    Also makes me wonder about those two deputies in Compton. It really does go to show that "news" that doesn't fit our own personal narrative may never penetrate our bubble because of social media. Throw in that most news stories might not make a broadcast or the front page without sufficient social media interest from all spectrums, and I can understand why a story that people firmly on the right or left are up in arms about, might not gain traction because there isn't enough universal social media traffic.

    Found it interesting that the U.S. Civil Rights Act was signed by LBJ on Aug. 6, 1965, the very same day the Admiral David Robinson was born.

    Wrestling and all the pseudo-wrestling bullshit need to be wiped off the ass of this nation.

    Boxing has always had.that, too, I guess, going back to the days of Jack Johnson and even before that.

    In more recent times, when Larry Holmes fought Gerry Cooney, I read there was a phone in Cooney's dressing room for a call from Ronald Reagan, but no such phone in Holmes ' dressing room.

    One officer, three counts of wanton endangerment.

    For putting the neighbors at risk.

    Good luck, Louisville.
