming competition might look like, but he seemed to indicate he’s looking to add a transfer quarterback before fall camp, perhaps before long. The spring transfer window closes on April 25, but players have no deadlines to sign with new teams, so Rogers and offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Danny Freund can take their time with their decisions.

Sounds like the staff is preaching competition to me. Not sure who we could bring in that would have a realistic shot at starting, but who knows. Maybe the guy from Tennessee needs a home. And "coming in this summer" could mean the freshmen.

I'm assuming we are looking for more than another QB but it seems like we have more pressing needs at other positions groups.

So we are all clear now? In your opinion, Jan 6. was a peaceful protest and the George Floyd riots were violent. Even though the Floyd, etc. race riots were 93% peaceful according to reports. Quit while you are behind. You are starting to catch up to the 2 idiot trolls. Although you have a ways to go. :)

Don't put words in my mouth that I did not say. I simply said that peaceful protests were allowed, YOU twisted that into me saying that Jan 6 was a peaceful protest. You can't get away with that, buddy.

So good for the 93% of the GF protests that were peaceful. Good also for the likely 90% of Jan 6 protestors that were peaceful. Shame on the 7% of GF protests that caused $2.8 BILLION in damages, and shame on the 10% of Jan 6ers that caused less than $4 MILLION in damages.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of the Floyd protestors that committed the violence were never prosecuted, while many protestors on Jan 6 that actually were peaceful did get prosecuted. Unequal treatment under the law is not a good thing.

I don’t recall the specifics but yeah there were certainly unnecessary escalations. It was a shit show that very easily could have been avoided by just letting kids blow off some steam.

The first mistake was that when they encountered a handful of unruly students at one party, they decided to close the bars…putting hundreds of intoxicated - and now angry - kids on the street with the ones that were already unruly. The result was entirely predictable.

The IQ of a mob equals the IQ of its dumbest member, divided by the number of people in the mob. When you’ve already seen some that are willing to throw bottles at cops…making the crowd bigger is a really bad idea.

The “riots”…I’ll lets stretch determine if there was enough violence to call them that 😁

Weird memory for me I was studying for a test in my dorm as a freshman and heard all of the sirens. No clue what was happening till I was in college hill next day and saw news vans everywhere.

I know nothing about riots in Pullman. They burned the stadium down the year before I got there, or maybe two years. We did have streaking. Why did they do it in the snow and cold weather?

In 2020, ~21 million people joined ~7,750 George Floyd protests in the U.S. About 93% (~7,162) were peaceful; ~7% (~539) involved violence, causing ~$2.8 billion in damages. Roughly 84,000 people (~150 per event) drove the violence, leading to ~25 deaths, ~5,000 injuries, and ~1,500 hospitalizations. Data gaps make exact counts tough, but these numbers capture the scale.

So you're saying that it took 7,750 George Floyd protests to cost about as much as Jan. 6th? I'd agree, Jan. 6th was a pretty devastating event!

Hey, did you see this?

You guys have been flapping about Fox News this and Fox News that so much I just checked it out.

Been a lot of high blood 🩸 pressure around here about the father stripped off the streets and sent to El Salvador.

Fascinating.

OSU coach Scott Rueck is a good one. I think he may have been the best coach in the old P12. He and his staff are great recruiters. It will be interesting to see what Villa does there. As long as Elenora Villa is still on the team, WSU will be competitive.

I am not on the inside, but after seeing so many players leave it seems this year's team just wasn't close.
