So go through the case files; look for discrepancies, and file a formal complaint. There is no evidence of this, and in fact he was doing this for decades, so you have the results to analyze if you want.

Your arguments are based on conjecture

A friend of mine and her husband have two kinds, two houses, a very nice car, and somehow do all this on one income. Maaaaybe her husband makes serious bank, or maybe they’re able to fully cover their living expenses with rental income, but I’m not convinced. I can only assume that they’re just about living paycheck to paycheck.

How do you know “it is an incredibly profitable business” have you seen their books? And who cares if they make money by showing a judge being a decent human being? It’s not on your dime, why are you so butt hurt?

Then have the city post the channel on YouTube and make revenue.

The article was a hit job, no question. They quoted him as saying “his family has made millions and millions off providence” when in the article it says they don’t know how much they made.

I have zero problem with this, if RI wants to make money on it they can, they decided to let him run his show. Also, the author seems to write an awful lot about politics and has a conservative bent (pro law enforcement, anti teacher) so call me shocked a conservative is attacking a liberal for being a decent human being.

All 400,000 of them? Every single one?

I’ve more bad experiences with black men in my life than I have with cops, but it’s considered highly ignorant to stereotype ALL based on the actions of some. So why is this any different?

I think doing anything solely for the purpose of finding a date is not going to work. If you lean into your hobbies and interests, you’ll meet somebody who naturally likes those things as well, and it happens when you stop looking. You have to constantly be open and social. I’ve met some great folks while watching live music, maybe find a local band to start following, and check out the different venues they play.

RI beer club! They meet once at a month at a different brewery around the state. Everyone is very welcoming!

Yep. I met my wife playing MSS (when it was still RISSC) so I recommend it literally every time I see a post like this lol. We moved to SFAC with our group but eventually life got in the way and we had to stop playing. We are a little more competitive-minded but still had a lot of fun.

Join twenty one stories’ book club. Get out for Dash’s group bike rides. Go to the various trivia nights around the city. Volunteer at the farmer’s market, or with a animal rescue group. Join a community garden. Join a group like CARI (climate action RI) or another advocacy group. Join an improv group. Lots of options out there! If I was single and looking to mingle, this would be my playbook.

Every post similar to this has SFAC listed as a response, and there’s a really good reason for that. It’s a great group of people and always a fun time.

I’ve found MSS to be a little more focused on competition than having fun, but there are good people there too.
