    The right on this forum is loaded down with insufferable idiots. 

    1. That cover is obviously fake

    2. Hitler was man of the year in 1938, not 31. 

    3. Man of the year is not complementary. It's a measure of importance. Even Donald Trump has been named man of the year.

    Time even said, verbatim:

    "...the greatest threatening force that the democratic, freedom-loving world faces today."

    Keywest is an insufferable moron.  

    Dees the year change FACTS? The left and Time magazine clearly supported Hitler at one point! Now, you have massive selective outrage that you think supports your twisted ideology, instead of having outrage against all of it.

    Jone went on to tell the rapper that he had a “Hitler fetish” and as the show cut to a commercial break, Jones told him that he did not like Nazis or Hitler, to which West shockingly replied, “I like Hitler.”

     

    West, who plans on running for president in 2024, later added: “They did good things too, we’ve got to stop dissing the Nazis all the time.”

    And he added: “The Jewish media has made us feel like the Nazis and Hitler have never offered anything of value to the world.”

    After the shocking interview, the Twitter account for the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee deleted a tweet that said “Kanye. Elon. Trump.” The tweet was posted in October, and the account had been under pressure to remove the tweet as West continued making antisemitic remarks.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/11/17/originalism-guns-supremecourt-domestic-violence/

     

    By Ruth Marcus,  November 17, 2022

     

    In May, Louisville police were called to deal with a domestic violence complaint against a man named Litsson Perez-Gallan. The alleged victim, the mother of Perez-Gallan’s child, “states she was sitting on the bed holding their child and perp struck her on the left side of her face,” an officer wrote. “Vic then sat the baby down on the bed and vic stated perp then drug her to the bathroom and struck her in the face again and then began hitting her in the rib area. Vic had red marks on the left side of her face, a small laceration on her lip and pain around her chin area.”

    The criminal justice system — a system that has too often ignored or underplayed domestic violence — worked, up to a point. Perez-Gallan was subjected to a restraining order. It barred him from being within 500 feet of his alleged victim or communicating with her.

    In addition — and this is the subject of this column — the order prohibited Perez-Gallan from having a firearm.

    The next month, Perez-Gallan was stopped while driving an 18-wheeler in Texas, near the border with Mexico. In his backpack, he had a stolen Sig Sauer pistol; in his wallet, a copy of the court order stating his conditions of release. He was charged with violating a federal law that prohibits gun possession by those under domestic violence restraining orders.

    So far, so good? Not in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s ruling this year in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen. The six-justice conservative majority, rejecting New York’s concealed-carry licensing law, said that the gun regulations had to be based on, or similar to, those that existed historically to pass constitutional muster. Without a historical analogue, the gun law violates the Second Amendment.

    You might be able to guess where this is heading. Turns out, in Colonial times and beyond, authorities didn’t take domestic violence seriously. So, Perez-Gallan’s lawyer did what lawyers do: He seized on Bruen to argue that the law violates Perez-Gallan’s Second Amendment rights.

    “The American Revolution secured the rights of white men to be protected from interference by the government in their private affairs,” wrote the lawyer, Shane O’Neal. After the revolution, he argued, “the newly minted American States moved away from laws in England and the New England colonies that punished domestic violence. Instead, practices that protected women and children from maltreatment by male heads of house were discarded as incompatible with a newfound sanctity for the family — a private sphere outside of the reach of government.” He quoted a historian: “Courts became notably reluctant to impose constraints on men’s abusive treatment of their household dependents.”

    And no surprise: With domestic violence not seen as a problem, there isn’t much evidence of founding-era rules that prohibited the possession of firearms by those accused of it. “Our founders would never have anticipated disarming people accused but not convicted of domestic violence,” O’Neal argued.

    That’s right: Because the law then countenanced abusing women, it cannot be interpreted to protect them now.

    Defending his client zealously is O’Neal’s job. Interpreting the Constitution both faithfully and reasonably is the judge’s job, and here is where things really went off the rails. U.S. District Judge David Counts found this month that the federal law violates the Second Amendment and ordered Perez-Gallan’s indictment dismissed.

    “Domestic abusers are not new,” noted Counts, who was originally nominated by President Barack Obama and renominated by President Donald Trump. “But until the mid-1970s, government intervention — much less removing an individual’s firearms — because of domestic violence practically did not exist. … Glaringly absent from the historical record — from colonial times until 1994 — are consistent examples of the government removing firearms from someone accused (or even convicted) of domestic violence.”

    This is what the Supreme Court has wrought, with its maniacal focus on originalism and its even more blinkered insistence that the hunt for “original public meaning” must be confined to a search for historical analogues. Never mind that the Founding Fathers didn’t conceive of ghost guns produced by 3D printers, or extended magazines — or rights for women, for that matter.

