I put about a half jar of Vicks Vapo Rub on my genitals before I leave the house, and I have never been attacked by a bear or bitten by a dog, ever!
S0omething like 70% of all homicides are never solved.
Just tell the kids it’s like watermelon, they have to spit out the lead pits.
And 62% of all statistics are made up.
Had the numbers backwards
Feb 7, 2007 ... According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, only about 62.6% of homicides are “cleared “ each year,

Yup... taste’s like chicken...

Nope. Sweet like ham. Don’t ask.
Further, 84.636% of those are reported at an unreasonable level of precision. :=)
On a more serious note, this is a piece of advice I received from a retired cop:
If you're ever involved in a self-defense shooting, if you haven't done so already, piss your pants. Be sure that it gets noted in the police report. (Ask when you'll be able to shower and change.) It's hard for anyone to argue that you weren't sufficiently scared when that's in the record.
*It is not good form to piss on your wounded/dead attacker.
Say nothing with FIRST talking to a laywer. Demand your lawyer be present. Pray you come out in one piece.
I know. That’s why I made the connection with the guy who was smoking pork last night.
They're not physically there. If they ask you something and you tell them what you want to tell them instead, they can't rap you on the knuckles with a ruler.
Long pig?

Hmmmnnn ... are you Aztec?

Only under extreme circumstances....[insane laugh]

Without going into a lot of detail, I have the unfortunate experience of calling 911 on the average probably 3 or 4 times a year. The 911 operators are trained to control the call. What are you going to do when they start asking about his medical condition? “Sir, is the victim breathing?” “Huh? Victim? I’m the victim!” “Sir, I’m just trying to save a life. Are you armed?” Well, yes.” “Okay, was the suspect armed?” “Uh, well, I don’t know. I think so.” “Okay, is the suspect breathing? How many times did you shoot him?” When this gets in front of the grand jury, do you want it to appear that you did not want to make an effort to perform first aid?
My only point is that it’s not as simple as “someone just broke into my house and I shot him. “Okay, we’ll send someone right over. Thanks.”
Much more easily said than done. Human bodies are notoriously difficult to dispose of. They don't burn readily (just ask Hitler's aides); they are amazingly bouyant (the decomposing body of an adult can float a small car); they are enormously heavy, messy, and awkward-touch one and it spews out evidence...move it and it leaves a trail of evidence everywhere it goes; and it smells unbelievably bad, so forget about hiding it intact, except by deep burial.
Dismembering it just turns one huge problem into many big problems. And forget about "dissolving" a body. The same rules apply here as for burning it. Moreover, burial in lye actually preseves as often as it destroys. Unless you are a soil scientist, you won't know which effect to expect.
Unless you are fortunate enough to be attacked in a crematorium or on an ice floe in Antarctica, by disposing of the perp's body you are just gonna cover your world with incriminating evidence.
