  1. I finally gave up my lease this year. Been on it maybe 15 years. We used to murder the dove. White wing, mourning, Eurasian, pigeons. Tailgate hunting, no effort at all. Over the past 5 years it got worse and worse. My buddy that stayed on it reported to me today "saw four, shot one." I think I've killed three dove in one shot on this lease. No one around us has been shooting either. Corn all over the ground, it just sits there. My lease is 10 minutes from town. Used to have swarms of white wings all over my backyard. Now I see only a few here and there. I wish I had an explanation. I need a new lease bad.
  2. you spent your entire social security check on that
  3. Loose well drained organic soil, dig hole, plant potato section, eye up. Loosely cover with a little dirt, leaving hole. Once potatoes start to grow, add more dirt to the hole, mound it up if you can. Water frequently once it gets hot. In Texas, you plant them around Valentines day. Harvest around the beginning of June once plants deteriorate. Yukon golds do well.
  4. if you wrote anything other than ez melt cheez then you are by the way some of the best cheese enchiladas are at Cap'n Roy's in South Padre
  5. How do you like the PMR 30? I watched some videos on it, it looks like a blast. But I'm a Ruger Mark 2 fanboi who is afraid that if I bought the PMR 30 I might like it more
  6. BREAKING: Bobcats on national TV (ESPN) at 3:30pm on September 5th vs. SMU
  7. I received this light yesterday. Really bright beam and the green laser is awesome.
  8. I prefer purple Cherokee but could not find any at the $1.50 price point I buy tomato plants at
  9. 24 celebrity in the ground for round
  10. Surly 1%er
  11. neighbor scenario is self defense, of which castle doctrine is a part that may or may not apply
  12. will trade multiple W12s for single BTACs, PM if interested
  13. That brief is a loser. Factual sufficiency is a loser. Charge error is a loser. That's not the way mistake of fact works. Her mistake(s) of fact are embodied in the defense of self defense (or defense of property). I've already explained how mistake of fact works above. Self defense law contemplates that a person may not be right about the facts, they just have to be reasonable in their belief. Example: Husband comes home from trip two days early to surprise his wife, plane is late, gets home late, he enters home, she freaks out not expecting him and she blows him away. Mistaken but reasonable belief. Good shoot. It works the same way for defense of others. Two knuckleheads are staging a fake aggravated robbery to post on Youtube. CHL holder approaches and blows robber away. Mistaken but reasonable belief. Good shoot. I hear a noise in my garage at 200am, I enter the garage and shoot a shadowy figure. It is my neighbor who just wanted to borrow a screwdriver. Mistaken but reasonable belief. Good shoot. Actually I came about 2 pounds of trigger pull from killing my neighbor once, he got so fucked up he almost got his ticket punched. I posted the story on TOS.
  14. Wrong.
  15. I ordered the https://www.olightstore.com/baldr-pro.html which should pair nicely with my P226, G22 or G30. Looks like this has great reviews on Youtube and Amazon.
  16. Posted now, will analyze later http://www.search.txcourts.gov/SearchMedia.aspx?MediaVersionID=6580e603-ffdc-49c9-8e12-d13e63e9a155&coa=coa05&DT=Brief&MediaID=d2bb9d91-650c-47eb-9cc7-6feb82667186
  17. Man. What a nut punch. I don’t know about you guys but I’m about done with this virus. It’s killed not one, not two, but three trips to NOLA (and the Chandeleurs)
  18. 19 per 50. That should include a reach around.
  19. Today was a good day
  20. Yes. There are very few affirmative defenses in Texas. Insanity, duress and mistake of law come to mind. I think judging Texas law, which in many cases mirrors that of the other 49 states, based on the facts of an amazingly extraordinary set of facts is foolhardy. That’s a loser on appeal. Mistake of fact does not negate the culpability required for the defense as required by law. The mistake of fact in this case does not negate “intentionally or knowingly cause the death of an individual” but rather it is encompassed within the law of self defense, I.e., was it a reasonable belief, not necessarily a correct one. i’m sure this is difficult for a lay person to understand. But imagine in the case of a theft. That means the actor appropriated property with the intent to permanently deprive the owner of the property. Imagine a theft by check case. You wrote a check with the assumption that your wife hadn’t spent all of your money. There was an appropriation of property but it wasn’t done with the intent to permanently deprive the owner of the property. The mistake of fact, to wit: the amount of money in the account, negates the culpability required in the theft statute. in the Guyger case her mistake of fact (sorry, wrong apartment) does not negate the culpable mental state for murder.
  21. It decides whether the state has disproved beyond a reasonable doubt that the use of force was justified.
  22. It is murder if you do it intentionally or knowingly. But it may be justified under Ch 9 of the Penal Code. Not likely but possible. Use of force, or deadly force, does not require you to be right, just reasonable.
  23. Sounds to me like all these French benefits should be taxable as income to LaPierre, et al PS I'd like to give Miss Megan some ball ammo if you know what I'm sayin
  24. Identifying a species from an egg is diificult at best. You could use a bright light to try to look thru the egg but those eggs don’t look viable.
