If this case is known to Steve, it should be easy for him to produce a news link or a criminal record link.

If there is no citation, it is just an opinion on a video game website.

Haven't found that one yet, as our online newspaper archives only go back to 1991 and this was much earlier.

Found this though.

Maybe for Platapus or any other non troll but OTH? I doubt it.

Sorry for quoting him BTW! :salute:

Shooting a robber or a shoplifter or similar can very well lead to manslaughter or similar charges being raised against the shooter.

Besides, wasn't your whole point about guns that they are really effective etc., not that they can be taken away easily and used against the owner. There are plenty more cases where a burglar found a gun and used it against the owner or someone else later.

When cops arrive at a crime scene and everyone is armed, how are they supposed to know who the bad guys are? Btw this question was asked by a US cop.

I don't believe a US cop asked that question. They have a system for telling who's who: The bad guys are always the ones with the darkest skin.

It's true, I heard it from Chris Rock.:DL

Doesn't surprise me that you would have a problem with Chris Rock. :DL

Thanks for the info.

Couldn't find anything worth a chuckle but, that is the norm for me concerning stand up "comedy".
I see the cursing continues to rise, as the talent declines.

Not really US related but Mexico is close enough and gun violence is there too.

"Nearly 23,000 people are thought to have been killed since President Calderon launched his crackdown on the cartels in December 2006."

That's a lot of victims.

I'm thinking of the night club scene when EM has a virtual joke/duel with the cabaret act and ends up throwing him inside a piano after outdoing him jokewise in front of the audience.

Wasn't that Chris Rock?
