Shooting at the parade
Friendly mod reminder, this thread is about yesterday's shooting. Not about gun control, gun laws, politics, or anything of that nature. If you need everyone to know what's wrong in this world and how you'd fix it, grab your megaphone and soapbox and take it to DC, thanks. Last edited by DaFace; 02-16-2024 at 02:59 PM.. |

Did he have to clean up the brains like Vincent in Pulp Fiction?
What about Alex Baldwin? |

She's tuff on crime. But not really at all. |

Looks like type to pursue offenses. Not criminal ones, just stuff that gets her offended like assuming her/their gender.

Sounds like the dude was waving the gun around. And they had already told him to point it at the floor. If that isn't negligent homicide, I don't know what is.

The 2 times I was on a jury, during jury selection, they never said anything about the case during their questioning of potential jurors.

In the three times I've been through the selection process, they didn't specifically say who the defendant was, but they would say things like, "Do you think that a person who is blackout drunk is capable of making a conscious decision?" so you knew the gist of what the case was going to come down to.

I wish I had the deck they gave us in the jury room to reference for this. There was all sorts of flow charty stuff in there that was fascinating (in an academic way like this) to think through. |

Here, they absolutely start with figuring out if you know any of the people involved. If you partied with the wrong crowd growing up, there's a 50% chance you're getting the exit with a "Ya, I grew up with him, his brother has always been a thief but I will give him a fair shake on this if chosen". Nope, excused with the quickness every time. If that doesn't work, the current PA and my family have ties so the defense will throw up a hell no from that side as well. I assume the above sounds crazy to someone in a metro area where no one knows anyone the majority of the time. |

I am a huge Law & Order fan so I know how complicated these issues can get. Drinking is very dangerous and I wish it was taken more seriously because one bad mistake when you are blackout drunk can ruin or at least seriously damage your life. You may not even remember wtf you did. Anyway back on topic hindsight is 20/20 but some of these defense lawyers make it very hard for judges and prosecutors to lock some of these guys up. It's not as black and white as it seems. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 03-28-2024 at 02:30 PM.. |

The incompetence of our elected officials on full display. 2 of the 3 shooters will stand trial. The 16 year old will not be charged as an adult:
https://www.kcur.org/news/2024-06-13...home-detention "The 16-year-old, known only as “A.M.” in court documents, claims self defense in the shootings that killed one woman and injured 24 other people. A Jackson County Family Court judge ruled that he will not be tried as an adult." |
