Pretty sure they didn't have a trial because the guy he shot wasn't killed, and he was a friend who didn't press charges. Had he pressed charges I'm pretty sure there would have been a trial.

Cheney was in a group that was hunting at the time of that real accident. It WAS investigated and the guy didn't die. In fact his deposition supported Cheney's and the other members of the hunting party on what happened.

What the f*ck was this POS hunting on a pier in downtown San Fran. A seagull?

B.S. Even if you believe the POS IT IS at least negligent homicide.

"ricochet"? So you ASSume he's a good marksman? Frickin idjit

This was a POLITICAL verdict, not a lawful one.

You can easily find a 1000 cases where someone picked up a gun pulled the trigger not knowing it was loaded, injuring or killing a person and it is determined to be accidental, why is this any different?

Because he’s brown and from Mexico and reinforces their narrative that all illegal immigrants are rapists and murderers. Bad hombres and all that

They tried to charge for too much. They would have been able to nail him for manslaughter.

Yea, if only they would have charged him with involuntary manslaughter, or even assault with a deadly weapon. If only.

He was acquitted of involuntary manslaughter.

The only ones I've seen where that happens involve family members. I've never personally seen that happen between 2 complete strangers.

Type in "accidental shooting" here & the threads are short ( a few pages for the most part) & somewhat dismissive.

Just looking at it from a safety perspective, no one has any business fooling around with a gun in that setting. It's sort of like running over someone with your car because you're texting.

it was an idiotic prosecutors fault.

The jury was to decide between Murder 1 and involuntary manslaughter.

California (no surprise here) has some bizarrely fricked up laws.

The following quote is not my opinion, it is from California Code and Findlaw:

quote:

quote:
In California, Homicide during the commission of a felony often results in a murder charge rather than a manslaughter charge. Murder 1 requires intent and malice.

When a killing occurred during the commission of a crime that is not a felony, the prosecutor must prove that the defendant had a criminal intent to commit the underlying unlawful act. If the defendant did not intend to engage in the crime that resulted in homicide, the state may be unable to prove involuntary manslaughter. The defendant may be able to establish a lack of intent by showing a reasonable mistake or lack of knowledge.


if my understanding of the law in California is correct, and the Prosecutor chose to give the jury murder 1 or involuntary manslaughter then that prosecutor is a fricking retard and deserves all of the hatred and blame, and I wouldn't bat an eye if he dies. He basically picked two charges that require intent for a case that had a defendant with an easily provable lack of intent.

The problem is murder 1 requires malice and intent. A good defense attorney can get him out of murder 1. Involuntary manslaughter in California can be taken off the table if the defendant can show "a lack of knowledge or reasonable mistake" however I find it unbelievable that that stupid fricking jury all agreed that firing a gun into a crowded pier is a reasonable mistake or you lack the knowledge that firing a gun into a crowd can kill someone.

Question to me?

Frankly it fits well within Marcuse belief system which is modern political correctness.

Marcuse identified and promoted the idea of creating victim groups within a society, not because he cared for these proposed victims but to use these groups to create disorder, conflict, violence within society as a whole.

These "victim groups" become protected classes, again not for their benefit but to promote an in-equality which will promote strife within traditional society.

Marcuse specifically rejects logic, reason, objectivity as a means to determine truth. Like most ideologues his truth is relative or basically what one can convince of is truth, there are no acceptable objective measures.

Everything is political to Marcuse.

And in phraseology he is mostly opposite from it appears as a meaning.

MLK's nonviolence per Marcuse was actually violence, Black Panther violence is actually non violence, and so on.

"liberating" Tolerance according to Marcuse is:

Anything a Leftist does is ok, one should never criticize a leftist.

Nothing a non Leftist does is ok, particularly any action of a conservative.

If a leftist commits any vile act or if a Leftist POLICY destroys the economy, even if a leftist policy leads to the deaths of millions of people.

That's OK, that's acceptable because Marcuse's intent is to destroy traditional society here in the U.S. Nothing within Marcusean belief system would create a civil society because that's not its intent.

But back to Liberating tolerance (actual the intolerance of the left)

If a non leftist particularly a conservative creates millions of jobs, stimulates a booming economy, that is a bad thing because that would not further the leftist goal. Even if someone cures cancer, that's bad because it would create a positive view of society, and Marcuse promoted only a negative view, any positive view of traditional society could not be tolerated.

Political correctness is the fruition of Marcuse intent for every individual's action to be viewed only through a political lense.
The only important education is indoctrination according to him.

How does this fit in Steinle's case?

Marcuse would identify Zarata as part of a "victim" group and therefore a protected class.
Not because he thought he was a victim but simply because traditionalist, conservatives object to illegal immigration, particularly criminal illegal immigrants.

As a individual victimized by "hate" speech, by inequality endemic in our racist, zenophobic society, he is simply a product of society, (per Marcuse) though his action killed a women, he cannot be held responsible for his actions.

Of course I don't agree at all. Marcuse was nuts and his followers equally so but their influence in institutions are considerable.

And of course Open borders is an essential leftist policy because it creates constant destabilization of mainstream society, and the whole intent of Marcusean Neo Libs is to destroy what is considered to be the traditional American society.

you people do know the bullet bounced off the ground and traveled 80 ft and hit an artery, right. You do know that a ballistics/firearm expert testify that the best marksmen on the planet would not be able to duplicate the tragic shot even under lab conditions.

yes the guy was illegal, and should have been deported

no this was not murder

the jury was instructed to consider 3 tiers of criminality, murder, 2nd degree murder and involutary manslaughter.


from one of many articles

Garcia Zarate faced a charge of second-degree murder, but jurors also were allowed to consider first-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter convictions.
