  1. If that's what they do, I'm not supporting the suppression of true information. But our hands-off experiment has been a spectacular failure.
  2. This might be a hot take, but China might have the right idea when it comes to suppressing propaganda, demonstrably false reporting, and fringe extremism. Look at where Fox News and the AM radio radicals have taken us.
  3. Unless you were there, everything you think you know is no better than gossip. Now we have this list of 20+(?), 40+(?) supposed witnesses, a number that seems suspiciously large. There is no reason at all for this to be national news, except maybe to distract from the fact that everyone's retirement has been wiped out and the people without any money in the market will soon find that the buying power of their money is not half of what they thought it'd be. But I guess race agitation heals all wounds, including those inflicted by $80,000 Ford Fiestas.
  4. Imposing ridiculous tariffs? That's a caning.
  5. I believe that's a flagship Mayfield DQ, so the customer service is noticeably better. I sure hope they're better paid.
  6. It just meant more.
  7. I wouldn't consider a bruise or anything that heals by itself to be a serious injury. To me a serious injury is an injury that would definitely put someone in the hospital. Anything less is definitely an injury but not "serious."
  8. We talking ER trip or are we talking any kind of first aid?
  9. I remember when this happened. What has to happen in your life to run into someone who looks like this, and think to yourself, "he's got all the answers. i should trust him unconditionally."
  10. Would you rather discuss the race-baiting? The intricacies of UIL track meet etiquette? Nobody could click on this thread and expect it to be worth reading.
  11. It's redundant to apply that definition to murder. Or maybe I should say it's circular. The murder law says it's murder if the defendant's intent was only to cause serious bodily injury, but the result of the defendant's act is that the guy died. By your logic, any time the guy dies we can infer an intent to cause serious bodily injury. I'm saying, that doesn't necessarily follow, and to define murder in such a way (defined in a way that the defendant's intent ceases to matter if the result of his behavior is that the victim dies) basically destroys the distinction between homicide and murder.
  12. Twice's argument makes sense, but we need to know more about the "act" to draw any conclusions about Anthony's intent. The law makes a distinction between regular bodily injury and serious bodily injury and the distinction could end up mattering.
  13. You haven't quite made a convincing case that it does.
  14. Yeah my question is different though. Can they prove that Anthony intended to cause a "bodily injury that creates a substantial risk of death" because it's only murder if that's the caliber of bodily injury Anthony intended to inflict. If you're saying that the victim died therefore Anthony intended to cause "serious" bodily injury that strikes me as redundant. Wouldn't any intentional assault that results in a homicide become a murder, at that point? If we know Anthony was aiming for the chest, then sure it's murder. But do we know that? What if Anthony held the hilt against his own chest and was in a "get the fuck away from me stance" not realizing how close the blade was to the victim? So many variables here which is why it's best to reserve judgment until more reliable information comes out.
  15. How serious is "serious" though?
  16. We coulda bought low boys
  17. This is why the sudden spike
  18. Market responding to rumor he's gonna stall the tariffs for 90 days (except for Jinaaaaa)
  19. This is why you should teach your kids never to provoke a stranger
