How is that different from what EVEY OTHER RETAILER that has a house brand does?

A six year old is not capable of the reasoning required to understand the full weight of the consequences of their actions. At that age most children still don't understand that death is permanent.

Motivation for performing that act would likely be driven by seeing it in media or games, which is content children that age shouldn't be exposed to. Not a stellar example of parenting, though we already knew the parents weren't awesome because they kept a loaded gun where a six year old could access it. Just because they see and imitate the act doesn't mean they understand it.

To answer your original question, if a child kills someone with a firearm, you go after the adult who gave the child access to it. Same as if the adult started spinning around in circles shooting randomly and killed someone.

Please tell me you were hearing George Costanza's voice in your head as you wrote that...

Stupid article. Lidar can't see lines painted on the road. Using lidar wouldn't have any impact on the described problem.

Nothing to do with Hamilton. Russell was following Norris's line. Norris clipped the wall before the corner. Russell clipped it at the same place, just a bit harder and broke the car. If he didn't break the car he would have gone around the corner just fine.

He is allowed to move back up (before the braking zone) while leaving a car width on the outside.

You assume that rulings would be consistent. If you read any of the recent decisions you will note plenty of hypocrisy and a decided lack of reasoning consistency in their written opinions. It is almost as if they are trying to justify a predetermined outcome...

So you'll see plenty of rulings in favor of things red states like and against things blue states like.

Yes, modern religion has many rules made by the dicks once they took over. Before the dicks rules were things like don't steal shit, don't fuck your neighbor's wife, don't murder people, don't lie about shit, etc. The dicks were so bad that some other guy had to come along and say "seriously guys, stop being dicks". But the dicks didn't like that so they killed him.

The Church's position in general is that everyone is immoral and going to hell without the Church's help. (See original sin, the sacrament of confession, etc)

He isn't saying "gay is now ok." The pope is saying that the sin of homosexuality shouldn't be treated any different than the sin of lying, greed, stealing, envy, cheating, murder, child molestation, etc.

I think the quote from him below expresses his viewpoint with more nuance than I could:

"The door is open to everyone, everyone has their own space in the church. How will each person live it? We help people live so that they can occupy that place with maturity, and this applies to all kinds of people."

"What I don't like at all, in general, is that we look at the so-called 'sin of the flesh' with a magnifying glass. If you exploited workers, if you lied or cheated, it didn't matter, and instead relevant were the sins below the waist."

"We must not be superficial and naive, forcing people into things and behaviors for which they are not yet mature, or are not capable. To accompany people spiritually and pastorally takes a lot of sensitivity and creativity."

"Everyone, everyone, everyone, are called to live in the church. Never forget that."

Religion, at its core, is basically rules that state "don't be a dick." Unfortunately, all of the dicks didn't get the message.
