  1. It's redundant to apply that definition to murder. Or maybe I should say it's circular. The murder law says it's murder if the defendant's intent was only to cause serious bodily injury, but the result of the defendant's act is that the guy died. By your logic, any time the guy dies we can infer an intent to cause serious bodily injury. I'm saying, that doesn't necessarily follow, and to define murder in such a way (defined in a way that the defendant's intent ceases to matter if the result of his behavior is that the victim dies) basically destroys the distinction between homicide and murder.
  2. Twice's argument makes sense, but we need to know more about the "act" to draw any conclusions about Anthony's intent. The law makes a distinction between regular bodily injury and serious bodily injury and the distinction could end up mattering.
  3. You haven't quite made a convincing case that it does.
  4. Yeah my question is different though. Can they prove that Anthony intended to cause a "bodily injury that creates a substantial risk of death" because it's only murder if that's the caliber of bodily injury Anthony intended to inflict. If you're saying that the victim died therefore Anthony intended to cause "serious" bodily injury that strikes me as redundant. Wouldn't any intentional assault that results in a homicide become a murder, at that point? If we know Anthony was aiming for the chest, then sure it's murder. But do we know that? What if Anthony held the hilt against his own chest and was in a "get the fuck away from me stance" not realizing how close the blade was to the victim? So many variables here which is why it's best to reserve judgment until more reliable information comes out.
  5. We coulda bought low boys
  6. This is why the sudden spike
  7. Market responding to rumor he's gonna stall the tariffs for 90 days (except for Jinaaaaa)
  8. This is why you should teach your kids never to provoke a stranger
  9. Yeah but let's be honest most of these witnesses are in that Good Ol Boys network
  10. The price of libs is going way, way down. Wall Street may hate it but lib ownership has never been more attainable for the downtrodden opioid addicts of Ohio
  11. All we know is this was a homicide, not necessarily that it was murder. Can anyone actually prove Anthony intended to create a substantial risk of death? Who could say if there's actual precedent that every stabbing comes with a substantial risk of death? What if Anthony was aiming for the victim's hand but the victim shifted his position and ended up getting stabbed somewhere Anthony didn't intend to stab him? This feels awfully similar to when people try to explain what happened in a bar fight. Someone was an aggressor, someone else declined a few chances to de-escalate, pushing comes to shoving, punches get thrown (and if we're dealing with biker gangs weapons get drawn), and eventually one person is more hurt than the other and if they're really unlucky they're paralyzed or killed. Maybe there will be surveillance video that will shed light on what really happened.
  12. Cops lie all the time. Not sure this kid will get a fair trial in Frisco. What a sad commentary on our failed country that obvious race-baiting agitprop is the only slop the majority of its citizens choose to engage with.
  13. Two things can be true at the same time: This is a tremendous loss for the family of the kid who died, so those affected are deserving of sympathy even if the kid was responsible for escalating the situation There is no need for this to be national news, so we should question the motivations of people trying to artificially inflate its significance at a time when far more impactful things are happening such as extraordinary renditions and a completely self-inflicted economic collapse
  14. To my surprise there isn't a Vivek thread. Hopefully he fades away into obscurity, but this months-old story came to my attention and I'm shocked I hadn't found it posted about here. I don't want to steal his thunder because it's really masterfully written post reminiscent the halcyon days of the old site, detailing how he fooled Vivek in the post-RNC runup to the 2024 general election. The mastermind is an Ohio-based prankster/activist/investigative journalist DJ Byrnes aka The Rooster. https://www.rooster.info/p/vivek-ramaswamy-rooster Like a blind squirrel, Vivek somehow forecast who'd become national champs.

  15. you'll wish it was as cheap as that day
  16. Coastal Bend Dairy Queens still good
  17. It very well could be. There also could have been a few unexpected flips and holds in downballot races we've never heard of, and I'd let them stay.
  18. He's saying the about 70% of the right things, but I need to see all the fucking losers purged to believe he means business. Fire every consultant who didn't meet expectations.
  19. They really think he knows how to stop divorceposting? Sorry but once you seig heil you deserve to fail
  20. We need way, way more gatekeepers in the world. That's what the last 20 years have taught me.
  21. some guy really does have over 300 confirmed kills
