My youngest grandson plays soccer. He is a junior in HS this year and has played on the Varsity team since he was a Freshman. In his Freshman year the team made the 6A semi-finals before losing. Last year they made it to the final before losing in OT after playing 36 minutes a man down.

This year, they are currently 16-0 overall and finished their region play last night with a 5-3 win in OT.  The team they played last night was also 5-0 coming in to last night's game. Our boys were down 2-3 at the half and tied it up in the second half to send it to OT. They scored twice in the OT periods locking up the Region title. The three goals they gave up last night was the highest number they had given up all season.

They have two more games scheduled before the state playoffs begin on April 19th.  They are going to play two 7A teams in the next couple of weeks.   Their record should give them home field advantage in the playoffs. Hopefully they can take that last step and claim a state title this year.

FJB did say he rode the train over that bridge many times.

I saw that the captain is Ukrainian and he was pissed off at the lack of support from DC.

We make several prejudicial judgments about people daily. Age, weight, height, clothing,, speech, tatoos/piercings and yes ethnicity and skin color also.

More coffee please.

I think all democrats are "fertilizing persons" from all the bullshit they spread around.

I've been to Haiti many times.  Haiti makes third world countries look modern and advanced.

  First thing you notice about Haiti is how barren the land is.  Why is this on a tropical island?  The Haitians cut down all the trees to make charcoal and didn't replant.

  Second thing you notice standing in Port-au-Prince looking north on the hill side is all of the mansions.  Cité Soleil is just west of Port-au-Prince, and is one of the largest slums in the western world.   Why the mansions?  Because the one percent of Haiti's population controls 95% of the wealth there.

  Corruption is a way of life there.  Billions upon billions are spent in Haiti in the form of "aid" but that money never makes it to the people. It's nothing more than a giant money laundering operation.

 

 

And if my hypothetical Haitian man made it to the U.S. it wouldn’t be conceptually any different, as we are increasingly under the thumb of the same kind of thug-elite class in the process of solidifying control over the U.S. population and garnering all the wealth to themselves.  We just aren’t at the starvation point - yet.

What is staving that off for now is the federation of states and our massive economy, which they’re trying their best to destroy.  My Haitian immigrant might do well for a while, long enough to see his child to adulthood, only to end up either caught up in civil war, or starving like they did in all other leftist utopias forced onto a once great civilization by a psychopathic control freak monster like Stalin or Mao.

What the Bidens and the Democrats and their pathetic Republican bitches are doing is setting the stage for just such an individual to rise and, Putin-style, change election law to permanently seize power. The Democrats have already begun that process with all the mail in ballots, programmable vote machines, etc.

Even if it isn’t enough yet to keep Trump out of the White House this election cycle, the best Trump can do is be a slight road bump once again, slowing them down just a bit but enraging them all the more and stiffening their resolve to crush the once great USA and her people for the sake of their own enrichment and power, just like your 1% in Haiti.

YES!  Lara Trump and the RNC are hiring Scott Pressler, who aside from Trump himself may be the single most important person energizing the Republican turnout for this election.
