The real question is, since Uncle Joe is a lawyer AND a public figure, can his "advice" be considered "sound legal opinion" to be admitted into evidence for the defense?
Several years ago in Pflugerville, Tx, about 6 "utes" approached a house where a young lady had dissed the utes. Daddy emptied a mag from his Beretta thru the front door and managed to off one of the participants. Grand Jury no-billed. And all the participants were minorities. Ain't Texas self-defense law GRAND?
Just following orders from Uncle Joe! Can't be wrong, right?
ReplyDeleteIf it had gone badly would that defense hold up in court?

IIRC that was tried in Washington right after "shotgun" Joe gave that advice and the court threw it out.
ReplyDeleteThe holes look a bit low to be really effective at saving taxpayer dollars over the next few years.
