It matters in whether or not it's legal for him to carry the gun, but not in whether or not the officer had a right to shoot him. Only whether or not he's a danger to his surroundings does it matter.

I hear way too many conservative pundits smear the dead person by saying things like "Why is BLM defending him?

 

This is a result of other people judging the deceased against the police officer or arguments that the police officer acted purely out of malice towards towads him. It is a reaction.

whether or not he had a legal right to posses a firearm seems kind of irrelevant when the thing was stolen in the first place....

Firearms and criminal history alone are not exceptions to the 4th Amendment. If an officer has no cause or warrant, that officer is not allowed to compel an individual to surrender the firearm for inspection, and in some states they are being forbidden to even ask for any type of permit. The principle is complicated and full of nuance and exceptions, though. An officer is free to search a person for and to inspect weapons if patting a person down during a traffic stop based on the results of cases such as Pennsylvania v. Mimms and Terry v. Ohio, for example.

It would take somebody experienced and trained in firearm and traffic law - or literally any Justice SC or otherwise - to actually determine whether or not it actually is relevant, though. My guess is that it is if somebody felt the need to push the case hard enough and had the skill to do so.

My current avi is an apt enough rep of me.

Aw, but you'd make such an awesome Red Panda!

 

Unrelated: I can't believe access to the unified testing environment has been down for 2 days and nobody has done anything to fix it, much less anyone over hear pushing to get it fixed by infrastructure. I need something, so its getting worked on now.

 I swear, I am just about ready to buy this team a PHYSICAL WHIP and teach them how to CRACK IT!

Yeah, that's the thing. I'm not about the wish fulfillment and self flattering life. I look like neither of those. Well...obviously. But I'm not small and cuddly at all. :y

You're too good for the indulgence in attention and unsolicited praise towards your fictional character, and have no interest in using this character for fantasy scenarios you will likely never find yourself in?

 

Sounds like you have a pretty good life. Are you sure you belong here?

Man all these artists with personas and fursonas. I can't stomach the idea of making one for myself, honestly.

You should make a koopa, obviously. :v

I thought your fursona was a spaceship, though.

The spaceship was just a ship "OC" of sorts. Kind of like how SligartheTiger has a custom Lexus he draws for his characters all the time.

I've never really committed to characters I make. Sometimes end up just giving them away or selling them to people who for some reason actually WANT to pay for them. So I can't see myself really pushing a fursona that would probably be just another bargain bin personality.

Most people don't attribute a different personality to their fursona than their own, so if it's in the bargain bin... :y

I've actually toyed with the idea of creating a character that is the complete opposite to me in every single way. Could be interesting.

Didn't some right-wing, Republican, Christian group complain that in a cloud of dust that gets kicked up in Lion king, that it spells the word sex? Seems I saw this at some point. I think it may have been the American Family Association, who were also upset that in Spongebob, there are shirtless animals...

Damn liberal furry fags working for Disney, destroying the minds of children with their homo agenda!

It was supposed to be SFX, a watermark for the animation team, but people saw SEX instead.

Can someone explain why blackface is racist, derogatory, or whatever it is that offends people?

It seems like a dumb thing to get offended by.

As stupid as it is, most people find it at least slightly irritating when somebody makes money and an entire show off of insulting your race and culture, propagating an idea that you are less than what you are and generally insulting everything about you.

because the whole concept of blackface, or at least its most known form, was oftentimes based around negative black stereotypes that were held at the time and quite literally meant to be derogatory

Rabbit's Random Thoughts:

you know what would make a cool AV/ profile pic? There's this Calvin and Hobbes strip where calvin actually smokes a cigarette (one of the few time where his parents grant Calvin one of his outlandish requests.)

The panel where Calvin is actually smoking the thing would make a pretty funny AV.

 

ALSO.

And you feel so dumb for not catching on to it sooner...

I wonder what happened to me trying to speed run Mega Man Zero 3...

I was pretty serious about it for a few months and had half the game pretty nailed down. I should get back on that some day.

I've always wanted to learn how to speed run, but tbh I'm pretty bad at trying to learn it
