  1. How do you feel about people who didn't get vaccinated and then died from Covid?
  2. Intent is a defense to the prosecution if this situation were one where the guy called the cops on them and had them arrested, but you are still legally trespassing from the perspective of the homeowner, and in Texas at least, it is a defense to the prosecution for the homeowner if you are trespassing at night and they shoot you.
  3. You need to look up what constitutes notice that the entry is forbidden. A sign, a fence, the presence of crops, and purple paint all constitute notice in Texas. So if any of those are present it is trespassing.
  4. Driving up a long driveway in the middle of the night out in the sticks is most likely to be criminal trespass (at least in Texas, not sure what the laws are like there), which is where things get sort of hairy.
  5. For now you are. When Elon Musk accidentally creates Skynet who do you think are the first people it will kill off? Or maybe not, given how racist AI tends to get these days.
  6. Yeah, it's not the capable people we have to worry about creating skynet. It's the one's who think they are capable.
  7. Not that it justifies what happened in any way, but I'm curious just how rural this was, how long the driveway was, and how far they pulled up it. There are enough crazy folks out there that I'm not pulling up some random person in the sticks' driveway unless I know for sure where I am. Pulling in to turn around? Maybe, but on a county road I prefer to find a pasture with a gated entrance to pull in to turn around versus a residence. There be crazy people out there and I don't need any extra holes in my body or vehicle.
  8. Well, one of his favorite things to do was to drive unsuspecting folks in his amphibious car into the water while yelling that the brakes were out. I remember when we toured his a ranch as a kid they said he was particularly fond of doing it to newlyweds to see if the new husband would try to save his bride.
  9. Who has said what he did was right? It's been pointed out it may have been legal, and it's been said that the guy made a pretty dumb choice and found out.
  10. Disney should totally make that draft as an animated feature.
  11. I believe you may have been watching the porn parody, nttawwt.
  12. A head wound is going to be bloody no matter if it comes from a gun or whatever hitting implement that a homeowner has handy near their door. You can't tell immediately whether it is a gunshot wound or a wound from being smashed in the head with something. So in the situation where you hear gunshots and then someone comes up to your door covered in blood it is not going to immediately be clear whether they got shot or tried to shoot someone, failed, and instead got hit over the head with a bat or something.
  13. Theft is the only one on the list that needs to be occurring during the nighttime for it to be legal to use deadly force to prevent them from fleeing, especially when read in context with 2(A) where the punctuation makes it clear.
  14. What makes you so sure that you can immediately tell in that situation that the kid is the victim and not the perpetrator? Do you think it's impossible that someone could attempt an armed robbery and get whacked in the head before fleeing? Or do you just not think things through and cast judgement on others from behind the keyboard in your mother's basement?
  15. So the article conveniently leaves out the bit in Texas law where it is legal to use deadly force to protect property? I mean, regardless of whether or not you agree with the law, it is relevant.
  16. Like the shooter knows how to use a computer?
  17. Underhand would lead to less fatigue, allowing you to practice longer and more consistently, imo.
  18. There's no one guarding you, so you could get pretty good at lobbing them up underhanded in a year's time if you put the time in. But I'm too lazy to put the time in.
  19. The police usually knock before they break in and murder you.
  20. Look at the first letters of each word on the right.
  21. Looks like it will be at least 48 hours before they can try again.
  22. ESG=equatorially situated 'ginas? So Asian snatch? Or am I reading this wrong?
  23. Getting to have lots of sex for a long time while trying to get pregnant is one of those things that sounds good on the surface, but trust me the last thing you want is to deal with a woman who hasn't been able to get knocked up again for a whole year. That kind of stuff really messes with a woman's head and can make her an emotional wreck.
  24. Well, he literally cleans actual shit for a living. So it couldn't have been too bad.
