'Mechanical malfunction' .....brought on by shrapnel from a air-burst munition.

Right. But logic would suggest that this only matters if he was let off based on the claim that it was a mechanical malfunction rather than him pulling the trigger. If the prosecutors reasoning didn't include the functional status of the gun, a change in that assessment shouldn't affect the...

Did he get off based on his claim that the gun discharged due to a malfunction ?

No, no, it's terrible there. You don't want to be there, not at all ! For the OP, what do you mean with 'Pittsburgh' ? Are you planning on a downtown condo or somewhere in the leafy burbs ? A few things about the town: - It's all bridges and 'no left turns'. Traffic is extremely time of day...

You tell me! I quoted the part I asked you to clarify.

Please clarify who those people are.

Where does that 'standard dosage' come from ? From what I can find, a joint is on average 0.3grams of plant material. That's more like 60mg per serving. Don't know what the bioavailability is in the smoked form.

You are quoting a paragraph where I say 'less harmful'. What am I missing here ?

Ah, no. In every one of these states, if someone wants to get a coast guard license, fly a plane, operate a nuclear reactor or own a gun, their use of the substance is still illegal and disqualifying.

As for the amount stated. A joint contains between 0.3 and 0.75gram of cannabis. So depending how 'fat' he rolled them, his 1/4 oz/day pot habit would translate to 6-15 joints a day. That seems a lot, but then, that's what addiction does.

You selectively edited my post and misrepresent what I said. I said for the interaction with federal law, it is irrelevant whether the drug was legally obtained at the state level. Just because DEA doesn't raid state sanctioned pot producers does NOT indicate that it is de facto legal. That's...

Certainly interesting discussions we can have these days. To summarize the OP: 'Yes I was delusional but only because of the excessive amounts of recreational THC I consumed as a form of self medication for a sports injury. Am I GTG ?' For starters, medicinal/recreational is wholly irrelevant...

100k loans (at currently 4.99% for fed loan) for a nursing degree is a great deal. Any RN who is financially literate, works full time in the field, puts in some overtime or a travel gig will be able to knock them out in a few years before moving on.

'In one word, Tradition!' - it has always been done that way - it's the only way it can be done - it benefits me, so that is how it should be forever ....

It looks like something put together from the assorted leftovers that accumulate in fridge if you eat a lot of takeout. Just some shredded cheese on top and a bottle of hot sauce on the side.

20 years ago, they had decided that I was a prospective customer for a marquis card. One of the advertising pitches used at the time was that 'your plane is always flown by two captains'. I had a chance to chat with a crew at the airport and asked them and all it meant was that the FOs were...

airlines should just do the net-jets thing. Make everyone captain ;-)

It's not their decision to make. Everything personnel at the airline is the result of a bargaining process. This is United griping about a contract they signed.

I am saying that 99% of the time a Grob 109 is in the air, the propeller is turning. The only time it would fly as a glider is if someone says: You know, on paper, this thing is a glider, today we have really brutal thermals, lets see if we can keep this brick in the air without power.' The...

Those are gliders in name only. In germany, austria and the UK, you are able to fly them with an endorsement to the glider license. Getting a PPL for 'single engine land' was prohibitively expensive, but getting the endorsement in your club was not. Also, you can land a powered glider at an...
