What is Lobster going to do when he looses all three of his trifecta? Trump, Kyle and the housing market?

[Sparko]

It would be righteous karma.

Not sure if I give them first prize but they deserve an honorable mention.

[ousdahl]

true to the costume, she’s got her finger on the trigger and everything

[seahawk]

I'd give them first prize--that's hysterical.

Kyle's bail set at $2 mil

the judge mentioned his flight risk, and also that there's a national network of lobsters willing to support and harbor him

I'm wondering what is going through the kid's mind.
He is now famous and I figure he's adored by 25% of the country. Of the other 75% - 25% probably like him, 25% don't really give a shit, and the last 25% hate him. Some people take as much pleasure in being hated as they do being loved so if that's the case with the Houser - at least half the country is making the kid feel as if he is the king of the world.
Do you think he's watching all the TV he wants, playing video games, on the internet, listening to music, watching beastiality porn, playing with a G.I. Joe doll, eating McDonalds or whatever else he wants 3 meals a day? Or do you think he's sitting in a cell miserable. My guess is it's somewhere in-between.
His life is probably not all that much worse today than it was before he shot 3 people.
Just think, the Ky guy can write a book, sell movie rights to his story, make millions off of his killing people.
Isn't America great!?!? For guys like him. Not for those who get shot and killed by assholes with AR-15s.

Third grand juror in Breonna Taylor case: Prosecutors wanted to give officers 'slap on the wrist'

"Killings classified as hate crimes skyrocketed by more than 100% to a record high last year as all forms of hate crime continue to rise throughout the country, according to data released Monday by the FBI.

The FBI data shows there were 51 murders last year that were reported as hate crimes, up 113% percent from the 24 in 2018 and the most since the bureau started compiling such data after Congress passed the Hate Crimes Statistics Act in 1990."

I thought funds were only available to those 18+. So did he use his moms funds?

[Deleted User 289]

Excellent point and question. The article and what HE said are somewhat confusing.
What I don't understand is how/why his powerhouse attorneys haven't put a lid on him and his mother.
Unless they have them "scripted" before they talk to the media/press and it's some type of ploy.

[Sparko]

The interview confirms premeditation. And that he illegally procured a firearm used in capital murder. Not sure he was eligible for COVID funds living at home, but obviously that was badly controlled.

[TDub]

You would need to be 18+ AND not claimed as a dependent on your parents taxes. So, that story doesnt really add up.

Interesting. Because the story was constructed for some purpose and will be tested in court. My gut feeling is he is trying to kiss up to NRA types. And is expecting a pardon maybe? Pisser that everything is politics. Even wanton murder.

Good.

Now let's hope he actually gets punished accordingly.

Indicted on first degree murder

Out on $2 Million bond.