    How absurd is this? Counts recites the historical punishments meted out for wife-beating: a 1672 case in which a man was sentenced to be “whipped with ten stripes” or a provision of the 1870s California penal code that subjected spouse abusers to “not less than twenty-one lashes on the bare back.” Yet surely even the most die-hard originalists would conclude that a modern-day whipping law constitutes “cruel and unusual” punishment under the Eighth Amendment, whatever happened back in the day.

    The aftershocks of Bruen are just beginning to work their way through the lower courts; Counts’s ruling might not stand. Even under the high court’s grudging approach to gun regulation, it is possible to uphold this restriction. The court in Bruen emphasized that the Second Amendment protects the right of “ordinary, law-abiding, adult citizens” to carry guns outside the home. Someone arrested for assaulting an intimate partner and subjected to a protective order issued by a judge is neither ordinary — let’s hope — nor law-abiding. And, as the Justice Department argued in the Perez-Gallan case, the Second Amendment was “adopted against a historical backdrop that allowed disarming dangerous persons.”

    But the evidence of fallout from Bruen is alarming. Last month, a federal judge in New York invalidated a state gun law passed in the aftermath of Bruen that restricted guns at summer camps, among other places; he reasoned that there weren’t such camps in Colonial times. In September, Counts struck down a federal law that prohibited those indicted on felony charges, but not yet convicted, from possessing guns. “There are no illusions about this case’s real-world consequences — certainly valid public policy and safety concerns exist,” he acknowledged. “Yet Bruen framed those concerns solely as a historical analysis. This Court follows that framework.”

    I wrote after the summer camp ruling that this was “originalism as parody.” But that understated the situation. This is originalism as insanity.

    So, it's Trump's fault for appointing Judges to uphold the Constitution? The leftist loon logic: A loon shoots someone, it's the guns (tools) fault but a loon in a car (tool) runs over people in Charlottesville, it's the drivers fault.............Got it! (leftist loon ideological logic)

    crickets is all you will get from the right. the bare bones truth is they do not care as long as they get to keep their assault weapons. i mean hell we have been praying over this for two or three decades now? and christians say what. god first. then family. then country. i might have that order wrong but if these cats think jesus is ok with their actions while people kill our own school children just because they want the right to bear arms tells me all i need to know. they do not care period. i am so sure jesus is not down with this shooting and gun crap at all. because the bottom line is people are dying because of this stance. and idiot with a brain should pretty much understand you are putting your love of guns against the right of a child to live. ther care about those unborn babies but they just do not give a damn about those precious children getting gunned down regularly. it is sickening. if you ignore what they say and watch what they do it is clear as a bell.

    Guns are nothing more than a tool, just like a hammer. This weekend there will be double digit murders in Chicago (99% will be black/black crime), which has the strictest gun laws in the country and every single one of the shootings will be from unregistered and illegal guns. The left continues to ignore and whistle by the graveyard as to the real problem because it doesn't fit or support your twisted ideological agenda!

    The problem is the left's total degradation of society that everybody is a victim and nobody is responsible for their actions, the lefts destruction of the nuclear family and payment to keep the father out of the home. 3...2....1.......Go with the typical leftist twisted talking point to ignore the real problems YOU created!

    My guess is he's juggling offers from multiple schools right now. He should not have lost last night but he's done well with a depleted roster this season.

    If we can land him and pair him with a strong DC the rest of the SEC is on notice.

    I 100% agree! Kiffin has shown little to no interest in building an elite defense at this point but if he hires a strong DC and put focus on defense with his offense, the rest of the SEC and country in on notice

    My Sunday morning reflections FWIW. My preferred list has narrowed after yesterday. Feeze is off and Kiffin is off.  Caddy is now #1 and if he keeps it close with bammer with a banged up team I say give him a shot at the HC job. Get a proven OC and DC behind him and turn them loose. Give them two years to recruit and turn this ship around.

    Freeze and Kiffin lost last night, so they are no longer on your flavor of the second list? You are about as illogical as Mickey that doesn't want Sanders because "He lacks major D1 experience" but he wants Grimes that has absolutely ZERO head coaching experience at any level.

    Say what you want about him at Auburn but he has UCF looking really good. Much better than the sh!~ show that's happening here.  Maybe he wasn't a SEC coach but damn....

    He hasn't had enough time to deplete their talent yet. It didn't happen over night at AU but many years of poor OL recruiting and mainly OT finally took it's toll at AU.

    Not as a first tier choice. But suppose Deion and Lane, etc., don’t want to come. I think he’d succeed.

