    Russian Roullette only dumber



    Lesson 1) Russian Roullette is bad
    Lesson 2) Russian Roullete is designed for revolvers not guns that automatically chamber a round
    life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

    "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

    Russian Roulette is also usually played by pulling the trigger on yourself...
    Trust is knowing someone or something well enough to have a good idea of their motivations and character, for good or for ill. People often say trust when they mean faith.

      Thus not tempting annoyed DAs to respond with "You can't possibly be this stupid, we're gonna go with a flat murder charge," until multiple witnesses say, "Wait a sec, he really can be that stupid!" loud enough that a plea bargain is considered.

          Why didn't the other people actually do something to take the gun off him instead of just sitting back and commenting? Seems like they're all at least somewhat culpable.

            Reminds me of a debate we had in class the other day about a specific case (Lamb 67), the case resulted in a reverse of the above story, as the defendant couldn't comprehend how revolvers work, so he was completely off the hook even when he shot his mate in the face >.<, (it says 'boys' but they were around 17-20)

            Honestly so much stupid stuff happens with guns these days it's actually kinda sad how little it surprises me ~.~.
