Wait. So killing in self defense is cool, but brandishing a gun or firing a warning shot in self defense isn't? Are you serious? And do you seriously think that's what he though? Whoops can't brandish or fire a warning shot, better kill him


Are we really gonna resurrect this shite show? Seriously?

When your life is actually in danger. Not when you "feel" it is.


I mean really just think about that. If you could kill anyone whenever you "feel" threatened.

It doesn't matter why. And it doesn't matter if my life is actually threatened. All that matters is how I say I feel?


I wanna know how anyone ever gets convicted of murder in Florida. Killed my wife? She slapped me. I felt threatened.

So is ATVS. My first introduction to the site was a few years ago when a long missive one of the mods posted about why A&M belonged in the SEC and how texas was fricking up got linked to me. Soon as I read that, I knew that there were SEC folks who "got it," when it came to why TAMU needed to make the switch. They do a great job.


We have 1 or 2 guys that would fit right in at TR, but most of us are reasonable. Cuppycup and Freek are building a nice little rivalry.

Meh, white athletes, Hispanics, and Samoans get offered the free food/dorms, too.


True. But a very large percentage of the athletes are black, especially in the South.

It's a shitty situation because of the lack of paying athletes, though.


Yep. No matter the race, it's wrong imo to use those athletes and not give them a fair cut when profit is made off of their name and labor.

Oh yeah, not denying that, just saying I view it as more of an unfair situation than anything. "Slavery," is a little over the top for an analogy, IMO, although there are a few parallels.

Good to know! I'll let 'em know I'm coming.

Hopefully I'll run into a few of their crew if they make the trip to C-Stat next season. Gonna move heaven and earth to be in Kyle Field this Thanksgiving.

Agreed. It could've simply been a vey unfortunate situation that escalated out of control due to mutual misunderstandings/misconceptions.


It was a horrible situation that didn't need too happen. I've actually been in a similar situation, when I was a teenager. Difference is, I didn't escalate it. I kept my cool, held my pride in check, and walked away.
