What a dirty fucker that one! People can really suck. I would have immediately called animal control. They would have come out, taken the dogs, quarantined them for Rabies, and then likely destroyed them. Problem is, there are no bad dogs unless they have a genetic defect, otherwise, its a bad owner. Pit bulls are no more dangerous than any other breed unless they are trained to be aggressive. The problem is, due to the rep Pits have, 90% of Pit owners are assholes who want a killer dog because they want to be "hard." IMO, the dogs should be shipped off to shelter which specializes in such cases and the owner should be destroyed since he caused all of this mess. Fun Fact told to me by a woman who runs a rescue: When dogs are fighting each other or attacking a human, the best way to stop the attack and disengage the dog is to come up behind the dog, grab its hind legs and jerk. All dogs have a natural instinct to flee when this happens, even trained Pits. Of course that is no easy task when a dog is attacking but if you can get behind Fido, grab legs and pull.

That's a pic of him after spotting a Jewish woman on the street

Is that Chairman Mao's corpse?

Damn it man, you just made me watch The Exorcist! I have watched that movie at least 15 times over the years but this time I was watching for the composition, the editing, cinematography, etc. This really is a great film, just a beautifully shot movie. The way the film itself was shot, and the actual film stock from that era is just so warm and deep. I really miss the way film looked and was shot in the late 60's-mid 70's. Those movies were art in motion.

You could use a kiddie pool 🙂

You are too funny Reids, a literal caricature if you will. That's why we love ya buddy 🤪

WOW! Looks like someone needs to take their own advice.

"What they didn't know was once they got him to talk he wouldn't STF up!"

Be careful about the deed on the house because as you stated, if the home is paid off but she is behind on taxes or anything else, you would then be on the hook as joint tenancy w right of survivorship has the property go to you upon death. Or if she has a reverse mortgage that could be a real nightmare. I would suggest to her if she wants her home to go to something after her passing she pick a local charity or church and will the property to them. She sounds like a very sweet lady but god knows what her prior POA was doing. I would immediately do a title search on the home plus check the tax records and find out if she has an outstanding mortgage or other encumbrances upon the home. I would not be surprised if the prior POA took out a home equity line of credit or some other scandalous nonsense.

Alright, now you call adult protective services, slip the caseworker a Benjamin and have her declared mentally unsound. Then seize her banking funds, sell her house, and toss her into some fleabag state run facility. WINNING!!!!! Just kidding. You're a good man Red, the world needs more people like you willing to step up and protect the vulnerable. This world can be a cold place and there are shitbirds with zero empathy or conscience willing to screw over the most vulnerable among us and not lose a single night sleep. It reminds me of the scene in Ozark where Ruth visits her dad in prison. Ruth does not want to kill Marty but her father tells her there are different species of humans and it is only natural for the smart and strong to kill the weak and stupid. This is how scumbags rationalize their dealings.

This is the nonsense I speak of. The solution here is simple, get her into a mental treatment facility, get her stable, and if she has no family find her a group home. This actually saves money in the long-term over this band-aid shit they keep doing. Hawaii does this with their homeless and it has saved the state millions. Now those jerkoffs who are perfectly fine can kiss my ass! Get a job! When I was younger and was short on cash you know what I did not buy? I did not buy alcohol, I did not go out with the ladies or my friends, I did not buy anything I did not need to survive. You suck it up until you can afford those luxuries. If you are sane and physically capable you need to take care of yourself and not expect others to supplement your unnecessary bullshit. I remember this time when a very healthy, very in shape (dude was pretty buff), guy of around 25 was panhandling and asked me for money. This guy's hair was immaculately groomed but the guy was wearing hobo clothes with the exception of a new pair of Nike's. Told him to F-off and when he said I was a heartless prick I told him if he is gonna beg for money, best not be wearing a $150 pair of new Nike's and sporting a $60 haircut. Guy huffed and walked away. Just another lazy scam artist.

and on that topic, damn does it piss me off to see people all tattoo'ed up complaining they have no money and begging for cash. WTF? One of those tat's cost several hundred clams, you're covered in them, and you have the balls to ask for loot? FFS, if you are healthy enough to get those tat's, you are healthy enough to get a JOB. See, that's the conservative in me poking out.

