Could make his SYG defense problematic.

So much for his credibility.

For example, if duel US and German, you use the German passport to enter Germany and the US passport to enter US. If he were going to Canada, just carry the US.

(17,502 posts)But I don't think they will go for the SYG hearing. I see it going to trial as it would under the old DTR law. In this case, I think it would be a good thing. At best, it would put to rest the speculation, lies, propaganda put out by those who demonised one or the other. At worst, he won't get a fair trial.

(54,770 posts)to feel sorry for him because you think he won't get a fair trial.
Personally, I don't think they can find 12 jurors in that town to convict Zimmy for shooting a Black teenager, after all he was wearing a hoodie, looked suspicious, and did not yield his ground to the Z-man-with-a-gun-for-courage.
You think that is fair?

(1,018 posts)If you think Zim is guilty and they can't find 12 people who will convict then the trial will be unfair. Good to see agreement.

(599 posts)anti gun extremist. I challenge you to prove one iota of what you just said. You must have gone to the Hoyt school of demagoguery and graduated with flying colors.
Like your crap hasn't been posted here before.
On edit: Are you Hoyt's twin? Because you sound just like him almost word for word.

just walking down the street or reading a post on the internet you can tell who or what is a "gun nut"? Wow, you must be a really talented person. Can you tell me what the winning lottery numbers are?
Your bigotry toward lawful gun owners is showing through.

which only goes to prove once again than gun nuts are largely authoritarian control freaks because they like to cite as one of their reasons for carrying, protecting themselves from the results of policies put in place by authoritarian control freaks.

Not the least of which is the deflation of criminal activity surrounding them.

We are now at 1960's levels of crime.
