Oh, he got cut off.
In that case shooting up some cars and ramming another seems pretty ok. I mean, what else are you going to do?
Such a perfect example of a responsible gun owner.
Hey! Guns don't kill people! Judges kill... Cars?
Futures.
Oh fuck! That took me a moment! Oh damn! OH DAMN! That a hard fucking truth!!!!
Ig someone should have shot him by their logic.
Driving in the states must be nerve wracking knowing there's a good chance any given car on the road is armed.
And that there are no proper driving lessons or exams like in some European countries.
some European countries.
Wait wait wait. Are you saying that some, as in more than one, Euro county doesn't have a licensing exam? Iirc, Texas is the only state without one over here and they're notably worse drivers than everyone else I encounter.
Not sure about that, specifically. I do know that some countries (e.g., The Netherlands) have way stricter exams than for instance Hungary.
Wait what? Texas definitely has both a written exam and a driving test. Is it more extensive in other states or something?
Eta: Texas doesn't require you to take a driver's ed course if you're over 18 years old, but you still have to pass both the written exam and driving test. Maybe that's what you were remembering?
unless something has changed, there's an initial licensing exam in Texas.
The sad truth of it is, because of the way our, that is to say America's, cities and infrastructure are all laid out, it's almost impossible to live in this country without a car. Consequently, they'll give a driver's license to damn near anybody who can operate the pedals, regardless of the State. Passing the eye exam is usually more important than the driving or written ones.
Yeah, I got cut off in my F150 once last week, and afterwards I was consumed by an overwhelming feeling of indifference, after which I drove the rest of the way home.
Just legal gun owner things.
Lovell told police there were two handguns in his vehicle, but he said “he did not know why he would have shot his gun and could not recall any part of the shooting incident,” according to the affidavit.
That's some use of legal language. "I don't recall murdering those women. I know they ended up dead, but I don't know how. What would I have to gain?"
This fuck presided over cases that affected peoples' lives. Sigh…
I mean... what the fuck
"The judge had a habit of masturbating with a penis pump under his robe during trials."
"Investigators later collected carpet samples, Thompson's robes and the chair from behind the bench, and found semen, according to court records."
Huh, so he's a pervert too.
Different dude, same state.
I read that last line as “found semen on court records” …..
Well someone probably did
Brian Lovell, an associate district judge
...jury and executioner too, apparently.
How do I hide these images?
They are getting very obnoxious.
Republican?
Oklahoma. You decide.
Spoiler: I don't know, but it's almost certain that he is.
Second spoiler: I lived in a state that borders Okie. They're all repubs.
Okie here, I would almost bet money this guy is a republican.
I feel so much safer knowing he might show up and protect me from a grocery store robbery.
Can i get some bike paths, i dont wanna be on the road with these people in cars anymore.
I guess the paths will now need some kind of bulletproof and carproof protection. thisiswhywecanthavenicethings.jxl
This should be a !byebyejob moment (do we have one of those in the fediverse? I guess I don't know how to link properly yet lmao)
Did he shout "I am the law!"? Because that would explain things.
Dammit Oklahoma!
Been watching Rez Dogs and my first thought was "Oklahoma? Yeah at least he wasn't fucking a fucking catfish, man."
Fucking a catfish is tame shit.
"The judge had a habit of masturbating with a penis pump under his robe during trials."
"Investigators later collected carpet samples, Thompson's robes and the chair from behind the bench, and found semen, according to court records."
Catfish is life
Man got sick of waiting for the new GTA game.
