it's just you, it looks good on my computer, next time check on internet archive instead of asking DIY

I think there should be alternatives and once a candidate medication advances many tests the last test before Human trials should be animal trials, it is more unethical to try it directly on humans. It is simply better that a human is spared suffering if complex interaction not caught by the alternatives exist.

Does not matter if it is opensource if a piece of rock is designated a National Security Risk because the Rock came from CHina that is it, that rock is a national security risk. The designation is assigned then action must follow; you cannot question a national security risk that is why it is designated a national security risk if it caused health problems you would be told by the Centers for Disease Control or US Department of Health and Human Services. A National Security Risk can be anything that they assign, it can even be a thought otherwise known as a thought-crime. Stop asking why?

Amazing work this is really innovative and it could be applied to a larger drones provided that the margin of error is reduced.

It is amazing but this one won't be practical the way it is right now when scaled up, but there is a unique element in there that probably could be re-used.

Anyone commenting please watch the video first. Would a reasonable jury determine this to be Attempted Second-degree Murder? perhaps it is, any thoughts from a person with criminal law experience? We clearly see the car turning, going out of its way towards the person. Additionally, a pursuit on foot would have been possible the car qualifies as a deadly weapon in this case I think.

> criminal law experience

So IANAL, let alone a trial-lawyer, but I did spend weeks/days with 11 other people listening/deliberating after a cop-adjacent defendant non-fatally shot somebody.

> Attempted Second-degree Murder?

Hold up, what this means varies by state: Illinois law says that second-degree still requires an intent to kill [0], and I think the prosecution may have a hard time proving beyond reasonable doubt that the driver intended to turn the victim into road-splatter.

In contrast, the next step down of (attempted?) "Involuntary Manslaughter and Reckless Homicide" seems much easier to prove, and explicitly draws in a surprising number of vehicle-related details.

"intent" is not what you're representing. You don't have to be a lawyer to understand using lethal force will result in death.

A reasonable person would expect severe injury or death from running somebody over, and that is enough to satisfy 'intent.'

"Caaarl!! THAT KILLS PEOPLE!" "How was I supposed to know stabbing him 37 times in the chest would do that?"


Did you read the link with the law? You are begging the question that the driver's direct intent was to run the victim over. (Not recklessness, idiocy, target fixation, etc.)

It's quite possible, but if you're going to prosecute someone in a court case, you've got to have a lot more than just "it fits the pattern for these assholes."


>Would a reasonable jury determine this to be Attempted Second-degree Murder?

would you?

I would certainly consider him guilty, if not of exactly that crime.


> Would a reasonable jury determine this to be Attempted Second-degree Murder?

No, because it’s a law enforcement officer doing it.


> No, because it’s a law enforcement officer doing it.

Possible! Many police officers have gone to jail for murdering people.


Not to mention the "re-positioning" of the victim's vehicle to shore up ICE's narrative.

Don't worry though, just like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50090246 someone will be along to say "mistakes are inevitable, but we need to enforce immigration law, and this is an acceptable price, though not ideal".
