On Saturday in Spicewood, TX, a city on Lake Travis, it was 88 degrees and partly cloudy. 0" of rain. https://weather.com/weather/monthly/l/Spicewood+TX?canonicalCityId=d5dd17a8704d5640e313dda06b4ceb3625c6e2d0c7098e85a0b75314b39f3399 Expand Ok so it wasn't the weather. They all put themselves in danger. No one put anyone else in danger. It's called personal responsibility. ***** happens and many times it's because of our own actions. If they put anyone NOT involved in the parade in danger then you have a point. Otherwise you stick with everyone's a victim mentality. On 9/9/2020 at 4:00 PM, wAcKy ZeBrA said: Thanks.

Maybe you can invoke Rule #2 on yourself and help me out since this is the only topic you're interested in today.
