read the new thread, still waiting for the mods to shed some light on things. I personally do not want to exert any emotion in this unless it s true.

Did the judge identify or specify just who it might be , besides a jury, that could state as a fact that some given act is a violation of the law?

He did say that everything is speculation untill a determiniation is made by the "court." He did not specifically say "jury"...he said "court"...but I ...

I hope you review this and have enough intellectual integrity to see past egos and realize that my logic holds true and can be applied to many (if not all) circumstances.

I've been swamped for two days and just saw this. Your time here is going to be very short.

You arguments are erroneous, your ...

This may be incorrect information but I heard that there is NO statue of limitations on ANY crime.
If the present day DA thinks he has enough evidence he can take you to court for crimes committed decades before.

I believe that some...if not most crimes...have a statute of limitation. I will look ...

Another small twist...how does all this play into the castle doctrin. If the shooter is not formally charged and cleared. Can the BG's family come back and sue (and possibly win). I believe the castle doctrin only protects those who can not be held criminally liable. If a jury never makes that ...

Let’s assume that everything occurred as stated in the original post. And let’s assume that the DA chose not to prosecute. What happens next? I assume (and I guess this is a part of my questions) that the ...

Have you committed crime if you haven't been convicted of it? You cetainly haven't committed one in Biblical terms.

Sorry....I did not finish answering. If you have NOT been convicted...than no “crime� has occurred. That being said...that does not mean there was not a transgression of statute ...

If convicted, you have committed a crime against the standards set forth by the people of this nation or against the standards set forth by the poeple of the convicting jurisdiction ...

It is important for students to understand the defense to prosecution.

I start with using a very simple example;

If I walk up and just punch you in the nose, what is that? The class always agrees that it is an assault.

I then change it, and say, "what if FIRST, you grab my shirt, pull ...

Jim, if you shoot someone in self defense you are free to argue whatever you feel comfortable with.

But I must say that if I shoot someone in self defense, my attorneys will be arguing that I did not violate the law because my actions were fully justified under the ...

. . . The sole act of pointing a firearm at a human being is a threat of use of deadly force and is, at the very least, a violation of penal code as defined by PC 22.01 ASSAULT and a class a misdemeanor is punishable by law.

No it is not. A person can be arrested for assault and he can be ...

After some thought, I would assume the Game Warden acted that way simply because of federal regulations. I think that any other water way would fall under the state guidlines for carrying a weapon. I have not seen anything forbidding CHL holders from carrying on a waterway. Even if state or ...
