Reply to comment by HankyPankerson in ProTip: Return Verizon equipment at UPS, not the VZ store. by geekitude
Only reason to have Verizon equipment is for Verizon cable TV, and cable TV + monthly Cable TV box rentals is expensive compared to TV Streaming services.

No, "What has four letters, occasionally has twelve letters, always has six letters, but never has five letters?"

Churches are a big reason we are in this mess. Without context it is basically "here is a link to churches, figure it out". I figured it was Ann Lambert in disguise.

It's all neighborhood behind it, and they don't want people gaming the back routes through the hood to sheets.
I don't get the anger towards it. I mean, some will love it, some will hate it.
For me, there is a lil jump I get to take on the motorcycle right there that goes away. I also think that will change the businesses there, more to support the in and out of the gas station,
​
The only thing that would piss me off would be as a tenant, that you are bringing in a quick food place when I am selling restaurant. There are a few in that shopping center.

If Nextdoor is any indication, people think that drug deals will be happening constantly in the parking lot (so little Johnny and Susie will get hooked on reefer!) and unsavory criminals will be waiting at Sheetz to kidnap any children within a 500 foot radius and be gone on the interstate before Mama even notices that little Johnny and Susie aren't in the candy aisle anymore.
Also all the nice suburban houses will Animorph into billboards and the community center will become a giant shopping mall, thus "commercializing quiet suburbs".

I have this issue one night a week. The VCU library is crowded with undergrads in the evening, and I don’t find it to be a pleasant place to be. There are a few other VCU buildings that are open in the evenings. Panera at Willow Lawn is fair but they start vacuuming around 830pm. I’ve tried the downtown Whole Foods upstairs but got pushed out by a drunk guy playing music loudly on a speaker who wouldn’t turn it down or leave. (I said something directly to him but decided not to approach the staff about it). I didn’t know about the VMFA being open late some nights and will check that out.

That is OPs point. Churches are tax free because of supposed community benefit. OP is suggesting that if their actions matched their rhetoric they would open their doors for people in need

Actual ProTip: Buy your own equipment. You often end up paying less for routers, modems, etc. when you buy your own than just one year of rental fees from service providers. Not to mention you'll never go through the headache described above.

Reply to comment by ZephyrInfernum in What a true maverick of wit. by Steezinandcheezin
but that is not how it works in todays society. Today its the people who have taken it upon themselves to decide what free speech means. Its ok to say this, but saying that is offensive to ME. The Kathy Griffin thing a few years ago is an example of this, holding a bloody trump head was offensive to some, but others screamed "Free Speech" the government didnt decide that, the people did.
Today it's really not about the written law, its mob rule, if a group doesn't like what you say on your sign, they cancel or call it whatever the current word of the day is. The other group screams free speech.
And the Left wing has the same issues that you state about the right, the inability to see anything by their own way.
Here is an article from Texas of all places where the ACLU defends the "Fuck Trump" messaging.
https://www.newsweek.com/fuck-trump-car-sticker-breaks-law-says-republican-sheriff-713359
I understand that you all are here to ridicule the person holding the sign and that nothing i will say here changes that. The problem is that many who do the ridiculing don't like to be ridiculed themselves when the roles are reversed.
I truly believe that we have reached a point in our history where neither group will ever be able to come to any kind of compromise on anything due to how divisive things have become.

Where do our taxes go? We had the homeless covered before COVID.

That is a list of churches, not shelters. I don't see many churches opening their doors for the homeless. They do not have the capacity. Not only that, most Christians now do not care about the homeless any more than a sales tool.
​
Can you confirm any of those had their doors open last night?
​
If you have these answers, why are you not involved?

Not when I’m there. Especially the spaces closer to forest hill. The spaces close to Hathaway tend to be empty however.

It was the best and worst. Phone booth in the back for nefarious stuff. Always had coffee on. Food was like McLeans sort of.
