- Guess whether the Senate or the House took the time to vote last night on a proclamation that "In God We Trust" is still the official motto of the U.S.? Guess which news organization led with the "American people can rest assured" after the vote? Easy answer.
- There's a criminal trial going on in Decatur for Felon in Possession of a Firearm, and it sounds as though he possessed the gun in his home. To me, that means the guy simply failed to wait long enough. (He could legally possess a gun in his home five years after being released from parole. Edit for source: Texas Penal Code 46.04(a).)
- I think I'm the only person who thought Bank Of America's proposed (then dropped) policy of charging $5 a month to use your debit card for purchases wasn't all that unreasonable. If given the choice of not having that function or paying $5, I'd pay the $5.
- Saw in the obituaries that Tyler Trey Reasoner, 28, of Bridgeport died. His brother died six years ago in a four person fatality wreck in Decatur.
- Prediction: One of the GOP candidates will call out Rick Perry on his immigration policy after the death of the Carrollton girl at the alleged hands of an the illegal alien.
- I laughed at a commercial for the new Muppets movie when it had of them in a group shot, reacting with their mouths wide open, to the announcer asking, "You realize you guys aren't famous anymore, right?"
- Sports: Play by Play man Babe Laufenberg said on The Fan yesterday that the Cincinnati Bengals offered the Cowboys a first round draft pick last year for TE Martellus Bennett and Dallas turned it down. Really? Wow.
- When all is said and done, the Herman Cain sexual harassment "scandal" may be the best thing to happen to him. He's getting a ton of free press at this critical time in the campaign. (But it'll get interesting if one of the ladies gets out of the confidentially agreement as she wants per her lawyer who was on CNN last night.)
- I don't know how many people are interested in Houston DA elections, a runaway grand jury, and crazy politics, but I found this to be good stuff.
- The Decatur Eagles: Still unbeaten. Still not in the AP Top Ten.
- Funny: The one of the Occupy Dallas people unplugged the lights on the Fox 4 live remote crew this morning after being disturbed from sleep.
- Non-story of the day: TCU official calls campaign sign of Graham "Cracker" McMillan potentially offensive although no one else on campus seems to care. Then again, the campus could be described as 98% cracker.
- Justin Bieber might be a Baby Daddy. But apparently the mother forgot to think about Bieber being underage at the time of conception.

Justin Justin Justin wrap it up man.
How about a not-so-funny from the Occupy Dallas:
There was a 14-year old runaway that was assaulted by an adult this weekend there at these protests.
If you check out reports from all of the protests, there are assaults, drug use and whatever you want to name going on.
How much of a beating would it be to have to go to a school function with a foam headed idiot?
Mr. Green, you know that state law should not trump Federal. Felon is a felon forever unless some judge says they arent a felon anymore. I'm sure that he/she had the firearm to protect their home for lawful reasons (Drugs). Further you know Police randomly go search homes of felons for firearms. Nice try, do the crime do the time.
Girl of the day kind of looks like Taylor Swift - only shorter and her face is different.
"Felon in Possession of a Firearm"
So the GD police are going after people for protecting their homes and families now?! Uh, can you say Gestapo!? WAKE UP PEOPLE, and see what is happening!!!
Barry, before you start the bullshit whiners crowd you ought to get your facts straight. This case involves a guy who took a firearm to a FIGHT and tossed it when the cops showed up. You probably made your comment based on the defense attorney's voir dire/opening statement, I'm sure. I didn't hear either but I know how they work. The FACTS in this case won't support what you just posted. Maybe you ought to sit through a trial before you speculate about it.
8:57 AM
If you actually read the column, then you would know that it wasn't an assault. The "victim" presented herself as a 19yo, and had consentual sex- HER words. Nice try Slapnutz.
9:32 Please tell the other ADA's hello for me.
Double wrapped Bieber.
Liken 9:32 correcting Barry!!
God hates moneychangers..
9:11 AM
Jesus, man. Are you a damned cummunist or what!?
No problem,9:43. You do the same for me for your defense brethren.
"Prediction: One of the GOP candidates will call out Rick Perry on his immigration policy after the death of the Carrollton girl at the alleged hands of an the illegal alien."
He can back it up with the all executions of illegal aliens he has already put to death.
The nerve of that international court trying to stop the last one he put to death still makes me mad.
"TCU 98% cracker"...I saw the TCU percussion band (drums etc.) and there wasn't a single person of "color" in it. Even the steel drum group - all white. They're good but no non-whites? Really?
When all is said and done, the Herman Cain sexual harassment "scandal" may be the best thing to happen to him. He's getting a ton of free press at this critical time in the campaign. (But it'll get interesting if one of the ladies gets out of the confidentially agreement as she wants per her lawyer who was on CNN last night.)
She will come out, along with others. Its over for Cain. Its between Rick and the RINO Romney now.
9:34 Nice try yourself Slapnutz
She was still 14 whether she lied or not.
And wasn't the guy a sexual predator who "WHOOPS" forgot to register himself as one?
The motto just begs the question - who's god or gods? The Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Greek, Apache?
Many assume Christian but the motto covers any of peoples' many versions of God.
