I didn't say you said no culpability, you simply said there were no convictions in Brandon lee's case and there probably won't be in this one either. If that's true, there is no culpability in the eyes of the courts. I look at it much simpler, you picked up a gun, pointed it at someone, pulled the trigger and killed someone. Maybe there are others you were depending on to make sure the gun was safe, but it falls on you also. I'm not arguing with you and I understand you are laying out "what ifs" from the legal standpoint.

[Hidden Content] From the article: The White House is halting the permitting process for several proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal projects over their potential impacts on climate change, an unprecedented move environmentalists have demanded in recent months. 🤦‍♂️

There were no convictions in Brandon Lee's case, right? That's what you said. Somehow a bunch of "professionals" allowed someone to be killed by a weapon that should have been safe. Same thing will happened with this case. More than likely no one will be held responsible here either...no culpability. 2+2 does equal 4.

Well, I guess anytime someone gets killed in a Hollywood firearm accident, there should be no culpability because there are no expectations for personal responsibility from anyone involved. Sounds good.

Myself, I don't think it's a silly argument at all to expect someone to be personally responsible for a firearm you are handling, even if you're a Hollywood elite. I'm sure Halyna Hutchins's family would agree. You shouldn't get to apply different rules for a crime and have no personal responsibility when you kill someone simply based on you being an actor with incompetent firearm knowledge. But, I'm sure when it's all settled, reasonable expectations won't be applied here.

But what are your thoughts on this, I understand it's a news article, but if true, the FBI seemed to be specifically looking to verify that the weapon couldn't be fired without pulling the trigger. What would cause them to do this besides preparing to dispute claims made by Baldwin.

Apparently the FBI didn't think his explanation made him look that good. [Hidden Content] From the article: For months, actor Alec Baldwin has said that he did not pull the trigger of a gun that fatally shot a crew member while they were filming in New Mexico. But new forensic evidence may tell a different story. The FBI recently finished and sent a report to the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office, which is handling the investigation. Officials found that the weapon, meant to be a prop, could not be fired without pulling the trigger.

If only they could figure out how to keep them from catching on fire and killing folks. Not to worry, EVs are giving folks in the Congo plenty of steady slave labor.

[Hidden Content] From the article: Electric bicycles caused a record number of fires, injuries and deaths in New York City last year as Democrats continued to push for greater adoption of the device as a solution to global warming. Overall, e-bikes sparked 267 fires which caused 18 deaths and 150 injuries in the city, according to New York Fire Department (FDNY) data shared with Fox News Digital. The figures represent the highest levels of each statistic, with e-bike related deaths increasing 200%, fires increasing 21% and injuries increasing 2% in the city year over year.

Agree, as soon as the democrats figure out they need to pick a smooth talking shyster like a young bill clinton, the squishy moderates and fickle independent voters will be theirs, they won't even have to cheat.

[Hidden Content] Nothing to see here, folks...move along. From the article: The University of Pennsylvania, home of President Biden's think tank, recently tripled its donations originating from China, records reviewed by Fox News Digital show. The Washington, D.C., office of Biden's think tank, the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement, previously found itself under a microscope after confidential documents were found at the center. The discovery led to questions regarding Chinese donations to the University of Pennsylvania, which harbors the think tank. New records obtained by Americans for Public Trust (APT) and provided to Fox News Digital show that the University of Pennsylvania recently saw its donations from China exponentially swell from its previous reporting period, and some of the money has come from individuals and institutions with ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

[Hidden Content] Remember we were told to "follow the science", smh. What's sad is lots of folks would still line up to take instructions from crooks and fools like him. From the article: Dr. Anthony Fauci, the public face of the U.S. coronavirus pandemic response, told lawmakers this week that the social distancing recommendations forced on Americans "sort of just appeared" and were likely not based on scientific data.

[Hidden Content] From the article: Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott tore into Democratic city and state leaders struggling to accommodate migrants from the southern border, calling out the hypocrisy of sanctuary cities. "Something has been revealed during this entire episode, and that is the very real hostility that Democrats have against illegal immigrants," Abbott told "America's Newsroom" Thursday. "They profess to be sanctuary cities and sanctuary states. They want to welcome them in until they actually do come in. And then when they come in, they say, no, no, no, no, no, we don't want them here, we want to send them back to Texas. They're for illegal immigration as long as it's Texas and the border states that have to deal with that illegal immigration."

Not if the race-hustler $harpton has anything to say about it, he’s now defending folks that are actually racists. [Hidden Content]

This will be shutdown post 2024 just like it was post 2016. All that is required is a strong leader that doesn’t wear diapers.

[Hidden Content] 🤦‍♂️ Right out of the lefty handbook...create an absolute mess, blame someone else for it and count on ignorant constituents to believe it.

Georgia has very complicated voter ciphering algorithms that the honest voter can't begin to comprehend.

#1 in degenerate frequent flyer miles.

It’s a shame that democrats can’t simply run against someone based on their pathetic policies.

[Hidden Content] lol

Champion of the democrat party! Pathetic

But we haven’t done that in quite a while, and the democrats despise the Constitution and have no desire to be guided by it. I’m not disagreeing with a thing you are saying, I’m simply stating the sad situation unfolding before us, with a good chunk of the folks unconcerned.

Agree, but we haven’t held to the Constitution for a while now. What will happen is the democrats will continue to play dirty tricks like this with increasing success in liberal states and Republicans will proclaim this to be unconstitutional (which it is) all while losing elections by dirty tricks (just like the last one).
