            Well I don’t know. I actually recognized it hat you wrote as probably being Haitian Creole but I had to double check with a translator. I don’t speak Louisiana Creole and Wikipedia says there is only 10,000 speakers.

            I saw your Creole response and was wondering why someone would respond to an English post in Creole and went to your profile to see if you were Haitian. Then I realized your joke lol

              Well I’m glad your “fyi” was based on personal knowledge or intense research instead of thinking google translate could actually figure out the difference. 🙄 Maybe I’m one in 10k. Or maybe the dialect is really similar. Ou se yon moun parese wi!

    What if the gunfire causes an abortion? What if someone drops a frozen embryo due to the gunfire? What if a librarian accidentally orders a banned book due to the gunfire? What if the gunfire makes someone transexual?

    We’re going to need some clarification here.

    This has to be the most deranged law in the history of laws. Murder being a crime is probably one of the few things you can count on everywhere if there’s a working state.

    Hard to know all the details from this article, but it seems like they are raising the bar for civil suits as a result of an action with a firearm to the same level as a criminal action. Basically changing the standard from being a preponderance of evidence to beyond reasonable doubt.
    https://thedefenders.net/blogs/preponderance-of-evidence/

    So essentially, if you’re found not-guilty after using a firearm in a self-defense situation, then you are also shielded from a civil action for that event.

    This is probably in response to “robber sues homeowner after being injured while breaking into a house” stories that float around occasionally.

    Heck, I could be way off base here, but that’s how I read it.