    Not NO but hell NO! If we strike out on the top 3 of Kiffin, Freeze and Sanders (which I seriously doubt happens), I take a second tier chance on Jamey Chadwell

    Having to give Lane like 10m a year doesn’t feel wonderful

    Plus, Auburn would be on the hook for his buyout at OM. Do I think Lane would be an upgrade and make AU better? Yes, but at what cost? Until he proves otherwise, he lack the willingness to build an elite defense and I think he is a consist 8 - 10 win coach regardless of where he coaching.

    Isn't signing the top 18 recruits in the history of JSU akin to being the valedictorian of summer school? That's quite a low bar there.

    No, it's proof you don't want to accept that Sanders has greatly over achieved at previous irrelevant small program with an extremely limited budget in an unbelievable short time. Additionally, he assembled/attracted a remarkable staff with extremely limited budget that would rival most P5's and is better than the staff Harsin assemble.

    First, I reject the proposition that Democrats don't - or didn't - condemn violent riots, such as occurred with the "BLM" riots.  That's BS.

    As is the inference that somehow Democrats bear responsibility for racially-based riots then or now.  BS.

    And regardless of the allegation that DePage is a right wing supporter, it is clear to any objective observer that there is a tendency among many MAGA supporters to promote violence as a political solution - thus all the weaponry and tactical gear.  Patriot Front and Oathkeepers are far better examples of this phenomenon than a single act by an attempted murderer.  (Although delving into his background is fair game.)

    And any reasonable person would recognize MAGA's have demonized people like Pelosi - and ironically enough - Pence, thus their stated intentions of killing them both during the Jan.6 riots.

    And it's not just me who recognizes this, as evidenced by some of the opinion pieces I have posted.  Obviously, you can choose to be blind to this as you wish.

    Time will tell.  Either this trend of MAGAs to promote or threaten violence will attenuate or it will grow.  I expect it to grow.

     

    Chuck Schumer:  shouting that Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh would "pay the price" for refusing to rule the way liberals wanted.

     

    Nancy Pelosi: praised left-wing activists for channeling "their righteous anger into meaningful action.

     

    Maxie Waters: Instructs a crowd of angry activists to harass members of the Trump administration and supporters if they saw them in person

     

    Charles Booker (D): wears a noose in a new ad criticizing Rand Paul

    Violence as an answer to injustice or, violence as a means of overturning a valid election, violence for the sake of refusing to reckognize injustice,,,

    When the neo Nazis, the Confederates, the Proud Boys, the Patriot Prayer, the Oath Keepers are on your side,,,, you should question your beliefs.  When you hold up Donald Trump as a good righteous, honest symbol of your beliefs,,, you should question your beliefs.

    Violence is wrong but, the motivations are still important.  Context still matters.  And don't forget, there are multiple examples of right wing groups promoting violence at some of the social justice protests.

    He has limited coaching experience period and none of it is anywhere close to being at a P5 program.

    Again, Grimes has a long resume of being a marginal recruiter at best with big budgets and ZERO head coaching experience. Sanders in a very SHORT time has proven to be an outstanding recruiter with extremely limited budget (signed the top 18 recruits in the history of JSU in less than 24 months), assemble a very talented staff (better than Harsin's) with limited budget at small program, head coaching experience, it is beyond clear kids WANT to play for him and he would be a PR machine (unlike Grimes).

    Grimes was an excellent recruiter at Auburn and has continued to be at his other stops. He's recruited and won against the best in the business. Sanders has landed a few notable recruits by selling the "Let's help HBCU's" thing. He wouldn't be able to use that sales pitch at Auburn. Grimes has a track record of successful recruiting at the highest level. Sanders has a cult following that speculates that he can succeed at something he's never tried.

    So, it doesn't matter who AU hires or how many games they lose, AU will still recruit well? That seems to be what you are saying.

    Grimes was a marginal recruiter while at Auburn and I seriously doubt he is remotely in the same recruiting league as Sanders. I find it really strange people want Grimes that has never been a head coach and disregard Sanders by stating he has limited head coaching experience.

    The more I think about this hire and the potential candidates mentioned, it becomes clear to me that the best choice for Auburn and our immediate future is Lane Kiffin. Does he have his flaws and baggage? For sure and most coaches do; it's a matter of how well they perform on the field and if those issues impede their success. Kiffin has a lot of support and is believed to be the number one option by many of the BOT and Cohen as well. It's a simple matter of cost and doing our due diligence to evaluate other candidates thoroughly.

