He got 6 years for shooting a person 6 times to death in their own home… In a state with the death penalty. While having a witness that heard them ask the person to leave.
This person got given the best case scenario it sounds like, and is asking for better. If possible they should retry it as first degree murder and the death penalty, the perpetrator would likely settle for 15 years very quickly
They brought a gun to someone elses house, got in a argument pulled a gun shot them at their own house 6 times and lied in court about how it happened.
"According to testimony, Ward went to Lee’s home, where a verbal altercation occurred. The victim, Paris Lee, asked Ward to leave. During the confrontation, Ward claimed that Lee pointed a gun at him while they were at the top of a staircase, causing him to fall backward. He told police that he then drew his own weapon and fired upward from the bottom of the stairs, striking Lee.
However, physical evidence and expert testimony from Medical Examiner Dr. D. Van Pelt contradicted Ward’s version of events. Lee was shot six times, and the trajectories of the gunshot wounds did not align with the defendant’s statement. Additionally, Ward had no visible injuries, undermining his claim of self-defense.
The prosecution presented a key witness, Tarik Hunter, Lee’s best friend, who testified about a phone call with Lee during the incident. Hunter told the jury he could hear Ward yelling in the background and that Lee repeatedly asked him to leave."
Person brought a gun outside of their property. Premeditated murder. Done. I’ve owned guns for 19 years. If I bring a gun off my property it was premeditated. If I shoot someone it was intentional.
Whether or not I was passionate about pulling the trigger or not, it was thought about ahead of time and deliberate.
Anyone who has shot guns should know it isn’t a hiccup to pull out a gun, ensure it is cocked, safety off, aim and hit a target… Let alone 6 times. This person deliberately and intentionally used a deadly weapon to assault someone.
The number of Christian sects in the U.S. isn’t 1, isn’t 5, isn’t 10, isn’t 20. It’s more than 200. It’s very clear that Christians don’t and have never agreed with each other so it is absolutely rediculous for any Christian to think “what we believe” means all Christians. Hell there are so many people that call themselves non-denominational simply because they don’t want to claim parts of the Bible hated by others.
If we tally it up according to Christians all Christians will go to hell, which they made up.
Wonder if he’ll be dumb enough to fight Apple as well who calls it AI, using the name Apple Intelligence since iOS 18. It got a lot more Integrated with their latest OS’s but I don’t see them throwing away the name Apple Intelligence so quickly after putting the name in over a billion devices.
This seemed to elude to the demand for leather slowing and the supply staying the same. We export way more than import. There is a PDF linked in there that shows where their information stems from. I will say I didnt read all of the PDF not sure if I got tired or bored reading it, haha. https://usleather.org/news-events/if-we-stopped-using-leather-would-fewer-cattle-be-reared
A wiser person than I, I would have tried to discuss it and convince them they couldn’t possibly be. All the while thinking I’m putting myself down and saying reasons I’m flawed and them somehow taking it as me being kind and vulnerable. Relatonshps are probably better that way. Where I take the I out of them /s
I have no way to confirm accuracy but this made me wonder how much cow hide is thrown away and not made into leather. About 15% apparently ends up not being worth the shipping and such so it ends up in landfills. Millions of cows having wasted parts, all because every American doesn’t have a proper leather kink… Sheesh
Biden put an executive order for $15/hr 3 months into office. That doesn’t do anything for us because we don’t work for the executive branch, that has to be done by congress.
So that means there were corporate Democrats in Congress that didn’t support raising minimum wage to 15 by 2025 as proposed.
So in A New Hope R2 trudges off looking for Obiwan at the beginning of the movie. They are both captured by jawas and are going to be sold for parts. Owen needs a droid that can communicate with his moisture evaporators and diagnose issues. R2 is useless in this capacity. He buys C-3PO. C-3PO tells him to buy R2. The entire series would have been over right there as R2s memory would have been wiped by anyone without a translator there. 10 minute short film about how the Almighty Empire who does no wrong thwarted a terrorist organization.
Oh and Empire Stikes Back famous hyperdrive issues are diagnosed by “plugging C3PO up to the hyperdrive” so he could download/diagnose and spit out any hardware repairs needed while performing any software changes needed himself.
Yeah he is a translator/protocol droid he isn’t the most useful in a crew who all speaks galactic basic and is running from blaster bolts. But he did everything he was supposed to do just fine. People just don’t care to see a droid plugged up to a moisture evaporator doing “nothing”
He served as a translator when Padme was a senator
People mention the ewoks
He was a diplomat for the Jedi for a bit
Believe he I infiltrated the first order as a spy or some shit as well…
But one could argue Luke would be dead if C-3PO hadn’t told him R2 had taken off and subsequently followed him.
Permanence isn’t forever. Sorry your comment had me laughing in my head about the idea of object permanence truly meaning forever and it not being relative/subjective.
Your fingers are much more dextile than the ship that landed on the moon as well, it doesn’t mean your fingers can get to the moon without other means if transportation though
If the rocket isn’t FOSH I want nothing to do with it, lol
The difference is most of them don’t believe in any of it. It’s just entertaining to them. Find ten people who say like astrology and ask them to make base a life deciding event on it all 10 of them will make the decision on factors outside of astrology.
An easy way to tell, if they ask what month you were born in, they don’t believe in astrology… As the months don’t line up with the stars.
Mercury is in retrograde, Mars and Saturn coloring apparently was not screened for… So they got flagged
I don’t think they even advertise it as free, if they are it should be illegal/made illegal as it is only with the purchase of their subscription services.
Apparently if you give someone lethal injection in the U.S. they have over a 7% chance of having complications with it.
So I guess it’s more likely probs lethal injections
Wild pandas appear to have hit a low in the 1980s and have since been able to recover some do to just that. It’s just going to take a long time. In the 80s we were down to apparently around 1100 in the wild, now there are around 1900.
So if people remember to not be dicks I assume wild pandas will be fine again someday
I doubt he talked with either
