Re: Gun Violence Archive

You falsify the documents to get the results you want.

Not guilty!  This is the only document we have at the moment; I have
not offered any interpretation whatsoever, save to say that, if all
there is to it is a media story, that isn't enough to cause me to
reject the null hypothesis.

That "null hypothesis" stuff is just a high falutin' way of saying
"burden of proof".  In a criminal case, the null hypothesis is not
guilty; the jury must reject this.

Union & First Ave... as *down* as "downtown" Seattle gets.  It could
just as easily ben a dope deal gone south.  Likely we'll never know.
If I cared, I'd order a copy of the police report, but usually, it
will contain little beyond what they release.  If that explicitly says
that it was "self defense", then I'll buy it... otherwise, it's just
another shoot-out on the street.

There isn't enough evidence to call it self defense.
