Yeh, I can be accused of occasionally trying to confuse people with the facts. It usually trips them up.

It can also be observed that some in this forum like to accuse other members of mistakes and bad thought, but couch it in general terms, to avoid having to actually show such has taken place.

Some people can occasionally be accused of insufferable self-regard. Smugness, even.

It's important to remember that Freddie Gray didn't have the use of his legs after Nero got done with him.

Yeh, we should all strive to ensure that we don't allow facts to get in the way of a good story.

All kidding aside, one of the problems of the current era is facts are getting too plastic, and we don't have common trusted sources that provide us all with a common grounding of fact.

What is the big fact you've revealed here, BTW? That the state's case here was 'novel?'

That's it?

That's not much of a fact. It's at least half opinion.

I can see some logic so far as a "bogus" arrest leading to liability.

I am too disgusted with this verdict to even comment on it.

The fact that he had nothing to do with Gray's death, for starters.
