@MJTown82@CassandraRules She was in the car, she had blood all over her face and clothes. You can see the blood stained the snow where she was sitting. Watch the video that the guy who lives in the house right there took.
@FarmGirlCarrie Welcome to the Kingdom, brother. May God bless you each and every day and may you grow in your understanding of God’s love and purpose for your life❤️✝️
@RinStef3@Commanders WTF is right! What the heck was he doing? He was giving me anxiety just watching him. That has to be the weirdest, bordering on mental, pre-kick ritual ever. Give that man some Xanax!
@jeffgoldesq @LaCivitaC I think you might have meant “washed” his hands, not watched his hands. So obviously the decline is due to the ecoli scare and not about Donald Trump.
@beeinchicago@Franklin_Graham Well don’t point the figure at Israel. They are the only voice in the Middle East pleading for their fellow Muslim countries to open their borders and allow the Palestinian people to seek refuge away from Hamas.
Michael Smith wrote this moving account of the fate that befell many of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence:
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence?
Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.
Two lost their sons in the revolutionary army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the revolutionary war.
They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners, men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.
Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.
Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward.
Vandals or soldiers or both, looted the properties of Ellery, Clymer, Hall, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.
At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. The owner quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.
Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months.
John Hart was driven from his wife’s bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates.
Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: ‘For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.’”
@emteehall As someone proud to be a native Virginian, I was blown away by Harry Melling absolutely nailing the Southern Virginia accent. It’s very specific to that region which includes Richmond where Edgar Allen Poe was from. Considering that Harry is British makes it even more impressive.
@KevinWWall@ABC Completely agree. The noise is so irritating and you can’t hear any of the play by play or commentary. Must be a sound technician that screwed up cuz it wasn’t bad on ABC earlier. I just do t understand why they haven’t corrected it yet.
What’s up with ABC’s coverage of #UGAvsClemson? Been watching games all weekend and this is the worst sound we’ve ever heard. Seems like the field mic is keyed and you can’t hear most of the play by play because the bands are so loud.Anyone else finding this very hard to watch?
