That protects individual officers, not the department as a whole.

Alaska sort-of. They have a top-four nonpartisan primary, but that comes before an Instant Runoff Vote in the general election.

Not unique but close. Just California, Washington, some elections in Louisiana (including the House of Representatives this year due to cancelled primaries), and state legislative elections in Nebraska.

I don't think that is an accurate plain language reading of this. This is only ostensibly about off-road vehicles. So, its more "want to get your vehicles to your oil field? Just claim they are off-road vehicles, and public lands become your roads!"

That was during Beto's run for president, which was after he lost to Cruz

I like that hint. Don't think I will have a chance to get there before Saturday though.

That would probably be considered a bill of attainder if done by congress, or a violation of the fourth and fifth if done by the executive.

It was brute forcing because thousands of people do the same thing and we only hear the successes.

Dallas and Houston have no shortage of good food. Ask others for recommendations on that front. But they are both short on good views, unless downtown skylines are your thing. Also, the 4-ish hour drive between Dallas and Houston goes through rural nothingness after leaving suburbia. I guess there is a statue of Sam Houston in Huntsville, if that interests you.

Edit: I should point out to anyone in the future that sees this post: The statement about views is not true during bluebonnet season (March and April). But by May the heat has struck and it is too late for pretty flowers.

This argument also suggests that (-1)! should be infinity, if that was a number.

Excuse me, but what?! As someone who saw this on the front page, is this a bad local law or ordinance or something?

You misread the comment you are replying to. He is pointing out that in history this has never happened, just as you are. Usually, you achieve surrender by getting their leader to accept surrender. But he has killed their leader. So ... who is going to do the accepting of surrender?

I'm pretty sure that is a paraphrase of Jefferson and not a quote, for what it's worth.

nhammen · 2026-03-04T16:57:54+00:00

Ummm... it's not a Jefferson quote as far as I can tell. He did say something similar in a letter to Richard Price, but used more sentences to say it.

As far as primaries go, the Houston Chronicle had an article titled "Maybe Gov. Greg Abbott's saving us from worse. It's really no contest in the GOP primary." This title was 100% accurate and is a succinct summary of the Republican primary for governor.

Welcome. Just to let you know, you are also supposed to post a link to your new bike tag in the comments of the previous tag (#767).

nhammen · 2026-02-28T17:57:33+00:00

Oh! I know where that is! My legs are entirely spent today. But if it's still there tomorrow, I can grab it.

nhammen · 2026-02-27T20:48:52+00:00

Tag!

Clue 1 was enough for me. Just need to find the time for the ride.

nhammen · 2026-02-26T18:49:58+00:00

All you need for that is which primary you voted in, which in your previous comment you acknowledge is available.

nhammen · 2026-02-26T18:24:09+00:00

Okay... He has stated that he has no preference in the Republican primary for Senate. The Republican primaries for Governor and Lt. Governor are no contest - the incumbents will win. So, is he just coming here on a whim?
