apart from tradition, i heard it's also to give a degree of anonymity to the judge. it's harder to get revenge on someone that's put you away if they were wearing a wig and a robes at the time so you're not 100% sure what they look like outside court

Canada's supreme Court justices wear their robes so they can stop by the mall to do Christmas shopping on the way home from work in December and not be bothered

Also there are thousands of seats in any given baseball stadium that are very very unlikely to see an errant bat or even a ball.

If you have a dumb ADD kid, maybe sit there instead.

Yeah the "possibility of being hit by bat" seats are a subset of the expensive seats.
On the other hand, who cares?

I watched this one happen. Guy juked the security guards so badly. Right fielder was doubled over laughing.
The guy did his pose-slide when he saw a real cop (off camera) step onto the field rather than take his chances getting zapped.

That's a 21? year old charging a 46 year old Nolan Ryan and getting the poo poo kicked out of him.

I remember hearing some interview where Ventura claims that his thought process went like this.
Right when he took a step towards the mound, he immediately regretted it. He realized he really didn't want to beat up a guy old enough to be his father. He also realized that after he took the first step, there was no turning back. That's why he slows down does a half-hearted torso grab instead of actually taking a swing.

No idea of whether that's true though

You may not like it, but it's important to realize that this is largely true. It's still massively hosed-up and a lot of abuse occurred without basically any oversight, but slaves were serious investments that had to be cared for in the same way a farmer might care for a tractor today while free laborers were discarded for the slightest cause.

This is actually a worry in some places. My sister lives in the middle of loving nowhere and has already lost more than one pet to either bears, foxes, wolves or hawks. They make sure their daughter has the dog with them at all times when she goes out to play so the dog can be a sacrifice in case a bear or wolf attacks and the kid can run.

They've lost at least one vehicle to deer, too.

I understand the bears/fox/wolf/hawk vs. dogs/cats, but how did a deer steal their vehicle?

I mean, I heard of folks losing a small deer in a car.

They were driving at night on a forest road at full speed, suddenly a deer in the headlights, huge bang when they hit... and then the driver stopped and went to look outside to see if the deer was still alive and stuff. No sign of the deer anywhere. So they continued and drove home.

Once they were home they found an entire deer worth of ground meat under the hood, behind the grille.
