I can't believe this.

Coulda just pulled over for the cops.

Didn't.

Coulda just called the cops, let her out the front door.

Didn't.

But you can choose to take that as you want, as can I. The most basic level of common sense is pretty much on my side here though.

Likewise

WW coulda left earlier when she said she was intending to.

Didn't.

WW coulda stopped hitting GT when he asked her to.

Didn't

WW coulda left when she was adamantly told to.

Didn't

WW coulda not attempted grievous bodily harm, and just left via the front door.

Didnt

Yep you're right...coulda coulda coulda.... you make a great point .

You have got to be kidding me.

 

[Rahamare]

What does this mean? What happens now?

 

[CleverKnot]

Lol, except I mean his overuse of force was anything but peaceful. Nice try though.

My "peaceful" reference was some exaggeration for effect.

Misinterpretation of words abound!

A paid shill?! :maddening:

I know that GT's DUI is irrelevent, kind of anyway, to this case, but it goes to show what type of person he is. He gets in a vehicle drunk and drives, and that shows his disregard for his passengers lives or the lives of other innocent people driving on the road. He could care less, and that says a lot about his disregard for the safety of other people's lives. He is always just an accident waiting to happen, and if he is not pulled up in his tracks he will keep going IMO until he is stopped in his tracks. If he is acquitted i believe it will embolden him further. His prior run ins with the police show us what kind of character he is. All IMO.

Yet if you were to use the same logic in assessing the victim, what is that called again?

Can one really be so daft????

I would be very interested to see what Justice Lucy McCallum (who presided over the Gittany balcony case) would say to a jury in this case. Or what judgement she alone would make if analyzing the evidence presented to the court.
There was 69 unrecorded seconds between Gittany's assault and Lisa Harnums fall to her death. Justice McCallum had a theory for what occurred in those 69 seconds and also had theories for what was occurring in the mind of Simon Gittany.
This case has been handled completely differently.

Because the Tostee case is completely different. The only similarity in each case is that a women fell from a great height - the reason that led to that are totally different in each case. Comparing apples with clay pidgeons there.

How could anybody be so freaking stupid? It just beggars belief.
