... "I don't want to live in a surveillance state at all," said member Jordana Bloom. "I don't think it is partisan. I think this is out of control and I'm completely in favor of asking whatever we can in terms of a moratorium."

Donna Rahtelli said she did support Flock cameras, but has changed her mind since police originally pitched it to them.

"I was originally on the other side of this when the chief came to present the information about it, and he got to my heart because he explained that we could find a lost child or a criminal," Rahtelli said. "I was really for it. But after speaking to many residents and doing my own research, I had a lot of concerns. Now I am against it. I feel like it's too much surveillance." ...

My view ...

The sports mega-complex should adopt to how humans are, instead of trying to dictate how humans should be.

For example, take a look at the "sport" of boxing. There are categories according to the boxer's skill and size.

Should the basketball industry embark upon a similar categorization based upon the height of the players?

I'd ask, why isn't there a basketball industry based upon those who may not be over six feet tall?

Is the problem really with the trans-participants, or are those participants exposing an underlying [discriminatory?] problem within the sports industry?

Wish I knew ...

@#6 ... I'm not really fond of them myself from an aesthetic standpoint, but they do crank out a lot of power. ...

Yeah, that seems to be the issue here.

There's things like this ..

@#4

And because of that apparent dislike, Pres Trump seems to want to hold the Country to be controlled by Big Oil.

Sen Paul's view of Dr Fauci?

@#82 ... the pardon absolves him of the need and ability to plead the Fifth. ...

Not necessarily true.

The pardon only absolves him of Federal crimes.

Then there are State-level crimes.

As I noted in my #16, which seems to be, oh so long ago ...

@#50 ... MFs pls. ...

I do not understand that.

Curious the lack of the usual MAGA folk's replies here.

Do they support Spkr Johnson's tail-between-his-legs retreat?

So, Pres Trump seems to dislike wind turbines because the distract from the ~beauty~ of his golf courses?

... A U.S. judge on Thursday ordered the Pentagon to lift its freeze on reviewing proposed onshore wind projects, handing a defeat to President Donald Trump, who has long disdained wind power.

U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut in Portland, Oregon, granted a preliminary injunction to several renewable energy groups that said the freeze imposed by the Department of Defense caused a "total halt" of wind project development in the country.

The Pentagon said it does not discuss ongoing litigation, but is "actively evaluating land-based wind energy projects to ensure they do not impair national security or military operations, in accordance with statutory and regulatory requirements."

The reviews are intended to ensure that wind projects don't interfere with radar, airspace and technology concerns such as cybersecurity and communications.

According to the complaint, the review process had been predictable since its creation in 2011, but the Pentagon acted arbitrarily and capriciously as it began to slow down reviews last August and stopped them altogether by early May. ...

@#50 ... What's funny is the terrified trio...

So, the contribution your current trolling alias seems to proffer seems to be more of some imagined scenario?

@#75 ... for something very similar. ...

How similar was it, really?

What was the underlying reason for their sentences?

@#44 ... But I still think Putin was an Idiot for Invading. ...

Yeah, go with that.

And now, imo, do try to now ~fit in~ and lay low for future assignments....

@#48 ... That's just going to put trans youth in potential jeopardy. This administration really are despicable subhuman beings. ...

Agreed.

The GOP in general, and this administration specifically, seem to want the birth of children. The more the better. Gotta feed the labor for those factories the billionaires own. OK, I digress ....

But then the GOP seem to have no concerns about the subsequent ongoing health of those children.

Then I see things like this ...

How might this thread differ if the word "trans" were not in the thread title?

... When he shouts about sharks, when he drones on about his brilliant uncle, when he casually ponders violating the Constitution, his supporters try to dress his statements up as some kind of strategy: He's not lost touch with reality, you see.

He's doing the weave, or he's owning the libs. He's fighting the fake news and flooding the zone. He knows what he's doing."

"These excuses have never really held much water. But his rant yesterday about the Reflecting Pool (speaking of things that don't hold water) was a warning that the president has encased himself in the hard amber of irrationality that inevitably surrounds authoritarian leaders. He has become detached from reality"and that detachment is extremely dangerous." ...

@#42

... I always thought invading was a huge mistake. ...

Yet your alias also says...

@#38 ... I still think if NATO had not ruined the political ecosystem in Ukraine that the horror and death over there would be less than it is.

Perhaps War could have been Averted.

Or it would have at least been over sooner. ...

So, apparently saying that there was a reason for Pres Putin's unprovoked invasion of a sovereign Ukraine.

Do try harder ...

And do try to fit in here ...

Here in Connecticut, we have been having more rain than the norm during the summer.

For example, instead of my lawn turning brown and going dormant in the summer because of a lack of rain, the lawn it growing to the point I have to mow it once a week.

Once a week used to be spring-time timing for mowing here, not August timing.

August timing used to be once every couple weeks, maybe even every three weeks. because the lack of rain made the grass go dormant.

Something's changing ...

@#5 ... Spare me the selective indignation. ...

What, specifically, is the indignation involved?

That deflection attempt aside...

Maybe your current alias might want to explain why this might be a A Good Thing?

... Pres Trump's war of choice against Iran has given the more radical factions of Iran an increase of power. Quite the opposite of the "regime change" that Pres trump had said was one of his main goals in his war of choice (the other being a non-nuclear Iran). ...
