Jury acquits escort shooter

[Caliga]

You completely missed the point I was trying to make.

Then make better points.

btw I almost never carry my gun.  I pretty much only carry it to the range.

[CountDeMoney]

That's doesn't comfort me like you think it should.

That prosector must have sucked.

Granted, but I'm not sure if this isn't less about guns and more about killing sinful hookers.




I bet if the shooter was the ethnicy one and the escort was the white one, the verdict wouldn't turned out differently.

Well it is Texas.

I don't care whether it comforts you or not, but I figured I should mention it since you brought it up in that totally uncalled-for ad hom you threw at me when you replied.

So in Texas, if a contract for personal services is breached, you can ask for specific performance, or shoot them in dead in the street.  As long as it's night, I guess.

P.S.: MB's trolling is weak.

I can't wait until the Great Black President takes your toys away from you.

You need to ask for your money back first.

Never happen.

I don't think this dipshit killed her because he thought the law protected him, anymore than I think Zimmerman really thought he needed to kill Martin to protect his life. They both acted out of a sever case of the stupids, and they were both stupids with guns, so they murdered someone.

The idea of using these laws to then get away with it comes afterwards.

I'm less sure in the case of Zimmerman than you seem to be, because IIRC he wanted to be a cop, appointed himself captain of the neighborhood watch, etc. so I gotta believe he knew of the stand-your-ground law there in advance.  In KY if you apply for a CDWL they actually make you sit in front of a video and watch a tape where a state official reads all of the laws about carrying to you, make you read the laws in a booklet, and then make you pass a test on the content.  I dunno whatis required to get one in FL, but wouldn't surprise me if it's got a similar requirement.

Knowing nothing about the other guy, I have no idea if he even had a carry permit or what the Texas requirements are related to getting one.

Dude, you guys take a test?

I know, but waiting for gun-nutters to accidentally shoot themselves takes far too long.

[Caliga]

Dude, you guys take a test?

Yep.  You have to pass a written exam on the laws, and then there's a range qualification test too.

WA= none of that.
