@candrakane4642 Maybe. His behavior prior to taking a header into that pole however, was what you'd expect from a very drunk person. It was after the head injury that he began to behave as if there were more than just alcohol involved.

From personal experience during my drinking days, He may have had his card out to pay for something at the bar and then put it into his pocket rather than his wallet afterwards. In his state, were he to get something out of that pocket later, the card could have gotten pulled out as well without him realizing it. Back in the day, I had a bad habit of doing that with my card as well as with paper money change received after buying something with cash.

Someone might want to point out to these sheriff's that the founding fathers only intended the 2nd amendment to apply to the federal government. State governments were meant to be able to set their own gun control laws. If anything deserves to be labeled unconstitutional, it's SCOTUS abusing their power to legislate their own personal/political agendas from the bench over the years with decisions like Heller, Macdonald, and Bruen.

The states refusing to comply with the rulings of rogue SCOTUS justices legislating their own personal/political agendas from the bench are the ones truly defending the Constitution.

Hospitals have more of a steady flow of people coming and going throughout the day. Narrowing it down to one entrance at schools would risk creating a choke point for students arriving in the morning/leaving in the afternoon. Something which would make it easier for a shooter to rack up a high body count.

The founding fathers made clear during debates at the Constitutionsl Convention that the 2nd Amendment was only intended to apply to the federal government. State governments were always meant to be able to pass their own arms control laws. States refusing to comply with the rulings of rogue SCOTUS justices based on their own agendas rather than the Constitution are the ones defending the Constitution, not violating it.

I think people are being very unfair to his frat brothers. Their story makes far more sense than that of the bar. For example, originally, the bouncer's story matched that of his friends in that he was tossed out the back door. The bar later started claiming that they put him out the front. That makes no sense. They removed him for his behavior. They're not going to walk him through the other patrons if his behavior is the problem. Out the back he goes. Also, his friends claimed that none of them were allowed to leave until the tab was settled. That sounds about right. I've seen it before. They also said they weren't allowed to go out the back to meet up with him. They had to go out the front and walk around. By the time they got there, he was gone. They then claimed they called him to see where he was and he told them he was on his way back to the hotel and that he was almost there. If that's true, then there's no point in them going after him since he would be at the hotel before they could catch up to him. Nothing wrong with that. Here's the kicker. If you rotate the bar 180° with the rear exit being in the front and then overlay the path he took, it leads to the hotel and he would have almost been there by the time of the call. It is indeed possible to get that drunk. I did something similar when I was in school. I figured it out relatively quickly but I wasn't completely trashed at the time. Distance wise, the point where he tripped and hit his head would have been close to the hotel had he gone the right way. After he hit his head, his path makes no sense which isn't surprising since he also began to stop and look around confusedly often from then on. Edit: The bar employees are the ones changing their story and it's in their best interest to pawn it off on his friends. They overserved him, tossed him out by himself and then kept anyone from getting to him before he wandered off to his doom. They are very liable and they know it. Until what really happened becomes more clear, dumping on his buddies is simply not fair.

@JohnDoe-yx9nh It might interest you to know that the founding fathers only intended for the 2nd Amendment to apply to the federal government. State governments were always meant to be able to pass their own arms control laws. It wasn't until quite a bit later that rogue SCOTUS justices made rulings that replaced the original intent of the founding fathers with their own personal/political agendas. The states refusing to comply with such unconstitutional SCOTUS decisions like Heller, Macdonald, Bruen, etc. are the ones truly defending the Constitution, not violating it.

@jojodiver8706 That has nothing to do with the 2nd Amendment. The founding fathers made it clear during the Constitutional Convention that the 2nd Amendment was only intended to apply to the federal government. States were always meant to be able to pass their own arms control laws as they saw fit. Therefor, a state passing such laws is not superceding a federal law. It's following it. The rogue SCOTUS justices responsible for rulings like Heller, Macdonald, Bruen, etc. are the ones undermining the Constitution. The states refusing to comply with those unconstitutional rulings are the true defenders of the Constitution.
