    Oh yeah, "Negligent homicide". And while it's not full murder-1 or anything, it's still enough to get you put behind bars for a significant chunk of your life. And maybe keep you from legally owning guns, so that's a plus.

    Also I'm pretty sure Tazers have a much different feel and weight to them than a gun, and you have to look down the gun to aim, so she'd have to claim she was REALLY hopped up on adrenaline to not notice when she grabbed the gun that it wasn't a Tazer.
    Much different feel, weight, and they're held on the opposite side to their standard issue firearm.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Or a few days before that when the veteran cop, who also serves as an police advocate and has gone to bat for other questionable officers over the course of her near three decade career, shot a young black man to death and is defending herself with "I meant to grab for my taser".
    There was also a teenage girl who called the police and then got shot today

    IIRC, she was in charge of training officers

    i can honestly say that "eden's zero" has a cast where the supporting characters are far more interesting than the MC.

    Now of course this is an edited combo video and Desk is an execution god - insert SFV joke here - but these day 0 Rose combos, wow.

    Quite unlike SF4 where she had maybe a handful of mixups and relied more on buttons, she seems to have some interesting new options. VT2 is like the new Genei-jin, and that's terrible lol

    I am 100% in support of this. I hope it continues - still a long way to go.

    Will leave it at that.

    The current Ms. Marvel has some good elements in it. The art this month is quite interesting - almost a manga flair - and while I'm uncertain about the current situation between Carol and Stephen Strange, it does make for some amusing scenes.

    Though I'm not really 100% happy about how the artist has decided to make Stephen look more hip.

    Edit: New Eternals comic is both weird and awesome.