    Let's take a look at Lane Kiffin's football career:

    • 1994-96 Quarterback at Fresno State
    • 1997-98 Assistant at Fresno State
    • 1999 GA at Colorado State
    • 2000 DQC at Jacksonville Jaguars
    • 2001 TE Coach at USC
    • 2002-03 WR Coach at USC
    • 2004 Passing Game Coordinator & WR Coach at USC
    • 2005-06 OC/WR Coach at USC
    • 2007-08 HC of the Oakland Raiders
    • 2009 HC at Tennessee (7-6)
    • 2010-13 HC at USC (28-15)
    • 2014-16 OC/QB Coach at Alabama
    • 2017-2019 HC at Florida Atlantic (27-13)
    • 2020-present HC at Ole Miss (23-9)

    We see a journey of a coaching career for sure but Auburn has never had a coach leave for a better job. It just doesn't happen and I don't believe Lane would leave Auburn for any other position. The money will be too good and the resources are just as good as anywhere else when we're winning. What Lane has managed at bout FAU and OM is impressive for two schools that were really struggling before he took them over.

    Regarding recruiting, which might be the most important factor, Kiffin has been around the game long enough to know the process and he has seen it done at the highest levels first hand in the early 2000s at USC and later at Alabama. His work in the portal has made Ole Miss a bubble playoff team and a threat to win the division all while having a mediocre quarterback in Jaxon Dart. What's better? He has proven this year he can have a run-first offense even with two starting freshmen at both tackle spots. Speaking of running, Quinshon Judkins is someone that Harsin believed we didn't have room for... as a true freshman Judkins currently has 1k+ yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. He is a player I suspect might follow Kiffin were Auburn to land him; it would also be my hope that those young Offensive Tackles would follow as well.

    Those that have read my thread about the current state of the roster know just how important this recruiting class and portal cycle will be for the future of the program. We undersigned last year and with the new portal rules we could legitimately add almost 40 new players to the roster before next season. Auburn could look like a totally new program in just one offseason.

    It is my firm belief that the next hire has to be a name that every recruit in the southeast knows without having to look them up on Google. We can't hire another Idaho somebody that looks promising but no one actually knows. Instead lets pony up the cash and take the man who has historic cellar dweller Ole Miss (8-1) in the SEC West, drives Saban absolutely nuts, and has proven he can run an effective offense literally everywhere he has been. Pair him with a DC like Muschamp (if at all possible) or T-Will (who has been crushing it at UCF) and let's fly.

    Lane Kiffin could be for Auburn what Lincoln Riley is for USC.

    Lane Kiffin's salary in 2022 is 7.25M with an 100K raise each year through 2025, Mississippi doesn't allow state employees contracts to exceed 4 years. His buyout is most likely in the 15M - 21.5Mish range. I really don't see Auburn paying a 15M buyout to Harsin, 15M- 21.5M for Kiffin's buyout and give Kiffin a 10M per year long term contract (Auburn would be out over 40M before he ever coaches a game! 

    At this point, Kiffin hasn't remotely shown a willingness or desire to build a National Championship caliber type defense or willingness to spend the time to recruit a large number of elite HS talent. He has proven to be a great offensive mind but I think he will always be an 8 - 10 win coach regardless of what school he's coaching.

    Sanders would be a recruiting juggernaut at a traditional top 15 school and assemble/attract one of the top 5 coaching staffs or better in CFB with their budget, he's extremely competitive and would be a PR machine. the staff he assembled a JSU is much better than Harsin's and better than most P5's with their limited budget.

    So, I know some folks on here aren’t big fans. But Blackerby suggested that this game is pretty much it. If we don’t win here, we likely go winless the rest of the way. I had us splitting Arky and A&M, and beating WKU. But I think he’s actually right. 
     

    Let’s say we lose this game. 3-5

    Moo State- Stacks up well against us. Linebackers have been awful this year, and they’re going to get torched on short passes. Likely a loss for us. 3-6

    At this point, we’d be 3-6 with our second hardest game of the season still on our schedule. This is where we’d probably see more players throw in the towel on the season, making A&M an almost sure loss. 3-7

    Now, we’re out of bowl eligibility with nothing to play for. More players quit. We have no fight left and lose to WKU. 3-8. 
    Then Bama… 3-9. 
     

    But, if we win this weekend, even with a probable loss against MSU, we still have a shot at being bowl eligible with 2 winnable home games left. We could end 6-6. 

    Either way, I think Harsin is gone barring winning all the rest of our games (Bama included), which isn’t going to happen. But 6-6 looks like less of a dumpster fire, and may help the next coach recruit a little easier. 

    Thoughts?
     

    The Hogs game and the rest of the 2022 season is irrelevant at this point, except beating bammer for rival purpose. This team will NOT make a bowl, recruiting is a complete disaster, appears another flood (depth) of players hitting the portal, a coaching staff that can't coach and a head coach that I think has quit! Auburn must get the right AD in place ASAP and the right head coach to start moving forward again. Auburn can't have another year of Harsin, we are now one of the two worst teams in the SEC
