Sturgis Motorcycle Rally: What to know about masks, attendance, rules

richiegtt comments on Aug 9, 2020:

When you see idiots speeding on motorcycles way over the speed limit with no helmets on and doing other dangerous illogical acts I do not expect these people to have the brains or ethics to care about wearing masks . On the news I heard the governor say she wants a lot of people to attend because it brings big bucks to the state .As usual money overrides common sense.

What businesses should we not buy from?

richiegtt comments on Nov 28, 2017:

I despise Apple, They dole out their stupid little improvements on their products little by little to lure buyers to buy new products ( they probably had these improvements from the beginning )but take away other capabilities at the same time .For instance to get a thinner iPad you get a lower performance battery .They take away a headphone jack so you have to buy a blue tooth headphone jack .They lie about battery life of products .Their stated battery life is when it’s brand new .After a few months it’s CRAP. Their products are over priced and never discounted .They remove some apps ( like YouTube ) from products such as older Apple TVs so you have to get a new Apple TV to get the app back There is much more to bitch about but I am allready boring you

Anyone starting to come around to my opinion about Elon Musk being a bad guy yet?

richiegtt comments on May 12, 2020:

I admire this guy .He chose to sell PayPal and use the money for what he thought would benefit everyone ,and the environment . Electric cars ,Space X,better quality batteries to store electric from solar energy etc.If money was his concern he could have kept PayPal or retired after selling it and lived very Comfortably for the rest of his life .

I'm surprised to see a source like Vox reporting on this issue honestly.

richiegtt comments on Mar 1, 2023:

It’s beyond belief that this racist wastrel refuses to take responsibility for her disastrous term as Mayor but is attributing her election loss to racism and sexism in comments to reporters, glossing over the impact of violent crime which surged in Chicago during her tenure which is the real reason for her loss . If what she stated above was true, how the hell did she think she got elected in the first place.

should Parents be punished for the misdeeds of their children.

richiegtt comments on Jul 12, 2020:

It depends due to the fact a child’s actions and character are determined by environment ( parents, friends etc) and Genetics ,inherited Characteristics and so on . I think the word responsible would be better suited than the word punished . The one factor that is most important is a child must have have good role models to emulate

richiegtt comments on Dec 5, 2017:

First off the concept of prayer is so ridiculously shallow minded and infantile . To pray for your self is also selfish when you know there are millions of people less fortunate than you in the world . To think that you are actually important enough that a God that supposedly created the known universe cares about youis the height of audacity .Also religious people do not realize they are contradicting their own beliefs when they pray because they all say god has a plan when something happens ,so what are they attempting to do actually change his plan .The whole thing is so stupid it’s pitiful.
