Or, anything else.

Amen. Anyone that believed they destroyed records is likely sitting on a beach in Arizona waiting for the tide to roll in.

Looks like the thread has left the rails.

Standard procedure for a Defense atty to go for mentally incompetent when he has nothing else to hang his hat on. With that much painstaking prep, he was playing with a full deck. Personally, it doesn't matter to me if he was nuttier than a fruit cake, get the same punishment as anyone else. If you can't do the time, don't do the crime. JMO

1956 Ford Crown Victoria, 312 cu in Thunderbird V8 , 4bbl carb. Wish I had it back, worth a bunch now. It would scoot. My first car.

KInda like walking thru Hell carrying a bucket of gasoline.

It could also put pressure on the DA to not bring charges in a case of this type, clearly self defense, rather that bow to political pressure, media, etc. Personally, I hope it passes.

The old Central State mental hospital years ago, was replaced in 1995 by Mid Tenn Mental hospital. When I was a Corrections Officer in the Trousdale Co. lockup from 2003 thru 2006, I've had to transport inmates there as well as Cumberland Mental health in Lebanon. Male & female. An inmate having issues would have the crisis team come in for an evaluation, if needed, then sent to one of the above institutions. Usually they could only keep them 30 days, then sent back to the jail. The County caught the brunt of the problem. I've had to talk some that were suicidal down out of their tree. One in particular had a bad day in court, came back tried to hang himself. Managed to avoid that. Build more institutions? Costs big buck, taxpayers don't want to pay for it, that simple. Not a popular thing for a politician to bring before the Legislature. This is complicated in so many ways. It's not likely to change. My.02 cts

Traffic was stopped. He'd have to wait a while to get run over. Reporters need to stick to reporting, rather than try to tell what a mentally ill man was thinking.

This is kinda like "silly season " in NASCAR. Rumors flying everywhere. Most won't hold water.

MNPD has some units with mental health professionals attached. This response was not one of them.

True, this report(s) are premature. Nothing official yet from Brady.

She was a female version.

Bad dude. Killed them & hung their hides on the wall.

The decommissioned officer fired two rounds after he was down, according to the news. That's a no no. When the threat is over, deadly force no longer applies. Sou ds like that may have been the case. I'll wait till the TBI gets it sorted out before I'll pass judgment. Of course, the blood sucking lawyers have already made an appearance on behalf of his family. The lawyer was on TV, sounded like she was making it up as she spoke. Really don't like these people. Turned it off before she shut up.

First, I believe Walther will stand behind any issues that arise. Second, strange that they went from the RSMc cut with 4 mounting posts, to a flat plate, back to the Gen 2 setup. I have the RSMc setup with the 4 posts, it locks in tight. If you want to go with the 407c sight, you have to remove the rear posts & mill down the front to fit. Why not just leave well enough alone?

I'm 78, and by the time electric becomes commonplace, I won't need one.

Didn't help much in Antioch.

Great looking company there bud. Good idea.

1" , ground white, none on the road.

Snowing hard here now, 32 deg, sticking some, not much accumulated yet.

Beef stew ready, and so am I.

I've got a big Instant Pot of beef stew on, ready for whatever comes 3 NFL games to watch tomorrow. So, I'm good to go.

The forecast changes every 15 mins. I'll wait & see what I get ( kinda like Christmas used to be ). I've got all the milk & bread sandwiches I can eat anyway. Maybe some snow cream. Been decades.

Have you ever worked in law enforcement or the justice system? This is not TV drama.
