Our laws aren’t entirely dissimilar in principal, but the terminology can vary dramatically. Overall it is more similar to that of maritime law. We are still under Napoleanic Code. That code has conformed with US federal law, but it creates a language barrier that is unnecessarily confusing.

You were given evidence. It just doesn’t meet your, or the judicial system’s for that matter, burden of proof. So the investigation will continue but at he moment it is insufficient to bring charges. So legally the cops had to let him go or risk a civil liberties lawsuit.

Well...that’s why there is so much gray in this area. In New Orleans there is a high rate of car jacking (I live here.) The police just made an announcement that women riding alone who are in an accident in the city should not exit the vehicle or roll down the window until the police arrive. The SYG law carrying over…

Well that depends on the shade of black and how many skittles the person is carrying...you’re a very confused person.

Yea. But those are just your facts. I feel like this is racist. Therefore it is hate crime. Therefore we don’t need a trial to find this man guilty for shooting an innocent black child. White Proveldge!!!!  

You are ill-informed, sir.

Not a law professor, huh?

“i said it then and i’ll say it now...we should never have fought the Civil War...should have let them go.” - so you’re 150+ Years old. Got it.

It’s great how you apply racism and sexism to deduce racism and sexism. Sound logic.

The same tax advantages ARE available to you. You not taking advantage of them doesn’t make you more or less moral.

Analogy police: No it is not like stealing a car at all. It WOULD be like your car being totaled, claiming the new purchased car’s price against your annual income, and later once the insurance claim paid, not claiming the difference on the next years returns.

Other companies are also continuing to invest in infrastructure while mainting profits. Granted Tesla is innovating the market quite a bit, so theirs is sleeper along with their “cost to enter” the market, which should be finished by now.

They need to design a wireless charging pad that you park on in various places, home, offices, retail and grocery stores. That way you could go to the store, use an App or machine onsite to activate the charging station, go in and come out with 5-10% battery charge (10-20miles). That would be great and more…

Where most people live, outside of your small world, there are no charging stations constructed. I talk to people who have Teslas where I live, because I want one, and they all tell me the same thing. No mechanic will touch it in a 100 mile radius and if you want to take a trip out of the city you have to take another…

They did. That’s why it took a while for the automobile to come around. It wasn’t practical until the infrastructure was in place. Doesn’t do much good to travel around in a model-T on roads built for horse and buggies and where there are no gas stations...

Planet Earth is not running “low on fossil fuels.” I’m not saying we shouldn’t invest in other energies but the “running low on fossil fuels” myth was based on a very outdated study. Today we have discovered fossil fuels in places we never thought to look before, and our methods for extracting those resources has…

Telsa is still losing money on the cars it sells at the higher rates, not including the subsidies. Their idea was by increasing production they could elevate to a higher economy of scale and bring their numbers in the green. Car makers earn their bonuses on luxury models; but they guarantee their jobs with base,…

Feel better soon!

Yes. It’s actually written that it’s for “White men only.” How stupid are you? If this were a white teenage male shooting their father in their home they would also be put in jail until they were released on a judges orders or granted bail. You can not prove the adult was abusive or in the process of abusing and…

To be fair Jindal “cut” programs that were already bankrupt. the state can’t “go broke” from Jindal reducing the budget. That’s silly.
