NOT EVERYONE NEEDS OR WANTS A RHODES SCHOLARSHIP...

(...so many local students who want to work to make a decent living take advantage of the different vocational technical training offered locally through the various private and public schools and colleges. An education, when one can get one, is always a good thing. With many crafts and skills projected to be in demand, the local workforce equipped with certification in a wide variety of fields has a leg up on someone without one. Many times they have a job waiting for them upon certification.  Here, a caravan celebrating the certification of South Texas Vocational-Technical school celebrate finishing their course work. Time to out the paper to work.)

On George Floyd murder:

Despite the Floyd family wanting escalated charges against Police officer Derek Chauvin that reflect intention, it is more disturbing to consider that the former officer may not have intended to kill, but simply didn’t care whether or not Floyd died.

Chauvin nonchalantly kept his hands in his pockets while his knee pressed the life out of Floyd. It only underscores the irrelevance of intention when committing a racist act.

You don’t have to hate people. Racism means that you likely don’t consider them to be people in the first place...

It just doesn't matter how much spin and double-talk that Imposter Twump tweets, his time in office is short. We don't expect him to do ANYTHING good ever.

We just expect him to be GONE Jan 20, 2021.

Is this a line of newer, costly cars waiting for food handouts or what else?
If they can afford to have a car payment for those cars, they need to stop
asking for freebies. A Cadillac, a Lexus, a Hummer, a BMW, Mercedes should all be disqualified from the line that should be limited for elderly people who have already paid their dues - not young one who could also go pawn all their gold jewelry to buy food. Enough is enough!

Our tone deft and out of touch elected officials would rather hire a gringo waiter than a local educated hispanic person.

Not all caravans are for begging for food or hand-outs. Some are for better jobs I hear that there's one from Dallas coming down here looking for very high paying jobs for waiters and floor sweepers and the only requirement is to be white!!!
