You mean there are "attempts" at sports talk here. Once or twice it worked, other than that it was hi-jacked by the same far right obsessed few that are here on a daily.
It's having the opposite affect that they intend. Unless their intention is to compare far right rhetoric with other far right obsessed.
As for the topic....I agree with the OP....but I hate admitting that, so pretend like I didn't. lol

... That's the GREAT thing about the forum.

Attendance and posting is VOLINTARY. ... So is reading.
And so is your participation.

... But THAT said - I'm GLAD you're here, mate.
It surely takes All Kinds to create good discussion.

It also doesn't take much to turn off people who want to have other types of discussions.

Or to chase off providers and stifle their participation.

If the goal is to have good discussions and conversations, this fucking clown show isn't the place to do it.

[Salty Again]

... Then take a walk.

Participation here is VOLINTARY.

Participation in the entire forum is voluntary. Living in this country is voluntary. You can always go somewhere else.

Don't like something? Get to stepping

That's not a position that invites conversation or seeks consensus. It's one that says, "fuck you... I'm doing MY thing you so either accept it or find your own sandbox to play in"

This isn't The Stump and yet it sure fucking feels like a few people have found a way to resurrect its corpse over here

This isn’t Indys. Never was, never will be. You’ve posted threads in the SB which people have contributed to. Including me. It’s that easy to pick and choose what threads to click on. It’s VOLUNTARY. So take your own advice. It should take a modicum of self restraint not to click on threads that upset you. Why stick needles in your eyes when nobody’s forcing you? Carry on.

Back on topic. There’s a common thread with all these leftist DA’s. Huge contributions from George Soros. He’s been a menace for decades.

Didn't say it was. But it sure has shifted in that direction since TOS closed and it's getting worse every day.

Not because of what's posted or its position on the political continuum, but because of what the constant drum beat of political bullshit is driving off, stifling and drowning out as it further devolves into partisan buffoonery

That’s just your opinion and you continue to take this thread off topic.

What I don't understand is why anyone in the hobby would support the leeches of law enforcement.

You are off topic - quit trying to hijack this thread

So you support the DA looking the other way and actively letting criminals walk free? You support letting:

Armed robbers who use guns or other deadly weapons to stick up stores and other businesses walk free?

Convicted criminals caught with weapons other than guns walk free?

Burglars walk free?

Because that is what the DA in NYC is doing. Who would want to live in such a crime ridden hellhole?

[CrispHundos]

News flash for you, most members of this group, and all of the providers are criminals in the eyes of your parasitic police pals. I'd rather take my chances with criminals than be forced to fork over several hundred dollars of the fruits of my labor every year to fund the paychecks, patrol cars, lawsuit payouts and pensions of a gang of blue costume wearing welfare queens whose so called services, I and the majority of other citizens, never wanted, needed or asked for in the first place.

Newsflash for you - what the Manhattan DA is doing is putting dangerous criminals on the street. This is far beyond some provider or client on a minor soliciting charge

But cool - if you want to live in a crime infested hellhole, be my guest, I am sure NYC will welcome you. Most people want some law and order in their lives

[CrispHundos]

If you truly think the majority of citizens want or need the so-called services the leeches of LE claim to provide, we can put it to the test really easy. Simply make the taxes that fund their entire budgets optional for a year and we'll see just how long those socialist sponges can keep their stations open for when it's only bootlickers paying the bills.

Now this is how it is done:

Virginia’s new Attorney General has just fired a bunch of libtards in the AG office and announced that he will prosecute criminal cases in jurisdictions where Soros DAs decline to prosecute.
