20+ years is a good run and understandable it's time to end

Trust the Science except when it reduces newfound government power.

Epstein is basically guilty by implication. Unfortunately nothing more is likely to happen, no future indictments or discussions on who else was involved.

A GTX970 is near bare minimum if not struggling to run VR games.

Quest 2 is standalone so no PC needed.

that thing's an eyesore

Make those businesses and sales taxes. Oh wait that drives businesses and customers away from your locality. Guess we're stuck taxing the peasants.

We didn't have the scary Omicron variant then. Omicron. Sounds way more scary than Delta.

Just looked, it's not even a different subsection but the in the very same line that the charges were dismissed on. Really hard to see that sticking with a competent attorney. It's a terribly written law.

As I understand it's the same law (different section) that Kyle was charged with and the same conditionals apply. A half decent lawyer should be able to get it dismissed relatively easily.

The keyword there is "active". KR was running to where the police were, saying he was running to the police [to turn himself in] and the mob chasing him attacked him. Within sight of the police line. They were in no danger from him and were not stopping an active shooter fleeing a scene attempting to escape justice. Look at what happened with Gaige Grosskreutz. Gaige comes running basically besides Kyle, asking him "You shot someone?" Kyle replies "I'm going to the police". So what does Gaige do next; he drops back a bit behind although still perusing Kyle and starts drawing his illegally carried pistol out of his backside holster. This all before Kyle had stumbled (after being hit twice in the back of the head) and shot at Jump Kick Man (that we now know the identity of, and apparently the prosecution knew the whole time of the trial but with held the identity), and then shot Huber after being hit with his skateboard and Huber attempting pulling the rifle away. That said however I'm not 100% against the "stopping an active shooter" and give some credence they may have believed that at the time in the heat of the moment. With benefit of hindsight and all the recorded evidence it doesn't fit but in a chaotic environment like it was some benefit of doubt is granted. However that doesn't remove Kyle's self defense right. Said before that self-defense is not zero-sum or mutually exclusive; two parties can both be acting in self defense against each other depending on circumstance.

Rural King is great for guns. RKGuns has some very competitive prices and ships to store without FFL fee. Bought a Sig AR-15 through there and was smooth as can be. Only awkward thing was being escorted to the front door then handed the box.

Yes he was reckless by only hitting the people attacking him and none of the many bystanders. 6 out of 8 shots landed and the 2 at jump kick man don't appear to have errantly hit anyone else. Truth is, the AR-15 is highly precise and easy to aim making it an excellent self defense weapon. Compared to NYPD cops with their "safer" 15lbs trigger Glocks where they tend to hit more innocent bystanders than perpetrators.

Acura needs put on trial for that crime

I want to point out that they brought up in the trial, on the record, that Kyle's tiktok account was "4doorsmorewhores"
