      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      So - that's the ME, I think. I was talking about the ER doc. This isn't the link that I first saw it on, but: https://www.inquirer.com/news/nation-world/derek-chauvin-george-floyd-murder-trial-er-doctor-20210405.html

      Beer Virus V

      This 4th wave thing remains confusing to me. The other night, there was a segment about how the experts can't agree on whether we're in one yet. Well... then we probably aren't. The prior waves were pretty unmistakable.

      Not every black person participated either. ;)

      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      So that's the importance of being on the jury. What they heard and understood is what's important. The ER doc said that generally it can be caused by drugs, but that in his opinion in Floyd's case, it was not those things.

      Huh? Even here on INGO, people are predicting riots/mayhem if Chauvin is acquitted. Are those threats?

      Seems like the 5-circle loop that the training guy talked about was a more complicated version of the OODA loop.

      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      The ME report/death certificates are not intended for public consumption despite being public records, even in highly publicized cases. The words are used in specific ways, and can be twisted into a Rorschach test. The report you're referencing also supports the contention that if Chauvin had...

      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      Actually, having been part of that process live, I don't really see much of this that's played to the cameras. Like, almost none. In every significant criminal case, the prosecution tries to humanize the victim and make them sympathetic. (Which can be difficult.) That emotional connection is...

      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      There's an INGOer who I'm nearly certain has significant experience dealing with expert witnesses. Even in my limited interaction with that particular scenario, a pretty compelling argument about reasonable doubt starts with something like, "Now, I'm not a doctor and based on the jury...

      Trump urges boycott of these companies

      Yeah, you either forgot or didn't notice. :) ETA Thinking back, I think I even started one of the threads on the topic. :D

      When .gov told me they were bad.

      Trump urges boycott of these companies

      ... and criminalize possession of more gun accessories. That seems counter-productive.

      If this turns into a duel of experts, buy stock in plywood producers, 'cause that seems likely to lead to a defense verdict.

      Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man part II

      Yeah, I've heard that things are going faster than they thought (mostly because it seems like the defense is taking a light touch to most of the cross exam). So, I think the State may rest as soon as this coming Friday.

      I believe the training sergeant and a couple UoF experts are slated to testify either yet today or tomorrow.

      Did world war 3 just start?

      Good morning to you, too! And sincere thanks for your post. There's alot to cover in it, and I'll likely just leave it alone for awhile. I may bring up parts of it in future conversations, though, not as a "gotcha" but to explore how that perspective plays out in light of modern events...

      Did world war 3 just start?

      So I'm curious - and apologies if we've already covered it and I've forgotten - but what do you think the Annexation of Crimea was a response to? :) Totally not an aggressive question, and I apologize if it comes across that way. I view it more as a matter of Putin understanding that he could...

      Did world war 3 just start?

      I think it was mostly small arms and support equipment. I don't think it was anything big, but could be wrong. It was, however, more than Obama did. (Which, in and of itself, ain't saying much.)
