No. Not picking a fight either, but do you have any evidence that it didn’t ever matter? My opinion is that juries are not entirely rational. The gun used should not matter, and OJ should have been convicted for murder. If someone wants a flame thrower for personal defense, I’d suggest a shotgun. But that’s just my opinion.
I hear internet arguments like the one you made all of the time, but nobody ever backs them up with tangible facts.
Same with people who OC being targets of BG’s.
Show me the evidence of either!
