The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The fatal shots were fired through the side window as Goode was passing by. NOT self defense at that point. It's roughly the equivalent of shooting a perp that is running away. It's not defense if they're fleeing. (And she arguably wasn't a "perp".)

Yes, I've known about that since it was published. Theoretically, that might work. I give it about a 30% chance of working though. Remember, Trump stopped the investigation so there is no analysis of blood splatter from inside the car. We have some photos, videos, oral testimony, etc., but the first shot could be justified. It all happened in a few seconds - heat of the moment, training, still feeling threatened. "Fucking bitch" - well she tried to run him down with a car. All you have to do is establish a reasonable doubt and he's not convicted.
