@RockNRoLL_85 11/1/81- Cotton Bowl, The Fabulous Thunderbirds opened followed by ZZ Top. Mick came out to Under My Thumb wearing a Tony Dorsett jersey and padless football pants. I had my arms locked over the front barrier- dead center. Incredible.
Here's how "Genocide Joe" lost the support of people protesting the Israel/Hamas war:
He's negotiating a deal to end the war that includes:
• rebuilding Gaza
• a Palestinian state
•normalization between Israel, Saudi Arabia, and other Arab states
He successfully negotiated the only ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which ended because Hamas wouldn't abide by the terms
He's responsible for the only instance of hostages being released by Hamas
He sent billions in foreign aid to Gaza including:
• food
• medical supplies
• clean water
Building a pier off the shore of Gaza to get them more aid (which terrorists have already attacked to delay the aid)
He's stated over and over that the war against Hamas should be fought with the intent of minimizing civilian casualties
He helped prevent a single casualty from Iran's attack which included hundreds of drones and missiles
He's encouraged and supported peaceful protests
He's condemned Islamophobia
He's condemned antisemitism
He's condemned his opponent's plan to ban Muslims that includes a ban on any refugees from Gaza
I call bullshit on that, in extenuating circumstances such as this, when Xfinity and Bally financial gouging spat led to a great many baseball fans who just want to watch the damn games being caught in the middle, abruptly and in the middle of the season. Lift the f'ing blackout.
@robhenneke@UTAustin Disagree. If they’re students and not harming property or disrupting classes then let them be. There is no need for police or state troopers and this is a colossal over-reaction.
@Deggans Agreed- can’t think of a Seinfeld episode that was “super-edgy.” My recollection is that that was one of its charms- the show was funny while being essentially vanilla. The Show About Nothing…..remember?
Hi Kristi! Women have to make painful decisions when it comes to their own bodily autonomy. You've taken that away in S Dakota with some of the harshest abortion bans, making countless women suffer. Can you explain how the choices you've made are pro-life? Let us know. #HiKristi
