Also, I heard Marvin beat the crap out of this guy with his fists, so why would he do that if he could just pull his gun and end the fight right there? So I think the gun was kept at the bar just in case something went down, and when the fight broke out, somebody else at the bar, one of Marvin's employees, pulled the gun, fired the shots, and then stupidly stashed it in a bucket at the car wash down the street. Marvin lies about the gun because he doesn't want to be charged with keeping the gun at the bar (if this is even illegal?). If this is the case, Marvin gets charged with a misdemeanor for having his gun used in a crime. Unless a witness can prove that Marvin fired the gun, or even carried it, I think that's all Marvin will be charged with, and it will be forgotten fairly soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364482294646808855.post-10160446240511647172008-05-03T11:08:00.000-04:002008-05-03T11:08:00.000-04:00There's no way this guy got hit in the hand with a...There's no way this guy got hit in the hand with a .50 cal bullet.

Finally, Colts fans have been able to be pretty sanctimonious for years now because of their squeaky clean image (it comes bundled with Finesse v1.0 and is an add-on with SB Champs v4.1). <BR/><BR/>In the end, even if he is technically innocent as jc, Katrina, and Heatherradish indicate, it's still a bit of a blot on his all-American boy next door image. Based on the tales his mother tells of his Felix Ungerness, I'd more likely expect him to own a few California Closets franchises, maybe a Maid Brigade operation....<BR/><BR/>And in the spirit of innocent until proven guilty (or proven really stupid, which is almost as bad like the Texas guy who tried to kite a $36 Billion check today), I'd like to point out that the shooting victim, convicted murderer or not, is not charged with anything in this except bleeding in public. While we can comfort ourselves with thinking "he's really at fault here, I just *know* it", he should get as much benefit of the doubt as MH. I feel so dirty having said that. Time to shower.<BR/><BR/>And remember, it's always the quiet ones who go postal. Maybe Dungy's next! Maybe he and Marvin barge into the next owners meeting and get all Scarface on the bigwigs. "Lemme introduce you to my little friend!"<BR/><BR/>Okay, another thought--if Katrina is right, that's some fine shooting, putting a .50 cal round through a man's hand in self defense. The kind you only see in phony westerns where the good guy disarms the baddie. Could have blown his whole arm off.<BR/><BR/>And Katrina, I'm not sure how many grains of powder are in those cartridges, but if some of my 120 lb female classmates from the Naval Academy could stand at the range and empty a clip of .45s into targets without being knocked down, why can't a 185 lb pro athlete, who may actually use that cannon for target practice, handle the kick?Bob M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09868145755330857138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364482294646808855.post-24362195064576241582008-05-02T23:03:00.000-04:002008-05-02T23:03:00.000-04:00Take heart JC, the year the Pacers went to the fin...Take heart JC, the year the Pacers went to the finals they barely beat the Bucks in the first round, needing a miracle Travis Best 3 to win it.<BR/><BR/>You didn't really think Doc Rivers could match wits with a Hoosier did you?

Marvin goes to escort him out, Rude Patron throws a punch. Marvin gives him a good North Philly beat down, and Marvin and his bouncer/buddy throw him out and makes sure he gets in his car. Rude Patron gets in car and reaches for gun, brandishing it in front of Marvin. Bouncer/buddy pulls gun he's been "borrowing" from Marvin and shoots to defend them. Guy gets grazed, windshield gets hit, and Rude Patron gets the hell out of dodge. Marvin, freaked the hell out, tells his buddy to go down to his gas station and put it in a bucket.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09840169896038710783noreply@blogger.com
