    How is he trolling? Is it because he's stating an opinion that is different than yours?
    I don't see any violations in his posts.

    This has been a multi faceted issue. We can go down the rabbit hole of why this happens.  IMO, the issue is culture. How many of these shooters were raised without a father in their lives? How many were loners addicted to social media, fed endless "content", porn, identity politics, etc. This is a recipe for disaster.  When I was in school, these issues were non existent.  Now, we can argue about how to deal with the root of the problem, but the bottom line is that these things can and will  happen.  Now how do we deal with it at the door of our schools?  As much as I don't like comparing the usa with another country,  but Israel dealt with this issue by having well armed IDF at each school ready for anything. I think we should follow this model.  The last time they had a school shooting was may 15th 1974. And they have psycho Hamas to deal with, not just wack jobs around town. Also balistic rated doors and glass for the actual school rooms. Of course it's all about money, yea it will cost billions, but we just forked over 56B to a foreign country. What are our priorities?  Other countries or our own kids?

    codenamerich reacted to Chuck in OC Register: Angels reliever Keynan Middleton takes a knee during Anthem   
    Just when baseball had a chance to unite people struggling through a pandemic & civil unrest this shit happened.
    I won't go into it much, most of you know my politics & where I stand, but I disagree with anyone who kneels during the anthem and I wholeheartedly am opposed to BLM the organization.
    All Lives Matter. Period! Including the Black Police & Black Men & Children who were gunned down by Black thugs in the streets. Until BLM stands against crimes against their own and against creating more racial divide and hate toward law enforcement, they're nothing but angry political activists more defined as a Marxist hate group who have explicit stated goals of dismantling America as we know it and replacing it with a socialist doctrine. BLM wasn't even for Black senator Tim Scott's police reform bill. These cities are run by Democratic mayors & state Governors! The same politicians who are silent about the high crime rates in their streets and do nothing, yet they want to defund law enforcement.
    I digress..
    I'm with you @tchula.
    Keep this stuff out of sports. There's enough protests in the streets and on local and national news networks. We don't need this in the game!

    codenamerich reacted to Chuck in Devin Nunes is an insincere, freedom-infringing, sycophantic and wholly unscrupulous piece of garbage.   
    I'm responsible for changing the thread title. You're lucky you got "piece of work" out of me. I love Devin Nunes and how he takes a massive Schiff on the entire democratic panel at these impeachment hearings. I think most of you liberals are some triggered snowflakes and funny, but I stay out of this forum for good reason.
    As I said in other threads, title your threads respectfully because they're fed to our homepage www.AngelsWin.com. 
    This is primarily an Angels website not a social media outlet like Twitter or Facebook for you to take a Schiff on people without consequence. Respect the privilege you have to talk politics here without causing problems or I can make this political forum go fully private or away for good.

    No, it's their job to confirm and verify what they hear hear, and then report it accurately.  It's not to pass rumors.  Anything short of that is lazy.

    Hey AW!
    The names' Rich. Im from HB. I have followed the Angels since I was a kid. Born in 74' My first recollection of being into the team was around 79-80. My dad was a big time Angels fan growing up in socal. He used to follow the team all the way back into the PCL days and went to many games as a kid at Wrigley. Its also where I get my intense distain for the Dogs per him.
    When I was a kid I'd say my favorite players were Rod Carew and Bobby Gritch. One of the most memorable games I got the chance to attend was the last start Nolan Ryan had as a ranger at the Big A.  Also the elimination game against the Sux a few years back. 
    Ive been a lurker on AW since 08 for the most part. I used to have an old account, but I thought Id introduce myself again since there are so many new members these days.
