Motor City Sonics

Does anyone know what "well-regulated militia" the Crumbleys were part of? (That part of the 2nd always gets left out by gun nuts). Some think it will be overturned, but we know that they bought that gun for him. He didn't steal it, it was HIS gun and people under 18 can't posses firearms in Michigan. 15 year olds are stupid (as we all were) and should not have such things. All she had to do was ANYTHING to try to help him. One appointment with a shrink and she's not guilty. Just the bare minimum. A now former friends of mine thinks this could set a precedent in "the hood" where parents are held responsible for the crimes their kids commit with guns. (of course the right wingers have to bring their ****ing racism into everything). Well if a parent buys their minor a pistol and the minor uses that pistol to kill people. Then GOOD ! I don't care where they're from or what their skin tone is. Time to start applying reason to gun laws in this country. They do exist. Start acting like it. Yes former friend, I am not associating myself with gun nuts anymore. I'm done with them. Not gun owners, gun nuts.

Oh yeah, I know, I get it, but it's still sad. And it was beyond fame, it was obsession. They handled it better than Cobain did. He wanted to be famous and it killed him.

That press conference is great. Showed how much fun they were having. So sad that it turned so cynical in just four years.

It was Sixty years ago today. When first touched at at JFK.

I love this song. It just puts me in a good mood. It's Big Star meets the Raspberries. Here's to major chords and harmonies ! (nice nod to the Beatles in the video)

I take it back. Jen says she wouldn't do anything differently. Fine, then give her consecutive sentences. She's truly remorseless. Let her ponder this for 25 years. I'm sure we'll see her speaking at a Repugnantcan convention in the future, playing Martyr.

I would vote twice for her if I could. Because that's a win-win. If you don't get caught voting twice you hurt Trump but if you do get caught you can always say "See, Republicans always cheat" I would even vote for Rick Pitino over Trump and I HATE Rick Pitino. I would even vote for Rand Paul over Trump, under one condition...........that his former neighbor gets to kick his ass once a month.

It's factual that most gun owners are in favor of reasonable gun laws because when you have unreasonable people doing unreasonable things with guns it makes all gun owners look bad. Despite our many flaws as a country , most people tend to go the common sense route. Even now with this Republican Party. But we'd better be careful right now because things could go wildly astray very quickly starting in November.

That's part of it, but she is not the one who pulled the trigger and it's very doubtful that she poses a threat to society herself, so what's the point of burying her under the prison. Plenty of others deserve that fate. I think she's gonna get 4-5 years total (including what she's already served) and that seems about right to me. Much as I hate Kwame Kiltpatrick, I don't think he deserved 28 years. He did a decade. I think that's fair. Lost a decade with his kids growing up and that's a steep price. Just wondering how far he's gonna take this new religious grift he's on 'cause I ain't buying that nonsense.

Involuntary Manslaughter. They could but they won't, and I agree with that. These will be concurrent. I think half a decade makes the point.

I think 4-6 years total is fair. I don't know, maybe she could advocate for others to avoid this path when she , but I haven't seen any public evidence of remorse and even if she did show it, would it be for what her son did or what she's going through? This is a VERY historic moment, actually.

I really hope this stands and doesn't get overturned (I fear they'll find something to overturn it at some point). but what I REALLY hope for is that this sets a precedent all over this country. I know there are plenty of cases where the parents tried and I mean really tried to help potential shooters, but I think it's pretty evident, so far, that this couple did nearly nothing. I mean this kid's red flags came with bells and whistles and fireworks. You buy a troubled teenager a gun? For the parents who seemingly love their guns more than their kids should be paying attention to what's happening here. Thank you to the Karen McDonald and the Oakland Country Prosecutor's Office for refusing to take this **** anymore. To me they are heroic for this. Well done. I hope other Prosecutor's around this country stop bowing to NRA pressure and start doing their damn job in situations like this. Even Eric Harris' father (Columbine) tried to do the minimal to help his son. It wasn't much, but at least there was some attempt. Now let's strengthen the law regarding unsecured guns around minors. Might not stop every one of these shooters, but it might stop a few. So little to ask, but **** the NRA and their rhetoric. Kids don't need to die at school. I don't know the sentencing guidelines for this, but I am guessing she probably stays in prison for another 3-4 years. It's a better fate than the mothers of Adam Lanza (Sandy Hook) and Faith Kinkel (Oregon, 1998). She is lucky that he didn't start with her. She's getting off a lot easier than the parents of those kids at Oxford (and not just the ones who were killed and wounded). Might help to actually feel a little remorse too. Plenty of time to work on that now.

To me, What the Crumbley parents didn't understand is that the second you have a child, you become secondary in your life. It's all about them. Seems they didn't want to cramp their style. I didn't feel sorry for the shooter, but I kind of do now. I mean, he deserves jail time, but I feel like he was more of a nuisance for the parents than actually the most important person in their world. Selfish people aren't typically good parents.

Nothing like Urine Yellow to grab their attention.

♫ Good morning yesterday. You wake up and time has slipped sawy And suddenly it's hard to find The memories you left behind Remember, do you remember the time of your life ♫

But not on mainstream Country radio. Won't touch those guys with a 10 foot pole. Another reason why that format is the worst.

Wow, thanks Wall Street Journal. Calling my hometown America's Jihad Capital. Has the writer actually even been here? I ran out of toilet paper, I know where to get some now.

The rumor is that he was a major factor in landing Pudge. I always thought it was offering him twice as much as anyone else.

Didn't know he was here long enough to get a picture of him playing.

Makes me think of the William Hurt line in A History Of Violence.

Look at me, everybody ARE YOU LOOKING ? YOU NEED TO LOOK AT ME ! WHY AREN'T YOU LOOKING AT ME ? I NEED ATTENTION ! BECAUSE REASONS !!!!!!!!!

Look at Bieniemy's past. I know his troubles were a long time ago, but are you putting the fate of your billion dollar business in the hands of someone with a past like that? I'm sure not. Don't care what his skin tone is. That's why he's not getting gigs. Is it fair? Maybe not, but it's understandable. College pranks are one thing, but there are other things you do at that age that are going to stay with you forever. I wish more young people understood that, but when you are a star recruit and have everyone, including older people kissing up to you from the time you're 16 your sense of right and wrong is gonna get skewed. It's why I like how Jameson Williams' father responded to the question about his son's suspension. He didn't blame anyone else. But to your point (and mine) about Quinn. I don't get it. It's a very Snyderesque kind of move. The job was Ben Johnson's for the taking. But there are other Offensive minds out there. That Green Bay game alone should have disqualified Quinn. That was brutal. The Super Bowl year was a Shanahan-led fluke.

When will Riley Greene return?

The Commanders hired Dan Quinn as their head coach? After that last playoff game vs. Green Bay? Wow. Re-tread City, man. Maybe it wasn't just Dan Snyder. They'll go nowhere
