You would think NPR of all news outlets would be neutral. Sadly they are as partisan as MSNBC.

Nothing is worse than Please Beg Some-more ! Remember those fund-a-thons where they were on the screen begging for money and wouldn't continue the movie until they hit a certain mark ?

I could listen to Diane Rehm when she was on but she was still clueless on anything outside of a Northeastern type experience. No idea where she was but her understanding of the South made me embarrassed for her. Nobody cares if you're a homo here. The problem was when they forced marriage on 26+ states that legislated agin it.
Oh, yeah. Free Rittenhouse.[This message has been edited by sourmash (edited 10-14-2020).]

There are only two ways that the Wisconsin State prosecutor is going to get any convictions of that kid.
1. They somehow win the courtroom lottery and get all of the video evidence suppressed.
2. Failing that, the prosecutor goes around and personally gouges out the eyes of every juror to keep them from seeing it.
There have been precious few cases in the annals of American jurisprudence where the evidence of self defense was any clearer.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 10-15-2020).]

Tell that to the St. Louis couple who brandished guns to prevent Black Lives Matter from crashing the gate at their fenced community, and were charged. None of the trespassers were.

Around here you don't have to worry about brandishing a weapon on your property if something like that happened. When you point and hold it at/on someone then there can be a problem. Not sure how a grand jury can indict that couple, though.

Solomon Wachtler, Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals from 1985 to 1992, was quoted by the New York Daily News as saying:
"District attorneys now have so much influence on grand juries that 'by and large' they could get them to 'indict a ham sandwich."
There is a world of difference between someone being indicted / charged and being convicted.
That is the way it works here in the United States.
Perhaps it's different in Canada but we have a presumption of innocence until PROVEN guilty.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 10-15-2020).]
