It just seems hypocritical for Nancy Pelosi to call for fining her colleagues for avoiding the capitol metal detector and then avoiding it herself. YMMV.You link goes nowhere.? Without proof (which doesn't include hearsay), this is disinformation.? You are again using disinformation to support your inaccurate call of hypocrisy re: the decision to require members to go through a magnetometer.? And honestly, so the bleep what?? All courthouses I've been in since 2001 require this.? What's the big deal??? Nancy Pelosi wants $5,000 fines for lawmakers who ignore metal detectors, dodge Capitol securityWhy did you include this??? IMO, spreading disinformation, made up for the purpose of further vilifying a woman who has been a target of violence for years and who was very recently just literally hunted down by a violent mob intent on execution is reprehensible behavior on your part.? Laws to ban guns from the whole of the Capital grounds were instituted in 1967 by Lyndon B. Johnson.? And you're blaming Nancy?? Do your homework!? (Another thing I don't respect—you post lies and lies and lies, which could easily be fact checked with a few keystrokes—your purpose is to vilify and nothing else.? That's dangerous behavior and I don't condone it.) The Capital Police Board was allowed to create exceptions.? The exceptions were for firearms confined to member offices.? Firearms transported across the grounds had to be unloaded and securely wrapped. All firearms had to comply with DC gun laws, which included registration.??Guns were always completely banned from legislative chambers!!? The fact that certain Pubs are flouting the rules already isn't Nancy's fault. (For example, Boebert's gun wasn't registered in DC and she could have been arrested for that.) The police also have the authority to arrest those bringing guns on to the floor. Instead of all that drama, Pelosi put in additional security.? Boebert, Gohmert, Greene, and Biggs at a minimum are the reason the honor system no longer suffices.? And, then, like teenagers, they disrespect the Capital police and try and go around the magnetometer?? They'd be arrested anywhere else, thrown out, and refused further entry.? They should consider themselves lucky and grow up.? ? And you should too, IMO.? ? -- Em |

Re: 4K, Atmos and FLAC
开云体育Do you have a 4K TV yet?? Mine is over 4 years old.? Need to update to an HDR capable set.? Too much "black crush" on some content.? The November "Black Friday" prices included the HDR version of the set I have for $150.? I was tempted but thought I might prefer to spend a little more.? Like my current set it too was 55".These days you have to try to buy an HD set because most TVs on sale are 4K.? I have three 4K action cams (only one is real) and my new Android phone has a 4K camera. Netflix charges extra for 4K,? Amazon and Hulu don't.? I dropped Netflix because of their "4K Tax" and let them know it.? In fact many other streaming services don't charge extra for 4K either.? About 4 years ago a small streaming outfit I helped out a little told me they were already getting sent 4K masters of movies to stream on 1TB hard drives.? Most of their movies were low budget indies. On 2/12/21 9:09 AM, WillyTex via

Re: Movie at the Ellipse
开云体育Yeah I was going to say... the movie was scary, no doubt about it. ?What I find most troubling is this insistence on all the darkness, scary music and traumatic scenes right out of a bad dystopian sci-fi novel. ??During that walk-in scene, did you notice how overweight and out of shape he looked?
