Only in America!

Post by fidelcastro » Thu Jan 04, 2024 2:15 pm

Defendant attacks judge in a Las Vegas court.

Is it just me who expected the footage to be cut just before they shot him?

Perhaps they're more lenient than we think?

It's really not that rare an occurence. I mean it happens so often that wikipedia has a page dedicated just to federal judge deaths...

If they'd put him in jail instead of probation for the first few felonies, maybe he wouldn't have had that reaction to going. The truth is, there's really very little protection for judges, the accused, or convicted in this case is literally sitting at a table a few feet away from the judge. Hope she'd ok.

About to get far, far wilder this year when motor-mouth Trump stops playing about and really kicks off. :D :)

He was saying that he was expecting her to be shot but was surprised when she wasn't.

I think fidel was expressing surprise that he wasn’t shot, hence the comment regarding leniency.

Thanks for clarifying on my behalf. I didn't think it needed explaining, but I wasn't accounting for thick Rick! 🙄

You inferred he was shot, I queried that. Why does that make me thick?

I didn't infer he was shot at all. It seems most people understood the point I was making even if you didn't :roll:
