As a pretend defense lowyer, has the victim ever been convicted of a crime involving a firearm?
Irrelevant since he had no firearm with him this time, unless dumb and dumber knew who he was and knew of a prior gun incident.
I brought that up a long time ago. There are people here who would hang these guys no matter what evidence you put in front them. There are people here who would exonerate them no matter what evidence you put in front of them.
That’s the problem with jury’s. That’s why Casey Anthony and OJ walked....
Well, thank you for that, LV. 60 years, just hit middle age.
Actually, my legal experience is limited to a few business law classes. Continual self improvement and all that.
My second son is currently a full blown tax and estate lawyer. Liberty University, Lynchburg. Passed both Iowa and Illinois bars, first try. He does court appointed cases, on the side.
That son actually came in handy 7 out of 8 years of the Obama administration, when Obama and the Lerner IRS challenged my tax returns. Not one red cent more paid. I am at the point of happily paying $10 to prevent paying the IRS another dollar.
Many have said I am bitter.

You forgot to ask what he had for breakfast on his birthday counselor.
we'd (us gun owners) would do ourselves a favor by being more diverse.
No we wouldn’t.
Do you think the crime statistics used to justify gun control would be improved by more diversity?
I think there's no fairer target in today's society than boomer white men. If we were known as a gender, ethnicity, race and socioeconomically diverse group, I think that makes us harder to go after.
Had 3 microwaved eggs mixed with some cheddar cheese.
We live rather modestly around here. No doors locked.
Just roll the dice.

If that were true the early efforts at gun control wouldn’t have targeted “Saturday night specials”, and the US cities with the strictest measures wouldn’t be predominantly black.
Washington DC is about half black. Chicago proper is 40%. NYC is one of the most racially diverse cities in the country. Nearly all of the people in them have effectively been disarmed, apart from criminals.

Gun control is a proxy war on middle class / middle American white folks (Badwhites), white _men_, specifically.
The Goodwhite ruling class understands that blacks are not a threat to the ruling class, whereas white folks have been known to rebel often (and often successfully) in the past. Blacks are a threat to those who live nearby who do not have the active protection of the ruling class enforcers.

AS, it's no great surprise that Colion Noir would come down on that side of it. He identifies with a black man, imagining him as himself taking a jog, and some rednecks approach him with firearms for merely "jogging while black." It's the rare black man who can see a thing like this objectively due to how they've been indoctrinated.

TRH,
I see you ignored that he's an actual attorney, and walked through the necessary elements before a crime could be proven. Do you think you could put down your roll of tinfoil and your copy of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion long enough to respond to what he actually said vs. condemning him for the color of his skin?
