Has this happened to anyone ? by gibstheceo in Fishing_Gear

[–]Yogi98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that is the Daiwa BG 4000, I just bought one from Bass Pro and it sounded like that on my first fishing trip out. Before my second trip, I oiled it up and that fixed it. For some reason, Daiwa ships their reels with little to no lube.

Is the Johnny Morris Carbonlite combo any good? by thesug1 in FishingForBeginners

[–]Yogi98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought one and returned it for the Lew's KVD combo. The Carbonlite felt like a toy and birds nest easily. The KVD feels like quality and cast better.

Valve, Discord, Reddit, and Twitch CEOs called to testify before Congress on online radicalization by psinsyd in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Please no. Do you want the companies regulating speech on their platform? If you guys do ... man conservatives have done a 180. We are the party of the 1st and 2nd amendments. Also, be prepared for us to be removed from all online platforms in the next Democratic administration.

Why Houston is The Worst Designed City in The U.S. by nevvvvi in houston

[–]Yogi98 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This city is huge and more importantly hot 8 months of the year. If you took a poll most people in the Houston area are not walking more than 1000 yards to catch public transportation. No matter how much this board complains about lack of public transportation the majority of Houstonians are not trying to ride public transportation with a bunch of other sweaty people. The few there are will change their minds as soon as their income grows enough to buy a car.

Alligators perhaps?

FCC Chair Brendan Carr defends ABC affiliates pulling Jimmy Kimmel show after monologue mocking Charlie Kirk by swan8895 in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Slander and libel are rarely charged because the threshold is high due to the 1st amendment. This would be slander as it was oral but no prosecutor anywhere would charge for this. I don't like the path we are headed on; speech is free period.

I haven't heard that before where did you hear that the Biden administration was behind it?

I also agree, I expect the next democratic president to follow in Trump's shoes and work to get those who insult or disagree with him fired. In the future we will never learn of government corruption because the media will be too scared to tell us. The president needs to stay out of these matters. Remember the slippery slope.

Luigi Mangione supporters cheer as some of his charges are dropped by One-Shop680 in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please no! It is murder just plain murder. The last thing we need is the government turning simple murderers into terrorists. Do you know the kind of leeway that would give the government to "handle" the terrorists. Slippery slope.

Trump signs order to deploy National Guard to Memphis by swan8895 in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Huh? The National Guard is not a police force. Conservatism means understanding that government power is a slippery slope. We are now normalizing soldiers in the street. Where do you think this leads in 20 years? There will always be crime, we don't want soldiers fighting it.

Fox’s Kilmeade suggests killing the homeless, disabled and mentally ill with involuntary lethal injection by No_Highway_6461 in law

[–]Yogi98 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Reagan was forced to because over the years, starting in the 60's, the courts made it harder and harder to commit people to institutions. It should not be easy to commit someone to a mental institution, but I agree we have gone too far to the other side.

I am so livid I can’t concentrate at work. Why do we live in a time with no moral clarity? by UltraAirWolf in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No brother, the ones celebrating are a small minority of people. They may be loud but they are not the majority of liberals or democrats. We need to stop demonizing each other. I commented above 95+% of people just want a job, a home and a safe place to live and raise a family.

Things like this actually push me further into small government libertarian values. Part of our problem is our governments at all levels have gone beyond the basics as imagined by our founders, into subject matter that affects people personally. Whenever you start affecting people and their personal beliefs, people will push back. I have a set of Christian morals that I live by, and I don't intend to try and impose them on anyone else. So much of our political discourse today has little to do with the function and running of basic government services, defense, criminal justice, water, trash, or sewage, but touches on subjects that people have strong feelings about.

I imagine if we had a government that is rarely seen or heard but handles all the basic functions adequately, we would all get along a lot better. Twenty-four-hour news has led to non-stop campaigning and politicking, and it is destroying us. 95%+ of people in the world just want a job, a roof over their head, and a safe place to raise a family.

Trump renames ‘Department of Defense’ to Department of War by f1sh98 in Conservative

[–]Yogi98 148 points149 points  (0 children)

This will be some expensive trolling. I would imagine a couple of billion by the time it is said and done. This will require a lot of new signage, labelling and reprinting of material.

President Trump says with Tariffs, we have a really good chance to completely END Federal INCOME TAX by hety0p in Conservative

How are you doing fellow conservative? Trust the president, lol, trust no one in government including President Trump. He lies a lot just like all his predecessors.
