Well, looks like the court tossed one out

[Guest MikeSC]

A NY appellate court has basically banned the death penalty in NY, saying that the instructions given to juries might cause them to pass a death sentence unfairly.

 

You know, at a certain point, courts have to realize that their place is not to pass new laws.

Overreacting a bit, aren't we? I agree that the instructions are unfair as stated. They'll fix this in a few days, I'm sure.

So, overturning a law = passing a law

 

Interesting.. hhhmmm.. yeah..

[Guest Anglesault]

I'd like to say I'm shocked and all that, but you know, I'm not.

 

By the way, reading Rob's sig, did anyone think there was a human being on earth that was attracted to Chelsea Clinton?

Overturning laws on grounds of unconstitutionality is pretty much their job, no?

 

If it was the gay marriage thing I'd agree with you (though I'm personally pro- gay marriage.) That's passing a law with no vote.

That's why when anyone breaks into your house, or tries to rob you, you kill them...

And if you kill them outside, drag them inside.

 

Thank the nice police man who told my high school class that useful bit of info. You know, before High School went PC and straight to hell.

Did the po-pos also mention to plant some crack rock on them?...

I got the "drag him inside" speech as well.

[Guest BDC]

Could you care to explain the "drag them outside" part? I've always heard you shoot him in your own house so it's obvious that he was a threat to you and in your house.

If you shoot them in your yard, drag them in your house and claim you shot them there.

 

Oh, and from G. Gordon Liddy --- If You're Not Sure They're Dead, Shoot 'Em Again and Make Sure They Are.

[Guest BDC]

Sorry, mis-read that. I'd shoot him a few times and just say he didn't drop after the first shot.

BDC: If ya kill 'em, kill 'em dead.

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

The dragging them inside thing is just to make you look better. If you shot him in your yard or even if he ran outside before dying it's a little more questionable then "he was in my house so I shot him".

[kkktookmybabyaway 0]

Fuck that. If he's on your property, fire away...

Have you heard that Dave Chappelle routine?!
