I expect that she will be convicted of shooting Daunte Wright with the wrong hand, and that her best possible outcome from the trial will be a shorter sentence.
I do have a couple of questions I would like answers for: first of all, what path did the bullet take after exiting Wright's chest? There were two people to his right.
According to medical examiner's testimony, I see that the bullet was recovered from his body, so there shouldn't be an exit wound.
The prosecution in the Rittenhouse trial were impugning him for using full metal jacket bullets. The bullet that killed Wright was a 9 mm hollow point that flattened and then ripped through his heart, and no doubt liberals will manage to complain about that too.
Secondly, is using a Taser a good idea when other officers have hands on or near your intended target?
Thirdly, was her trigger pull intentional or unintentional?
A boomer apologizes, albeit without much clarity.
"It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs," Jesus said; Matthew 15:26.
I recently understood that I am spending my life in rebuilding spiritual and practical foundations that had been foolishly undermined by previous generations.
Several months ago I was reading a nonfiction book by Christian author Paul Tournier, and made it about three-quarters of the way through before being drawn away to other things.
When I picked it up this last week and finished reading it, I found references to about a dozen Bible passages that had come up in my daily Bible readings in the interim, mostly obscure Old Testament personages with a variety of afflictions; Tournier was a Swiss doctor famous for connecting his Christianity with his medical practice.
I also read a Christian fiction book this last week: Deadline, by Randy Alcorn. One day, what I read in the book mirrored my morning Bible reading on that same day.
"A work of creation was three-fold, an earthly trinity to match the heavenly; the Creative Idea, timeless and passionate, which is the image of the Father; the Creative Energy, begotten of the idea and working in time, which is the image of the Word; the Creative Power, the meaning of the work and its response in the individual soul, which is the image of the indwelling Spirit."
-- P. D. James, summarizing Dorothy L. Sayers' description
