I received two pieces of advice when I was (much) younger..
1) A million things can happen after midnight, none of them good...and
2) If you aren’t in bed by 11 p.m., it’s time to go home..
He’s 22. You were never at parties in the wee hours when you were 22?
Not much good happens after midnight
I saw some pics on line of the location.....looked a little sketchy to me.
Why can’t these athletes realize the importance of sleep at a decent hour? Nothing good happens after 2A.
Uh, nope. I was married, working and had a young son.
I was working a tough job at 22 with long hours, so college partying was behind me. But, at 21? That was a different story.
Sad. The reality is that the vast majority of murdered blacks are killed by other blacks. Yet you have Biden propagating a political narrative that the reason is a failure of democracy and white racism. The problem will never be solved as long as blacks and their leaders embrace this nonsense and avoid accountability. BTW most felonies including murders in these communities do not result in an arrest or a conviction. These young men are killed and the bottom line is no one, with the excetpion of the families, really cares.
Condolences to family and friends. I hope those responsible for this horrible crime are brought to justice.
I see the customary GoFundMe is already up.
Sequence: (1) You disrespected me by looking at me “that way” (2) I kill you by shooting you in the head (3) You die (4) I run. Rinse...repeat.
I recommend the roast guinea pig with fingerling potatoes and seasoned quinoa salad.
Your number one is often misquoted...Nothing good happens after midnight outside the home...I have had some very good things happen after midnight at home. :).
If you hang around zoo animals long enough you're going to get pissed on and poo flung at you. FIND BETTER FRIENDS!!!!
Blacks should avoid other blacks. especially at 3:30 am.
“after midnight we gonna let it all hang out”
Delany, Bonnie and Friends... with eric clapton right?
A very tough case of “Mama Told Me Not To Come”, I suppose.
But, heck, it can happen in mid-afternoon at a HS graduation ceremony in Rush Limbaugh’s hometown...
