I agree, but in IHO's mind she was an insurrectionist while Alex Pretti was just "standing there" protesting.

So confirmed... You did not do better than my "Riverside" property because you mistimed the market.

Was Alex Pretti an insurrectionist in your mind? Ashli Babbitt was also killed as an abuse of force by an officer acting in fear.

Haha.... You know this doesn't rise to the level of murder. Plus you are supporting an armed insurrectionist, which you virtue signaled about for months with J6.

Oh, I don't think so. You sold your rental property way, way too early. Am I right, or am I right?

It's almost as if National Guard deployments helped with stopping crime. Murders plummeted more than 20% in U.S. in 2025, study shows Murders plummeted more than 20% in 2025 from the year before, the single-largest one-year drop on record — and it might be the lowest murder rate in the U.S...

Don't forget, deporting illicit labor also leads to higher costs.

One of my favorite shows as a kid, along with Knight Rider and the A-Team.

Right before cutting and pasting AI slop. It doesn't matter what either of us thinks. Let's see if they get a murder conviction. If not, then I expect you to apologize.

You've freely admitted that you listened to Larry and got burned, which is why you hold such a grudge against him.

The irony is that his entire premise for buying gold was currency devaluation, which is what led to the massive surge in RE values from 2011-2021. He had the right diagnosis, but the wrong prescription.

Newport Beach has it's own culture though.

There used to be a gold thread here that Panda deleted, but on it awgee told me how much I was going to regret selling all my gold for $1,600/oz back in 2011 (which was perfect timing). I bought a house not long before that and he also told me what a fool I was for buying because prices were...

True, it is a false equivalency. Many more people have been killed by illegal aliens than by Border Patrol / ICE agents. You are focused on one man's death while ignoring dozens of other innocent people killed due to a lack of border enforcement. Laken Riley was also a nurse who was...

Believe your own eyes.

1st degree murder requires premeditation, like the Kirk shooter. 2nd degree murder would be a crime of passion, like a man finding his wife with another man. Neither of those situations applies to this shooting. The officer was reacting to the fact that Pretti was: 1) armed 2) resisting...

@ravi there are some other reasons why investing in RE makes sense: 1) Diversification. Historically, when the stock market is struggling, real estate might be doing well. And when real estate is struggling, the stock market might be doing well. The past 25 years of QE Infinity have thrown...

It can be easier to find under priced assets in certain markets making the returns in real estate much higher than the stock market.

There was no premeditation so it wasn't murder. The officer that drew his gun and fired was initially focused on the arrest of the lady who was struggling on the ground near Pretti. IMPORTANTLY, the officer had something white in his right hand, which might have been mace? Once it seems...

If you look at @Loco_local's post you can see the last sale in 1978 for $168,500 and a current list price of $1,980,000. That's about a 4.9% annual increase so prices have doubled every 15 years in Irvine.
