@Ken_Rosenthal The accessibility to “boo” on social media has now spilled over to live games if perfection isn’t achieved. Performance aside Acũna is human. It’s sports entertainment, don’t like outcome, spend elsewhere. What we are telling kids what they’re in for if they want to be a pro?

“They're more concerned about not letting their teammates down than not letting a national audience down.”

Someone was offended today by free speech in a country based on free speech and shot @charliekirk11 dead. And, some people say they are using their free speech to celebrate it. Cognitive dissonance resulting in change or at the least tolerance has been exchanged for selfish evil
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
If you can't even stand up for a kid who has brain cancer, regardless if you think he was being used for a puppet or not, you have a much bigger problem than you think. Even the good samaritan helped the man who hated him.
Proverbs 22:22-23 ~ "Do not exploit the poor because they are poor, and do not crush the needy in court, for the Lord will take up their case and will exact Life for LIFE."
STOP THE DAMN MADNESS!
For those of y’all tired of hearing me talk about Western North Carolina, buckle up because I’m not stopping. This is my home.
Take a look at Old Fort Elementary—it looks okay from the outside, but the restoration trucks tell the real story. Thank you, Belfor, for stepping up to help save that school.
Now, look at this house. The waterline is so high the windows are busted out. This neighbor is fighting to save a brick house, and behind it, a trailer got washed up and dumped right there. Debris is everywhere.
It’s two months after Hurricane Helene—and it still looks like a war zone. Cleanup takes contractors, resources, and yes, money.
But here’s the kicker. While small towns like Old Fort struggle, I discovered that North Carolina allocated $5M+ for security at an immigrant housing center in Greensboro, with $22M more planned. Meanwhile, we’re told there’s no money to help folks who’ve paid into the system for years.
To the bureaucrats and elected officials: Do better. Reallocate those funds to the people of North Carolina who need it to rebuild their schools, homes, and communities. Let’s help our neighbors stay where they belong—in the communities they love.
Stop wasting taxpayer dollars on nonsense and start prioritizing the people who earned them. Learn how to help here: https://t.co/OfoDEHPVF5

NEW: Entire CNN panel sits in silence as Scott Jennings rips apart the Democrats and the media, says Donald Trump's win is the "revenge of the regular ole working class American."
🔥🔥
"This is a mandate to do what you said you were gonna do. Get the economy working again for regular working-class Americans."
"Fix immigration, try to get crime under control. Try to reduce the chaos in the world. This, this is a mandate from the American people to do that."
"I think I'm interpreting the results tonight as the revenge of just a regular old working-class American, the anonymous American who has been crushed, insulted, condescended to, they're not garbage, they're not Nazis."
@reachjulieroys As a parent of a now 31 year old son with Down syndrome who has been a disability advocate since ADA became law, I would check into the schools he taught in special education. I advocate for the abused in the disability world. Someone is demon possessed to do that.
Thoughts prayers and posts have not done well to advance the cause of Christ. Be the hands and feet and not use the government to legislate & care for the least of these & those you don't want to deal with so you're not popular. Be bold in Christ, not a weak well-meaning bully.
The question is then, why, if you do have talent and work ethic and professionalism, aren't you being heard?
The real question should be -
WHY do you feel what YOU have to say needs to be heard?
Just because you can sing, play an instrument, act, play a sport, have a gift for speaking or do something well doesn't mean you will be successful in that field.
Good intentions with a good product and hard work ethic really are not enough.
How do I know?
Praise leads us to a place of feeling a false sense of love and affirmation.
That's why when someone fails, has a life failure or offends someone, they loose followers or become cancelled.
They don’t want to be like someone who fails.