No one in any state can say anything about Governor Perry on illegal immigrants until...
1)They can prove that no illegal immigrant is issued a driver's license in their state.
2) They can prove no illegal immigrant is receiving free healthcare or any free government assistance in their state.
Barry: I read Sec. 46.04.(a) but I also recall that federal law trumps state law and that means that no matter what a convicted felon can not be in possession of a firearm even 200 years after the case is closed no matter what the felony is for. A felon looses the right to protect his or her self or their family with a gun even while inside their home no matter what when the verdict is or ever was guilty of a felony. If I or anonymous at 9:11 are wrong please illuminate.
If you check out reports from all of the protests, there are assaults, drug use and whatever you want to name going on.
Man, that's almost as bad as a Ted Nugent concert.
Rage
8:57 first slapnutz,
You said assualted, and that is the issue the second slapnutz is addressing. She may be underage and he may be a sexual predaor but she was not assualted.
Lmao somebody said Penal.
11:31 When it comes to the law, it's assaulted even though in "reality" it wasn't.
The law will trump every time.
10:39 Only ONE God...the Christians just don't know it yet. Same ultimate deity, many many ways to achieve 'salvation'. All are valid and acceptable to my God, not just Christianity. I couldn't believe in a god who played favorites based on where you were born!
of course you don't mind paying bank of america 5 dollars .....you are a fellow money grabber ...just like a doctor just like an insurance company just like a bank! I bet that you also do not mind paying the bank to cash their own check . that is what chase bank does now . I'm sure you'll be the first in line to open an account there too. people should remember banks already make money off of your money ....charging you to use your own money is a joke!
12:35 PM
And that's what is wrong with our "justice" system...
Name a time when they had a Ted Nugent concert blocking access to banks, restaurants, and other businesses.
If my goal is to try and create change in government and the financial industry I am probably going to lay off the hooch and not act like I am at a rock concert.
I like Pizza
Is1:26 Is it what's wrong with the justice system or what's wrong with society that someone complained enough to make the laws?
I personally blame society.
We REALLY need another revolution...
Ahhhh, just found out a "living on unemployment for 2 years loser" acquaintance went to buy a gun and was refused on the sale. The loser doesn't have no criminal history either.
LMAO!!!! Big hand slap goes out to the gun dealer for refusing a worthless bum who refuses to get a job a gun.
Got a simple, free-market answer to all you people worried about what the bank charges: Uh, remove your business. Take your money out. I don't agree with the Occupy idiots who want everything given to them, but on the other hand, let's not cry for regulation and government intervention in the free market place when all you gotta do is TAKE YOUR MONEY OUT. That's why Bank of America backed off the debit card fee. That's why Netflix is backflipping to the tune of losing 800,000 customers. Let free enterprise work, baby.
I can only hope the republicans can expedite the voting to keep the name of our beloved country as the United States of America.. before those lefty Liberals change it to Peace, Love and Drugs of the Northern hemisphere..Damn important stuff...Jobs and the economy can wait..In Fox we trust.
In response to Red Leatherman 10:41.
"A felon loses the right to protect themselves or their family.." what some do not take into consideration is the felony conviction of children or persons who committed their crimes while they were underage and yet are prosecuted as adults. A person under the age of 18 can not make legally binding decisions or join the military and fight for this country...a person under the age of 16 can not legally operate a motor vehicle without an adult(with exception of a hardship license), but a child of 14 for example, can commit an offense that can label them "felon" for the rest of their life. Well before any glimmer of future family to protect exists. In fact, studies now show that brain development continues throughout the teenage years into the early 20's. Bringing up the question, how do you sentence a person to a lifetime of adult labels and persecution when they are still classified a "child"
Response to Anonymous 9:11, there are countless felons that "do the time" and are then continually prosecuted by society afterward. And not just the actual felon, but their spouses, parents, children, siblings, and friends face ridicule just for associating.
Bandwagons are comforting unless you are the one under the wheels!
3:31 While its true you can be a convicted felon as a child in the justice system. Most of those that get convicted have committed a pretty serious crime, murder armed robbery. What % of felons were children when convicted and still show a felony on their record as adults? Not many
There is a reason the law makers have set a standard on the federal and state level when it comes to felons with a firearm.( repeat offenders) When it comes to feeling sorry for a felon it wont happen here. Just ask Barry how many kid he convicted? The number is below 10 I bet.
Can I get a Hell Yeah for Penal!!
Ted Nugent tells his fans to boycott a lot of things at his concerts.
i live in the us and i can assure you that is not my motto. nothing real godly about how we go around killing more civilians than any al quaeda group ever have and ever will. good job soldiers on that whole iraq and afghanistan thing.
I know several felons that own guns,carry them all the time and buy hunting permits.What do the people think they kill deer doves and ducks with.the wardens never check them.
So what happens if the spouse of a felon buys a gun, but the felon uses it on an intruder? Does the felon still get charged for possession or is it self defense? I mean, are they seriously suppose to allow themselves to be killed in their home vs. facing prison time for protecting themselves?
...again i ask, why would/should decatur be in the anything top ten?
