Here's mine ...

There was nothing about this story that gives rise to the proverbial "Good Shoot." A "Good Shoot" would by definition be an aimed and intentionally discharged shot, fired so as to stop a reasonable and actual threat of death or great bodily harm (jurisdiction dependent). An admittedly...

Juna, where did you hear this? There is absolutely nothing in the Michigan Compiled Laws or any case, published or unpublished, I have ever seen to support this.

Oh, sure there is. Go read it all again.

My favorite? Colt. I'm not saying others aren't good, or that Colt is necessarily the best, but it is my favorite.

It was the same when I turned 18 in 1974. I owned several pistols, in my name, before I was 21. Just needed a little assistance from my father.

No, actually not. Expert witnesses, whether Mr. Ayoob, an accident reconstructionist or an orthopedic surgeon, are retained by defense counsel, not the insurance company. Under absolutely no circumstances where FRE 411 or its state equivalent is applicable would the fact of the defendant's...

What an excellent idea! I checked the Michigan Legislature website, and there does not yet appear to be an actual bill proposed, but I will keep my eyes open for it.
