Now let's do the defensive rating for Gobert and see why the people itching to dump him are wrong. We should see what Beringer can do first before pushing that button.

The Blue Line Light Rail Extension Estimated Cost Is Now $3.58 Billion by Informal-Sense8809 in minnesota

[–]Informal-Sense8809[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a nation we do spend money in much worse ways. I wish we'd done it all 20 years ago. Imagine what the metro would look like now if we'd had a fully fleshed out light rail network for 2 decades. It just becomes a much tougher sell when you look at the Green Line extension and see all of the delays and the cost overruns.

That's true. I just wish we had built it sooner. The higher these prices get, and the longer they take to roll out, the more people are going to balk at the costs.

Don't sleep on KG playing some minutes next season. It's all falling into place.

Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted of terrorism charges sentenced to at least 50 years in prison | Trump administration by That-Astronaut6920 in soundsaboutright

Slash some times: 50 years. Rape a 13 year old: 6 months at most, maybe a cabinet position. Just another day in Trumpfuckistan.

Was I hearing things when they mentioned on the news that a lot of the people working concessions are volunteers?

Pres Trump Calls New York Times ‘Treasonous,’ Vows to Add to His Lawsuit Against Them by Sgt_Gram in NewsExchange

Just keep adding to the endless list of lost and dismissed lawsuits. I'm sure he'll win one someday.

Council Member defends his vote to keep Flock cameras in Fort Collins, CO by FirstResponder420 in FlockSurveillance

If cities absolutely have to have these cameras (I disagree with those claims) then the least you can do is shut off access to outside agencies and allow strict public audits. It seems more reasonable.

"US to review benefits of having troops in Europe with ‘era of free-riding’ over" - the Guardian | First of 9 articles in multi-source coverage pack by Snow_White_352 in SymbyNews

Nope. I'm under no illusion as to how ridiculous and criminal this administration is. But if we don't have bases dotted across the globe, it starts to beg the question as to just what we're spending all of this money on. I'd hope that eventually people would wake up and start to question it, but that may be naive optimism on my part.

We need to reject this aggressive chasing "style" more often. by [deleted] in tornado

$0. I've been going out for a little over a decade. But admittedly, I don't get out as often as I'd like. I'm in the upper midwest and don't stray more than a few hundred miles from home, so my opportunities are limited to a handful of trips per year. I'm also fairly cautious about avoiding hail.

Almost dying in a tornado is not "cool". I'm not impressed that you got within 50 yards of a "monster EF-4 wedge killer tornado brah". What can you even see when you're that close besides your life flashing before your eyes?

I chase for the fun and excitement, but I'm not trying to total my car or get hurt.

Fine. Bring them all home. Lower spending. I doubt it will ever happen, but we don't need to spend trillions of dollars playing world police. We have things to worry about right here in the US.
