| Topic | Amber Guyger trial live (police shooting of man in his own home) |
| brandunh11 09/23/19 6:27:34 PM #27 | First day wasnt too eventful outside of the defense trying to get a mistrial early on. Only three witnesses were called, including Amber Guygers former partner who she had a sexual relationship with. Also since it keeps coming up, Botham Jeans front door was fully closed but unlocked because he had recently got back from running an errand. Its speculated that he rushed in (maybe holding something) and forgot to go back and lock his door. He was on the couch eating ice cream when Amber barged in. --- |

| brandunh11 09/23/19 1:27:10 PM #24 | So far most of the discussion has been around what pieces of evidence should be allowed into court. Her defense tried to declare a mistrial due to some info leaking but the judge shot it down. Its supposed to start back up in about 5 min. --- |

| brandunh11 09/23/19 10:55:22 AM #12 | metallica846 posted... I'm from Dallas and this shit pissed me off so much. I'm hazy on the details, but I remember that she may have been drunk or something? Im also from Dallas and have lived here my whole life. So I have more interest in this case than usual. Im not sure what the proper punishment is, and Im unsure if murder is the correct charge. Definitely manslaughter though and she should be punished to the full extent. --- |

| brandunh11 09/23/19 10:44:32 AM #1 | https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/Amber-Guyger-Murder-Trial-Live-Blog-Day-1-561067481.html This is a link to live coverage of the Amber Guyger trial. In case youre unfamiliar or forgot, this is the case in which the police officer (Amber Guyger) mistakenly went into Botham Jeans apartment, believing it to be her own. Once she realized someone was in the apartment, she shot him in self defense. Botham Jean was not a criminal under investigation and was simply in his apartment. In fact he was a literal choir boy who sang in the choir at his church and worked as an accountant for PWC, one of the big 4 accounting firms. The shooting was the night of September 6th, 2018. Trial started at 9am central time. --- |

| brandunh11 09/18/19 1:19:50 PM #30 | I once had a case where it was basically a domestic violence dispute. During the jury deliberation, someone who worked for the court brought in the police report from the incident. Literally everyone ignored it and kept deliberating like it didnt exist except me. I was shocked. Like really? Nobody else even wants to read this critical piece of evidence? i reeeeeeally hope I never have to rely on 12 randoms to determine my innocence. --- |

Not to mention he misrepresented what actually happened. Dude only had the gun because he thought there were burglars in/around his home. As soon as he realized it was the police, he let them know he had a weapon and then followed all their orders (dropped the gun and allowed himself to be handcuffed). --- |

One day youre taking care of your step kids as if theyre your own. The next youre divorced and no longer taking care of them emotionally or financially.

| Topic | 14-year-old killed during burglary attempt, his friends charged with his murder |
| brandunh11 08/15/19 12:25:18 PM #34 | I generally dont have an issue with felony murder laws. I think the original purpose was to hold everyone accountable for crimes committed in groups, even if only one person pulled the trigger so to speak. This prevents criminals from pointing the finger at each other and saying I didnt kill anyone!...which may technically be true but their involvement in the orchestration of the original crime ultimately lead to the killing. Without felony murder laws, many murder convictions might not happen because determining exactly who pulled the trigger can be difficult or even impossible if none of the people there (the criminals) are willing to testify against their buddy. With felony murder laws, the justice system holds them all accountable. That said, Im not 100% sure this is the best application of the laws but at the moment Im not fully against it. --- |
| Topic | It's been 4 years since my ankle was destroyed |
| brandunh11 08/15/19 10:43:54 AM #4 | Damn man. I snapped 3 tendons in my ankle back in 2012 while playing basketball . Had to have surgery and go through physical therapy. I was back to physical activity about 8 months later. To this day though, the ankle has never felt the same and wont fully stretch/bend. I still run on it and everything but it has a lower tolerance for standing still than my good ankle. I tried roller skating back in 2016 (on a date) and my ankle was just not having it. --- |

At least my mom apologized for that one when I was a teenager and bought me Pokmon Platinum. I remember my mom almost banning Pokemon when she found out it was short for Pocket Monsters. No idea why that bothered her so much. --- |

| brandunh11 08/09/19 12:59:32 PM #20 | Can never close your bedroom door Couldnt play video games or watch tv from Monday through Thursday. This rule was eventually relaxed around 6th grade. Couldnt have more than one box of cereal open at one time. So if someone else opened the Cheerios, I couldnt go and open the Fruity Pebbles until the Cheerios were all gone. My mom also had this really weird rule about going outside. You can only go outside once. If you come back in, you have to stay in because I dont want people going in and out of the house. Like, if I walk back in shed be like why do you keep going in and out of the house!? And Im thinking holy shit I forgot something. It was stupid --- |

Also don't run around the bases too fast because that's apparently also disrespectful. Oh and no show of emotion like excitement at a good play or anything because that's also disrespectful. The fact that menial shit like this causes hurt feelings makes them look like pansies. If a pitcher ever intentionally pegged me, I'm whooping his ass. It may not be in the moment, but an ass whooping is coming. --- |

It blows my mind when I run across adults who genuinely don't know what a percentage is or how to find a certain percentage of a certain number or even what the answer means. Also please focus on the WHY when solving problems. It goes a lot further with helping kids understand the material. --- |

I have a hard time believing either question is illegal. Car-less people arent a protected class. Ill gladly change my mind if anyone can show proof that asking it the way tc did is illegal. Its discriminatory, but the entire purpose of the interview process is to be discriminatory. --- |
