This house is made of brick, wolf. Blow yourself out.
I require a moderator to determine fact from fantasy, and also to adjudicate on how much effort you expend in moving the goal posts.
The only way you could win a debate with me is if we played by your rules, as they changed from minute to minute. Even then, goy boy, your chances would be minimal.
A moderator determines the rules of the debate, which include ruling on issues which maybe fact or opinion.
We do not necessarily have to use the Oxford Rules of Debate, although I am familiar with them and these would be my preference.
The white flag? Shove it up your rectum.
Sir, I am the moderator you seek.
Alrighty. we have a moderator.
Well go for it then
The 1st thing you’ll have to do is prove is intent, obviously you won’t go far with your “attempted murder” charge, if you can’t show intent.
They couldn’t do it with a group of thug bouncers at Crown casino that killed a man, so I don’t know how well you will go proving the intent of the officers in this case was to kill.
Not sure even the coroner agreed there was intent to kill?
Any way that’s enough help, good luck…..
First things first. Let's establish the facts and see where they fit in a legal framework.
On (date) at (time), (person) was reported for commiting an offense and (number) of police (names) sought to spprehend said person.
Said unarmed person resisted arrest and a chase ensued. The officers drew their tasers and repeatedly fired at the person, which led to his death.
I need to know the following:
Was there another method of subduing the person?
What methods other than tasering are taught at the academy to subdue people?
What are the guidelines for use of a taser, including the risks involved, and the number of times a taser may be effectively but safely used on a 'normal' person (The eggshell skull filter?
How soon after the victim was rendered unconscious was medical assistance called for?
What were the nature of the injuries?
What medical assistance did the victim receive, the time it was provided and the nature of the assistance?
When was he pronounced deceased?
Were there any witness statements, and are these reliable?
Was a check of the tasers conducted to determine whether or not they performed within operational standards.
Once we have agreement on the facts and the questions are answered and examined, we then have a scenario to which we may apply legal principles.
I hope the moderator will take an active part.
