Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Coworker got the jab in January. Didn’t have any issues. Wednesday before last he figured since he hadn’t got the Covid it must work so he got the booster. By that Saturday the whole family was sick and all diagnosed with Covid on Sunday.
FIL got the booster last Tuesday. He’s now sick hacking up his lungs and feeling like shit which started Friday. He hasn’t tested but that shit right there is why I brought the Covid protocol with me for the holidays.
Here we are being exposed to the spike protein and having turkey day with my wife’s 82 year old grandmother who wisely said he’ll no to the vax. Wife told him to quit putting that fucking poison in his body. My parents aren’t listening worth a shit either.
Only 6% of Africa is vaccinated and “professionals” are “befuddled” by how they haven’t had the outbreaks the US and Europe are having.
I guess it takes a got damned rocket surgeon to figure out why the fuck this is happening.
FFS this shit pisses me off to no end.

Experts befuddled by 'mysterious' fact that Africa is less than 6% vaccinated but has avoided COVID disaster — unlike Europe and the US | Blaze Media
What is going on in Africa? That's the question that has so-called medical experts scratching their heads as they examine the COVID-19 data coming out of the continent. According to a report Friday from the Associated Press, while less than 6% of the people of Africa are vaccinated, the nations...

It’s always been true...never been treated any worse, anywhere, than in Morgantown. I’m a WV native...have experienced it too many times. Last time WVU came to Huntington to play, many of their fans wore t-shirts with a plane crashing with the caption...”We were...Marshall.” They are the worst...
Damn.
He definitely uses “Touch of Gray”, but the hair looks real my man.

Another thing for folks who know nothing of Enes Kanter, he's a Turk, and since he's criticized Erdogan, he became a target and can't go home.
Not unhinged, possessed. These people are sick. SKOL!
He keeps calling Lebron on his shit and I will give him my spare bedroom.
They can definitely read memes electronically now. Have you noticed when you go to copy a meme if you press on the word it will highlight and past the words only?
@MortgageHorn
my phone won’t respond as easily and struggles to autocorrect to words I use ALL THE TIME when it comes to sharing vital info with y’all or making a solid point on a HOT topic.

Is There a Chorus Building for DOJ to Look Into Possible Federal Charges Against Kyle Rittenhouse?
Derek Chauvin was indicted on federal charges in Minnesota after a Motion For New Trial was filed following his conviction in state court
One thing is certain about the Merrick Garland-led Justice Department of the Joe Biden Administration — they are clearly responsive to the demands of the “Social Justice Warrior” (SJW) demographic of the current Democrat Party establishment and identity-based interest groups.
Reading and listening to the post-verdict coverage of the jury’s exoneration of Kyle Rittenhouse, I fear the SJW types inside the Civil Rights Division of DOJ will prove themselves malleable enough to bend to the demands of the radical left.
It could be coincidental but the blanketing of the airwaves with this messaging seems to me to be more purposeful:

The use of the phrase "cross state lines" -- as if it's some inherently nefarious act that demonstrates evil intent rather than something people who live in border towns do every day -- was one of the most preposterous parts of the media's narrative deceit, and they can't stop. https://t.co/Tl6Yow1yLw

And this is what I is fear the messaging might be about: 18 U.S.C. Sec. 239:
This is the “Shepard Byrd Act Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009,” named after Matthew Shepard and Michael Byrd, two men whose murderers were motivated by their victim’s homosexuality (Shepard) and African-American race (Byrd).
Congress included a “Certification Requirement” in this statute — findings that must be made by the Attorney General before prosecution under this statute can be initiated. The certification required is as follows:
Note the disjunctive between (C) and (D). It is only necessary that the Attorney General certify that one of these factual circumstances apply before DOJ can bring a federal case under this statute.
Do not for a minute believe that DOJ has not been inundated, from outside and inside, with demands that the Civil Rights Division actively pursue a grand jury investigation of Kyle Rittenhouse, assuming they haven’t already started.
In my opinion, the facts of the case do not fit within the legislative intent behind the statute — there is no evidence that Rittenhouse was motivated in any respect by the race of any of the persons he shot. The simple fact is that none of them fit within the “protected” classes identified in the statute.
My fear is that the SJWs who now control DOJ will take a more expansive view of the statutory language, and will focus on the following:
I expect there to be an argument made that the two references in the statute to “any person” do not necessarily limit the application of the statute to circumstances where “any person” is the same individual. I expect there to be an effort to read the statute expansively and to argue that an injury caused to any victim if motivated by “hate”, falls within the statute even if the person injured or killed was not the person at whom the “hate” was directed.
The argument will be that the protests in Kenosha following the Blake shooting by Kenosha police were protests for racial justice, and a substantial number of the protesters were racial minorities.
The argument will be that an inference can be made that Kyle Rittenhouse came to Kenosha, arming himself along the way, with a motivation to stop or hinder these racial justice protesters, i.e., he was motivated to be out on the street with a firearm because of the racial composition of the protest groups.
When he used the AR15, he injured and killed others out of a motivation to stop or hinder protesters based on the race of the protester groups.
His conduct took place during the course of his travel across a State line.
To justify the certification of such a prosecution, they will likely rely on (C) — “the verdict or sentence obtained pursuant to State charges left demonstratively unvindicated the Federal interest in eradicating bias-motivated violence.”
The repetitive chorus in the media from talking heads and pundits — including some former federal prosecutors — about him “crossing state lines” seems likely to be the result of the wide circulation of “talking points” emphasizing that fact in a way that will be used to justify DOJ taking up the issue.
This would be an extraordinarily weak reading of the statutory language. But with the SJW types at Main Justice, winning isn’t always the point. The federal prosecution of Kyle Rittenhouse would be a vehicle by which to warn all counter-protesters who come out in response to “racial justice” grievance protests that they are risking federal prosecution by the Biden Justice Department in doing so.
The protests are justified because they are motivated by “injustice” on the part of police and white patriarchal society and privilege. But counter-protesters risk being illegal because they are motivated by racial animus directed at the protesters.
Those leading the Biden DOJ have already proven themselves willing to be the “Storm Troopers” for left-wing interest groups. Pursuing a prosecution of Kyle Rittenhouse would simply be another chapter in the same book.

They will only use the DOJ to keep their base energized. A whole lot of libs(not leftists) have seen through this charade, and some are mad at the media lies. Eyes have been opened, DOJ stepping in may push them over the edge