Well, thank god the Russians never meddled in our elections or 100% supported Trump...what, wait? Um, the Russians themselves actually...uh oh: Russia Airs Its Ultimate ‘Revenge Plan’ for America (msn.com)

What's wrong Steve, jealous? I'm sure you are very pretty too, you only need to believe 🙂

Thanks for quoting me twice, that was inspiring 🙂 I believe it is a white power thing, how can you think otherwise when Proud Boys and other WP groups are protesting and causing trouble? Trump was not stating white people from white countries were rapists and drug dealers coming from shithole countries, he was talking about brown and black. As almost half the nation voted for the guy well, you bought it, you must like it. Don't even get me on the repeat of the 1868 southern state elections disgrace also known as the Brown confirmation hearings. If that was not the single most racist and disgusting pantomime nothing is. Not a single repub questioned her on actual case law, or cases she presided over outside of her supposed "soft on pedophile" nonsense. Every ruling on those cases was in line with what all other judges were doing, even republican judges. That I don't even understand as they could have easily questioned her about her actual record which shows she is anything but an originalist which is the wet dream of all republican legislators. That's what really get's me goat, even when they have real provable concern, they go with the dancing monkey show instead. Why? Do they believe the American people are that dim that they have to turn to Tic-Tok absurdism to keep them enthralled? Now that's sad. Whatever happened to the Eisenhower Republicans? The William F. Buckley's who could debate policy and substantiative issues with the best of them? Those were great men. Great men who are not spinning in their graves like a dreidel spun by Meth-head Mike. I would vote for an Eisenhower republican over any current dem and that's a fact.

100% truth The fact is, a large contingent want's to return to exactly how things were in say, Alabama circa 1950 but they dance around their true thoughts and motives with nonsense. They hate government but the increase government to regulate human behavior while eliminating regulation of corporate behavior. They say they are pro life but abandon that life immediately once born. They claim support of personal freedoms until those freedoms are in conflict with their idea how a person should live their life. I guess I would just shake my head at such white power, classist rhetoric, but when these people scream about social programs and how the poor need to "get their shit together" while having zero issue with the wealthy and corporations taking government handouts in the tens of billions, it's disgusting. What's ironic is these dopes never learn form history and what eventually happens when a particular "group" hordes everything. Ye olde guillotine time that's what. That is the problem with human nature, the shit always seems to rise to the top. And now, a word from our sponsor...

I think you mean the word Aryan which refers to the long gone original inhabitants of what is now eastern Iran and north-western Afghanistan. Hitler and the Thule Society believed the Aryan race were a race of supermen who migrated from this region over 2,500 years ago to what is now Germany & the Scandanavian countries. Hitler so believed this nonsense he sent countless German anthropologists to Iran, Afghanistan, & India in search of artifacts from these peoples. Ps. They found jack shit because its all a load of bullshit. Robert's use of the word Arian is old Welsh and means "silver one." It also means son of god, or one made of the same substance of god but not god itself in old Latin.

How does one ditch someone mid-song? Did they just exit the stage in the middle of the song leaving Carson all by his lonesome on-stage? Sorry, but this makes no sense.

There you go again Steve, making assumptions. I never said people should be forced to carry health insurance for themselves. In fact I am 100% Medicare for all with no co-pays. Reason why is Medicare is outcome based, not profit based. Currently you go i for knee replacement surgery under private insurance and if the good doc screws up, well, your insurance will pay the idiot doctor for another surgery. Medicare does not allow that. Under Medicare the doctor would have to perform the new surgery at no cost since he / she screwed up. Medicare for all would cost around half of what private for profit insurance currently costs the people, that's a fact because, well, all those insurance related costs would be gone and doctors would actually be forced to do their jobs correctly the first time just like it is everywhere else on the planet. Regarding heroin, use was at an all time low until the pharma companies stepped in and became the opioid dealers to the country. Then after the good docs and the pharma industry hooked all those people the cut off the teet which resulted in those people seeking out heroin. Supply and demand baby, free market economics 101. We cannot create a problem and then blame those who become addicts. Personal responsibility is one thing, going to a board certified doctor who is no better than Corn-Pop on the corner is the fault of the system, not the user or rather, victim of that system. But to answer your question, no, heroin should not be illegal, nor should it be legal, it should be decriminalized as it is in Portugal which has the lowest rate of overdoses, and has the lowest overall usage rates of opioids as a result of this policy. In fact, any laws prohibiting drugs are a direct violation of the US constitution if one is an originalist in the interpretation of the constitution which has always been a major argument and brings me to another point. I find it ironic the right wants originalist interpretation of the constitution when it fits their needs but then wants new law contrary to the constitution when that fits their needs. Again, more hypocrisy from the right. Then again I can't stand most dems either so, there's that. As Plant77 said this blue team red team nonsense needs to stop. If we don't learn to work together we simply cannot succeed.

Now there's a positive thought Though if I live to see the end of the human race, I would prefer to do it on a beach with a pina colada in one hand and a head full of Ayahuasca. A sweet honey like Ava Gardner by my side would be a nice bonus. Go out with a bang if ya know what I mean 😉

This is my hope as well, the generals simply realize WWIII would be game over so they just disobey orders and oust him. It still gives me pause though.

Bottom line is we are fucked by Russia unless the FSB steps in and takes him out. The guy is nuts and is threatening nuclear war if we or NATO gets involved so it places the world in a no-win situation.
