What? I thought he had a concept for a debate.

@johnwilliams6880 Jacob has a point, though. Texas has robust stand-your-ground laws. Watch the video again. The person in the robe is standing their ground, a short distance away. The other person is yelling loudly and angrily. If the person with the gun was yelling, it’s not as audible or as audible. The person who was shot begins walking toward the person with the gun. I’m not sure if the “just dropping me off from work” excuse will hold up from the person who was shot. There seems to be plenty of other places where he could have been dropped off. All I know is that we only saw part of the argument. The Ring footage might reveal more. We don’t know what criminal record the woman had (I think the shooter was a woman) or that the guy had. The woman might be the upstanding citizen here, while the guy has the criminal record. We don’t know anything about the previous confrontations, but there might be Ring video of that, too. I think I’d want to hear everything better on the video. You can’t really make out what the man is yelling and I can’t hear what the woman with the gun said at all. We do know that a judge AND the prosecutor didn’t feel the woman was a risk, and allowed her to bond out. I don’t think liberal or conservative had anything to do with it, but let us note that Texas is a conservative state. Chances are the judge is a Republican and was appointed by a Republican. Morally, I think it’s wrong to shoot someone in the course of an argument over a parking space. Legally, the woman with the gun probably has a strong defense. There is a lot we don’t know that will be investigated in full by the police. There might be a lot of evidence in her favor that causes the prosecutor to drop the case.

@baumer2504 Walking up on her. The shooter’s name is Nikki. Looks like a slender woman in the video. Both men began approaching her. I can’t tell if the woman was raising her voice, but the man was yelling and looked upset. His body language was aggressive.

Blame that liberal Governor in Texas, along with that socialist Attorney General.

The imminent threat is open to interpretation. Would your mind change if the shooter was a woman? The shooter’s name is Nikki. The truth is, there’s a lot we don’t know about the circumstances. But based on what we can see in the video, this woman’s legal justification seems stronger than that of Kyle Rittenhouse. Judging the body language and who is yelling the loudest, the woman appears calm and the burly dude with tattoos on his neck seems overly angry about being asked to move his car. If you think Rittenhouse was justified, it’s hard to see why you wouldn’t think this woman wasn’t also justified. But again, more evidence will come out from the police investigation. I think with young Mr. Rittenhouse, the jury got it right, even though there was evidence that he went out there looking for trouble and that he technically had illegal possession of his rifle. With regard to the judge and the bond, odds are the judge was appointed by a conservative governor. We’re talking about Texas. Also if the prosecutor felt strongly that the woman was a risk, he might have convinced the judge not to grant a bond. In matters of risk, judges are more likely to side with the prosecutor. The probability here is that the woman has a clean record while the shooting victim has a criminal record. Honestly, if you are an advocate for Stand Your Ground laws, it’s surprising that you’d rush to judgement against this woman.

Did the emergency happen while the pilot was making a pitcher of old fashioneds?

People survive that ride in the summertime by riding at night. 😉 Or at least riding for a few hours in the early morning. Once it gets past 100° or so, you don’t want to be on a motorcycle for any significant time.

@nickfries4317 This reminds me of the movie Unforgiven. I’m just paraphrasing here, but I think Clint Eastwood said something like, “You take a man’s parking space, you better arm yourself.”

@brycekleinschmidt438 It was the man squaring up and approaching the woman (the shooter was a woman, I think) after yelling at her and waving his arms around, that might justify the shooting. The excuse for parking in her parking spot was that they were just dropping the guy off. You don’t even need to park if you’re just dropping someone off. You don’t even need to enter the parking lot. You can just pull over to the curb and let the guy out. I think this was handled wrong by all involved. But there are too many unknowns before we can start assuming anyone is guilty of a crime.

@MattyB7 Nah. This kid can repent of this horrendous crime at any moment (maybe he already did), and he’ll go to tje ever loving arms of Jesus. Christianity doesn’t prevent these sorts of crimes. One can even argue that Christianity encourages mass murderers, because they know Christ will wash away their sins if they repent at the last moment.

Yes. They are refusing to certify their results because they believe cheating occurred elsewhere, thus depriving their own citizens of their voting rights—and potentially hurting GOP candidates just to (somehow) spite the Dems. I bet the Dems are secretly loving this. These are people almost out of ideas, so they’re using dumb ideas.

The shooter was a woman. I don’t know what was said because in the video she didn’t seem to be raising her voice. Or the guy that got shot was yelling to loud to hear her. Her body language wasn’t threatening. Another thing to note: right before she fired, BOTH guys were approaching her.

⁠⁠ @TheRealRusDaddy Nah. It’s to be avoided. Wake up before dawn and ride for three hours or so, then find shelter or shade until after dark. Riding at those temps is not just fine, even if you’ve got a neck cooler.

Uh, no. Your approach has a lot to do with it. Without a stable approach (within speed and trajectory envelope) there could be tragic consequences. Anyway, I bet the second FTC taught the new inexperienced pilot was how to do a go-around, the first thing being how to not stall the plane (as you say, speed is super important). I have no experience, but I watch a lot of Blanco Lirio videos. 😄

Yeah, this pretrial hearing stuff doesn’t always require the defendant to be present. It’s not a big deal, but it is noteworthy.

OK, Ivan.

We’ve already got plenty. I don’t think more will make a difference. What America needs is more firearm training.

Price elasticity?

@kennethrobinson5111 Have you seen the movie Unforgiven? There’s a climactic scene where Clint Eastwood’s character shoots a saloon keeper, and the sheriff says to the crowd in the bar, “You all saw that. He shot an unarmed man.” And then Clint says (I’m paraphrasing here because I don’t remember the exact dialogue), “You steal a man’s parking space, you better arm yourself.” Something like that, although I don’t think it was over a parking space in the movie.

@jimreilly6933 The shooter was a woman. Her name is Nikki. Note the spelling.

Don’t worry, the 2A supporters will soon be here to defend this woman (and please note, the shooter was a woman). They don’t care what race or gender you are because the second amendment applies to all. Right? Right?

Would it make any difference if the shooter was a woman? I think it does regarding her fear that might legally justify her defending herself.

Elon is terrible at interviews, whether he’s being interviewed or doing the interview.

@stayclean777 He’ll be standing behind the door when they hand out tickets to the anti-woke paradise cruise, just like he was when they handed out brains.

I love Tanya’s accent. It’s not that exaggerated twang, it’s perfect and natural.

@ashakabeta Not really. If she had done this before Warnock’s win in Georgia, it would have energized the Republicans. Instead she waited a few days. The Dems can keep her in the caucus by letting her keep her committee assignments and/or offering her a better assignment, just like they do with Bernie Sanders. I’m a moderate independent, ex-GOP. I vote Democrat to prevent a fascist take over. Maybe Sinema would have done this if she wasn’t constantly being attacked by members of her own party.

Was the shooter a man? “Nikki” doesn’t sound like a man’s name. I think she must have a clean record, or there would be no chance that she’d be granted bond. I’m not going to say that tattoos are a sign of criminality, but that guy was covered in tattoos, including his neck. I don’t buy that the judge is a liberal. This is Texas. When was the last time there was a Democrat governor appointing liberal judges to the bench in Texas?

I blame the liberal governor, the liberal attorney general, and the socialist controlled state legislature. Maybe W can be persuaded to run for governor again.
