    thetragichippy reacted to tvc184 in Supreme Court overturns bump stock ban…   
    Not as fast but pretty darn quick but skip that as nearly meaningless. 
    You continue to ignore the questions that you don’t like however. Deflection is admitting that you have no argument.
    Should people go to jail for something that isn’t a crime?
    Should the Supreme Court base its decisions on the Constitution and the law or emotions?
    Does anyone believe there is a right to slaughter kids?
     If Congress passes a law banning bump stocks, so be it. Remember that in this decision the Supreme Court didn’t overturn machine gun laws, they only correctly and unemotionally ruled that a bump stock doesn’t fit the definition as provided by Congress.
     It comes down to the fact that the Congress didn’t pass a law that covered bump stocks. I understand that you are displeased.
    You could have reduced your statements to, “I don’t like that law”. So much more simple.

    There are a lot of things we don't need.....We don't need to drink and drive.....I have not heard any group that is pro gun restriction want breathalyzers on all vehicles.... That would save about 11,000 lives a year. 1/3 of all accidents are alcohol related.....
     
    Are we all guilty of the deaths that involve alcohol? 
    and lastly, you say you own a weapon (an AR) that the left wants to ban because it fires too fast, yet your against an attachment that makes a gun shoot faster....... who gets to decide the maximum speed? 
    If we just got tough on crime I believe things would work out just fine......

    Remember:  1)  Jack Smith's appointment is an ILLEGAL appointment.

    Be careful posting about crime in Beaumont. The Beaumont Social Media Police, @BMTSoulja1 will be after you.
    He will follow up with stories about Sour Lake and Fannett. Places you have resided in. So, watch your step.

    Can't recall seeing anyone claim they don't care about minimum wage workers, that discussion comes up when some want to increase the minimum wage to $15 / hr so someone could possibly support a family.  That has proved to be a business / job killer, the minimum wage was never intended to support a family, it was for kids, students and part time employees.
    Hippy is correct, this economy hurts the folks making lower salaries that have 3 kids at home and their grocery bill has skyrocketed, not to mention trying to buy a home.

    Goes down in flames? Considering it was a runoff election already that was feverishly close 'til the end with only a difference of 366 votes out of 25,260, I don't know if that is a fair description.

    Maybe I am missing it but…..
    There is no debate that the policy is purely based on race or ethnicity.
    However….
     If the non- minority (White) financial institutions charging fees and making probably millions of dollars collectively but the minority owned institutions are not, are the minority owned businesses being deprived (screwed) of an easy profit??
    So while the minority (and White) customers might be saving $2-$3 a transaction at minority owned institutions, those minority owned businesses are losing possibly large amounts of money.
    Are am I missing something?

    Even if he is convicted of every count, he won't go to jail (imagine if they do try to put him in jail with the no bail program they have in place even letting violent offenders go) - and he is 100% on the ballot. He will appeal and this will be last trial before election.

    Welp - today Cohen admitted to stealing from the Trump organization over 60K.....
    So....to me......the State focused on how Trump is a micromanager and would not "NOT KNOW" where his money was going and the one that can prove that is Cohen......only problem is Cohen proves Trump did not know where every his money was going, unless you believe he knew Cohen was stealing from him on all those checks he signed......
    If that does not scream reasonable doubt, I would not know what would......

    I have sat in the jury room on three trials.
    The rationale that juries can come up with after listening to testimony from the witness stand, is at times amazing.
    I don’t care how good of a case I could make in defense and how much the evidence was on my side, I would never want my fate in front of a jury.

    The law on self defense in Texas says that the use of deadly force is justified if the person using the force reasonably believes that it is the force is necessary.
    Of course a jury will look at it and determine if the person had a “reasonable” fear. In my opinion, by law it is to be viewed from the perspective of the person using the force at that moment. That is why it says that “he” reasonably believes. Then under Texas law, a person isn’t required to prove self defense. The state is required to prove that it wasn’t and beyond a reasonable doubt.
    So there was no reasonable doubt of fear when your car is surrounded by a mob and a guy is walking toward you with an AK47?

    I think that his comments is what he was convicted on. Had they not had that, he probably wouldn’t have been convicted.
     That is one reason that I do not talk about what I would do. If you make an off the cuff comment like, “If that happened to me, they wouldn’t need an ambulance, they would need a hearse”…. then later you are in a maybe different situation but resort to deadly force, don’t be so sure they someone won’t find that comment and use it against you. “He has obviously been waiting for the opportunity to kill someone” or worse…. the opportunity to kill one of those people. (whoever “those” may be)

    His only issue is he is 73
