I'll go on doing what I want. I wouldn't tell you what to do...as you can see, though, I do spend less time here than before because it is not of much value.


Indeed.

No way your arguments will change anyone's mind.

What if you were sitting on the jury for these 3?

Nevada Man Was Allegedly Tortured for Hours, Forced to Walk off Cliff, as 3 Charged with Murder.

Appears they thought he molested a child. Maybe they knew for sure, or maybe they thought he did. Article doesn't say.

Actually article says they thought he "hurt" the kid. So, no idea what happened.

I watch a lot of those true crime things on TV. I can't tell you how many times the mother is manipulating some idiot with what are likely false charges like this. Just saying it's worth considering.

The article said that they forced him to walk off a cliff. Later in the article it says they threw him off the cliff.

It's starting to look like more people died from Hurricane Ida in states that are northeast from Louisiana.

I have only been to Spokane for business but I liked it too. I also think it is the perfect size of a city to live in.
