  1. It is an irrelevant post-hoc rationalization. Objection sustained.
  2. This judge is such a Milwaukee-Talkie. His impulse control has left him.
  3. Combat-Inspired Cosmetic Effects on semi-automatic long rifles do not change the purpose for the form, purpose and function of the firearms. Cringe - sure. But not illegal. Gun toting, hip gangsta wannabees have flooded the market.
  4. The judge is giving the jury its instructions (elements of the law). He is fumbling around with this rather simple responsibility. Status normal, all fucked up.
  5. A-men. ___________________________ Jury instructions being given by the judge (laying out the elements of law).
  6. 7x7 football is part of the problem, imho. The SEZ looks cheap and gimmicky without fans in seats. Not good for the brand.
  7. Seriously though regarding cross-exam books, this is what I rely on for cross-examination technique - Pozner and Dodd on Cross.
  8. Let me circle back and close the loop. This concludes this today's lesson from . . . The Power of Cross-Examination or How to Create a Perry Mason Moment in the Courtroom. (available soon in finer bookstores). The question was choose A or B. Open-ended (a no-no for most cross), but he was left with choosing two bad choices for his projected persona and demeanor. Rather than choosing A or B, he instead chose to flail, which is the worst choice when trapped. The prosecutor in the Rittenhouse case needs to work on his cross-examination skills. Rittenhouse was even less prepared for cross than @Bravo and the DA could not execute.
  9. I have a suspect matching your description: Closer than Verne? Or is Verne closer to matching your description? 1 (Verne) or 2 (large man with small hands)?
  10. Our fathers and grandfathers turned Yankee Polish jokes from WWII into aggy jokes in Texas.
  11. The conversation would certainly be different. But it is an unproveable counter-factual. Any hippy on LSD would tell you the future is unknowable. Marketing fail.
  12. Bill Hicks? Truth is a defense (kidding, sort of). Actual malice (proven by clear and convincing evidence) is the Supreme Court standard. That's tough to prove. States vary. Below was not defamatory according to Chief Justice Rehnquist, if you are looking for a measuring stick on actual malice. Fallwell and Flynt (the publisher who published the parody ad) hated each other. No actual malice was found by the US Supreme Court: On another civil law tort issue, has anyone sued the City for its police department allowing these factions to engage in armed combat, complete with armed medics? Does the city have a duty to prevent armed clashes between factions?
  13. Do you have any material (economic, marketing or other) supporting that? I have no reason to doubt it at this point. I would like to know how this stat is measured - and poach their data sources. Thanks in advance.
  14. The first thing we gotta do is kill all the marketers.
  15. Fifth Circus responds: "Antifa Communism!!!!"
  16. They fail to recognize the greatness that springs from unbridled enthusiasm.
  17. Wasn't a factor at the time in Kenosha (not today either). https://www.kenosha.org/images/finance/2020Adopted.pdf https://www.kenosha.org/images/finance/2021-Proposed.pdf ______________________________________________________________________________ The police fucked up letting the shooter and his armed friend move towards the conflict (giving the shooter and his armed friend water and warning them about the dangers of advancing into the conflict). Dumb and negligent, at the least.
