Well, why do you think he is saying that then? Why do you think practice is being called into question? It is about WI.

He’s saying it because in a lot of cases black people are needlessly shot and/or killed by police officers with no justification.

Idk I’d read Sheil’s article about his background. His father makes it sound like he doesn’t Exactly love the game. I do think we are expecting tra and Peters cause we grown accustom to their high level play over the years but i also think he might just not be the player we thought when drafting him. I think both can be true. 

If you were excited for the Flyers game tonight, don't be.  It's cancelled.  What a joke.

no problem , i'm tuned into the issue's since my only son is biracial and i told him when he was in elementary school that if he ever saw someone with a gun to remove himself form the situation. he's a 34 year old man now and has steady career and has great rapport with everyone he deals with and them him.

Well, good on him and good on you for giving him a version of "the talk."

P.S. It's well known that mutts are healthier and longer-lived than pure-bred dogs. I believe that something along these lines applies to people too. Bi-racial and multi-racial children are at least as smart and generally better looking. Of course, I am biased.

@HazletonEagle

Even though I was in on Gabriel Davis, I consider him your guy. Sounds like he’s been killing it with the Bills.

No that isn't all you have to do. At least not in Pa. 

Varies from state to state. Most states now will at least have you fill out paper work to register one as the owner of the gun and do a background check. Other states have a 3 day cool down period while background check is done.

Ive shot lots of guns my family owns lots of guns, theyre real easy to buy especially if you go to a gun show where background checks arent done or buy from a guy on craigs list.

Point is its far easier to get hold of and operate a gun than it is a car so why not put common sense gun laws in place to decrease gun violence. 

Sure bad guys that want guns will still get guns but if there were appropriate common sense gun laws one of my friends still might be alive. As is he went into a walmart one night bought a deer rifle went to our old elementary school baseball diamond and shot him self😞

 Asking for common sense gun laws to decrease gun violence isnt infringing on anyones rights, its asking to take common sense moral steps to decrease gun violence.

Apologies if this all seems directed at you, intended for all.

You sure? I saw some NHL diversity group call for it to be postponed but not any actual confirmation from the NHL

How difficult would it be to implement common sense gun laws to decrease gun violence?

 

Who get to decide what's "common sense"? Your point about requiring training is a good one. One concern about licensing, especially recurrent licensing relates to the Jews in pre 1930s Germany. Not many felt a concern about declaring their religion. Do you suppose the SS made use of those records? Can't happen here? I'm pretty sure that's what the Jews in pre 1930s German thought.

Oh and just so you are aware there are thousands of people on the road that have suspended, expired, or just don't have a drivers license at all.

Yup doesnt mean one dissolves the laws.

In evolutionary biology the phenomenon is referred to as heterosis.

Dont register, License your car. Are you aware of how many records the government has on you??? Heck this conversation is being recorded on a server somewhere, your cell phone tracks your every movement, but you want to draw the line at gun registration licensing??? How about business license, a license to handle hazardous waste, fishing license???

Come on man!

Yup.  Cutler was always a dud but I really thought that Alshon Jeffery, Kevin White, Eddie Royal receiving group was going to be great.  Oops...

Look I think I have already said that I'm fine with background checks and there are already laws in place so.....................................Nobody is arguing there shouldn't be laws.

Nope. I won't argue that gun shows need cleaned up. Other than that there are plenty, enforce the ones we have.

I hope this gets better. I'm just concerned, even going back to the emotional breakdowns he had last training camp.

At best, he has not shown to be very tough in his limited exposure.
