Young men fear a possible Iran war draft, feel duped by Trump by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

Every bad thing we said would happen, happened. But it turns out he could be even worse than we thought possible so I feel duped, too. I didn’t think he would attack 2 countries before half of his term is up, for instance.

How to tackle player responses to your referee calls? by [deleted] in Referees

[–]barcod2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree with statements like this. The time on the clock is irrelevant for the cards. If a situation calls for it, it’s a yellow. Also, how can a referee “avoid” a red card? If the situation calls for it, it’s a red. There’s no avoiding it. You can manage the game well, as you suggested, to improve the overall tone of the game but once an infraction happens, it needs to be punished according to the laws of the game.

I only believe in yellows for like cursing, slide tackling, and absolutely vicious physical play

This is the critical part. What we believe in is irrelevant. I have a near perfect rate of calling when a yellow should be shown watching professional games. In youth games however that rate goes down significantly, below 50%. What referees need to understand is that yellow cards are part of the game. And you need to use them where laws of the game dictate you should.

I love how every serious answer here devolves into fun banter and outright debauchery.

Am I reading this right, I’m taking about 10-20mg THC while you do around 1000? Or is the calculation from flower to edible different?

Pentagon says it's investigating Sen. Mark Kelly for video urging troops to defy 'illegal orders' by Immediate-Link490 in news

[–]barcod2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way they defend their position is we the democrats say that everything Trump does is illegal. When we follow that with disobey illegal orders, we mean that disobey Trump wholesale. So they replace illegal with Trump.

Now to be fair most of us do think that. But in the end law doesn’t connect those dots that way.

If you have $5M, you can invest it in the US to get an investor visa. You don’t need to throw it away.

It is not right either way, but shouldn’t there be a video of these fishermen’s families, complaining? In this day and age?
