Godholio posted:If they beat a murder charge you don't get to just change it to manslaughter and try again. There are ways that the jury could convict on manslaughter instead of murder, but I don't know how the laws are written in TX so that might not be an option there. This is pretty normal everywhere and why you try to prosecute a charge of manslaugher over murder if you aren't sure.

BigDave posted:Firearm Owners of America Something like the UK model would work, though it'd have to not be police based. The basic idea is "Do you need it?" (you get it, this is a rifle rarely, mostly a shotgun or a pistol if you're in the middle of nowhere), "Do you want it?" (don't ask for a goddamn machine gun, in this case, it's pretty much fine if you want a rifle, depending). Pistols are a no, shotguns are a yes, and if you've got one of those, just be careful because if you gently caress up we'll be annoyed. I'm not 100% happy with it though as I've always wanted to go rifle / target shooting and I can't. My parents used to back in the day. It used to be a working class sport.

The next step of the chaos is when all this dancing around Europe trying to get a new deal on the Brexit falls apart.. tomorrow or later this week. 50/50 The opposition calls for a no confidence vote in the government. Which they'd win given the chance.
