    U.S. District Judge Charles Simpson's ruling declared that the actions of Taylor's boyfriend, who fired a shot at police the night of the raid, were the legal cause of her death, not a bad warrant.

    Wonder why he opened fire? Couldn't have been because of the no-knock no-announce plainclothes raid that was entirely indistinguishable from a home invasion, could it?

        legality for the poor in the us requires mindreading.

        Is a coin toss, and the state always picks heads.

        Maybe someone else remembers, but I swear there was a case of a known Black Panther in the 60s/70s who shot and wounded a cop that was illegally arresting and brutalized his comrade, and the court ruled the shooting of the pig justified because there was no cause for arrest and the cop was plain-clothed I think. I can't imagine that ever happening today.

    The NRA and all the gun owners are surely going to rush to their defense and uphold the right to defend yourself from breakins. Just like they did with Philando Castile.

    I think it's wrong to libel the victim of attempted homicide while participating in a criminal conspiracy to cover up the murder their partner, but I guess that's why I'm not a US federal judge.

    Fucking death to Amerikkka. This is so fucking stupid. So it's ok for pigs to forge a warrant for the wrong home, which I guess isn't trespassing, nor breaking and entering, nor just flat out fucking illegal. But it's somehow bad for someone to fire a gun at the pigs who are LITERALLY breaking and entering into their home. Got it.

      To be clear, since they didn't announce themselves, this effectively means it's illegal to shoot at a home invader breaking the door of your home down ever until you confirm that they are not a police officer.

      But really it just means

        I wonder how many seconds you'd need to wait for a reply before sending rounds downrange?
