I'm not capable of feeling anything but blind rage towards anyone who intentionally uses their vehicle to make more noise pollution but even then I'm still  about that.

JT Jag posted:Dunn parked right next to the car Jordan Davis was in. There were other spots open at the gas station. He could have parked further away, but he deliberately parked right next to them in order to engineer a confrontation because he was so angered by that "thug music." I think the relevant fact is, it took two trials and two juries to convict him. Sure the first jury agreed that he had committed attempted murder against the other people in the car; but the actual murder... they couldn't agree on that charge. It took two trials and two juries to convict him of murder.

Funny sidenote about the Secret Service thing: There's now a Clancy back in the White House who, "has the full confidence of the president and the first lady."

It took two trials and two juries to convict him of murder. To be more exact, they couldn't agree he had performed premeditated murder. They agrees he performed intentional murder, but not that it was premeditated. Given the difference in punishment between first degree and second degree murders in Florida I can see why the prosecution was aiming for First Degree, but I'm not sure I can 100% blame the jury for not being able to agree that it was first degree.

I think one thing to keep in mind about the USSS fuckups is that Obama has faced an unprecedented number of threats over the last six years. They've never had to deal with this much concentrated hate before and on this level. Not excusing them but I think it's a factor.

My favorite part was the defense attorney's theory that the teens HAD a shotgun but the police didn't look hard enough for it in the field they escaped to after the shooting. Because of well known police bias for black teens.

Apparently that guy who set fire to the FAA radar center and forced thousands of flight cancellations was trying to make some kind of political statement. Not sure even he knows what that statement was supposed to be, though, since he was hella stoned at the time.

I borrowed the slam-dunk. It's a touchdown spike, not a slam dunk.  Fried Chicken posted:In good news, Michael Dunn was just found guilty of first degree murder for the death of Jordan Davis in his retrial. I'm so happy to hear this and hope he gets life without parole. gently caress that human garbage. Pohl posted:I think the relevant fact is, it took two trials and two juries to convict him. Sure the first jury agreed that he had committed attempted murder against the other people in the car; but the actual murder... they couldn't agree on that charge. It took two trials and two juries to convict him of murder. It sounds like the first jury believed he was guilty of murder, just up in the air on it being first and they'd have hit him for second. More than likely, 1 or maybe 2 jurors didn't agree with with 1st degree charge because they weren't 100% certain it applied, which you drat well want to be for a charge that serious. I can't imagine lawyers on both sides forgot to mention "this is a first degree murder case" and I think they pretty much always mention if the death penalty is being sought (where applicable) since some people will simply refuse to convict someone and send them to die.
