This trio also had this attitude that they were something special because they were married. It is hard to explain, but they thought that fact made them better than the rest of us.
It's a control thing.

Similar to how proud a rancher is when he gets his first steer.

They get married, and then convince
themselves that being single sucked
and married is where it's at. They must
do this to stay married. If they admit
the truth, that these days single is
always better, bye bye marriage.

In my parents generation, a man needed
a wife to cook and clean and do laundry.
Now we don't, all that stuff is easy to do
yourself. Throw kids in there, and then
you need a wife.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Brings new meaning to the question, "why do fathers cry at weddings". Just so darn happy somebody else is taking over for them.


Of the two daughters, the other one which I reported to was easier to deal with. But I still cannot figure out how upper management signed off on this. IIRC they were imported from the client and were being paid by the client. But how did the client sign off on it?ey

I kind of hope they ended up back in Vegas working the credit department at Circus Circus!

I find that most people get married for the wrong reasons.

People should live together for a minimum of two years, and really play house before considering either continuing the relationship, agreeing on a contract to live together and share, or if they understand the odds against marriage working out the way they plan, after enough time...go ahead.

Dallas cop claims door was ajar but neighbors say he would never do that, he had unique door mat there and he was unlikely to have walked to the door without turning a light on so she would have seen more than just some 'shadow' which is probably why she shot so straight.

She should and probably will go down for this. Being a cop has zero to do with it from what little I am reading here.

BLM seems quiet on the matter.

Oh, I am sure she will go down for it, its just will it be for Manslaughter or for Murder. Even her own self serving statements do not mention seeing any weapon or being in fear of being shot or stabbed. Cops standing firm behind her but even white Texans are shocked at her actions and the favoritism. It is not just Blacks who object to cops barging into their homes and shooting them. Whites ain't exactly any too keen on the idea either.
