Wendy Davis receives a death threat

The Texas Governor's race is starting to get interesting, as reports have recently showed that Democrat candidate Wendy Davis outraised Republican candidate Greg Abbott last month. This prompted one Johnny Bones to make the following comments on a thread on Greg Abbott's Facebook page:

"you libtards are wasting your time . you should pack it in and save your cash for a bus back to san fran. davis will never win in this state the numbers simply DO NOT EXIST. and even if they did some folks have a .50 cal head ache waiting for her. b*tch has (now pay attention to this) ZERO CHANCE. so GO YOUR COLLECTIVE AS*ES Back TO CALI."

After someone called him out on the death threat, Mr. Bones responded with this:

"I don't threaten b*tch"

First off, I find it kind of funny that Mr. Bonehead refers to liberals as "libtards," considering the fact he made 30 grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors in a single paragraph.

Secondly, how in the world can Mr. Boner's statement not be seen as a death threat?

He said, "...and even if they did some folks have a .50 cal head ache waiting for her..."

Care to clear that up, Mr. Bones?

"I don't threaten b*tch"

Very nice... Mr. Bony is right. He didn't threaten Wendy Davis. He was simply reporting the fact that if Wendy Davis won, someone would shoot and kill her. That doesn't mean it would be him. It would be like the following scenario:

Setting: At a bar named Drunken Fight Club

Bruno Macho: "If you ever talk that way to me again, you're dead! Do you hear me?"

Screech Scrawny: "Excuse me? Are you threatening me? Did everyone hear that? Nevermind, I have it recorded. Now I think it's time to call the police with that death threat."

Bruno: "Oh, no! That's not going to work! I didn't threaten you! Did anyone hear me say, 'If you ever talk that way to me again, I'll kill you!?!' No! I simply said, 'If you ever talk that way to me again, you're dead!' There's a huge difference!"

Screech: "Okay, I'll play along. So who would kill me then?"

Bruno: "I don't know - someone."

Screech: "You'd be the one wanting me dead, correct?"

Bruno: "Yeah, I guess..."

Screech: "So, let's piece two and two together here. You're the one that said I would be dead and are the one who wants me dead. So how can claiming I'll be dead if I ever talk to you a certain way again not be seen as a death threat?"

Bruno: "I don't know. I just..."

Screech: "Wanna go to jail?"

Bruno: "What kind of question is that? No, of course not!"

Screech: "Well, then - you just remember that the next time you think about following through with your threat. I'm told there's nothing quite like shower-time in prison, and judging by how you dropped that drink earlier, there may be nobody in there having a better time than you."

Bruno: "Dude, I'm gonna..."

Screech: "You're gonna what?"

Bruno: "Nothing..."

Screech: "That's what I thought, but wrong again. You're going to pay my tab. Thanks."

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Mentioned on Crooks and Liars and Hinterland Gazette!

Due to some tweets of mine, I got mentioned on the following two sites (all my tweets can be viewed here -  https://twitter.com/CraigRozniecki ): https://crooksandliars.com/2019/04/trump-gives-stupid-advice-george https://hinterlandgazette.com/2019/03/istandwithschiff-is-trending-after-donald-trump-led-gop-attack-on-adam-schiff-backfires-spectacularly.html

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
