Yeah I had been sure he thought he was asked to bring it because there was a grizzly spotted nearby

I believe that was in the defense attorney’s statement. Also, Miller was on his way to small group and had just finished up his stint at the local soup kitchen.
I jest. Obviously this whole thing is no laughing matter. But the absurdity of Alabama’s “Let it ride!” mentality has brought my sarcasm out.
You laugh, but Flick said he saw some grizzly bears near Pulaski's candy store
I'm a pretty big believer in firearms restrictions generally and not interested in debating it. However, I dated a woman from Fairbanks (her dad was a pipeline worker and mom was a bush pilot, so about as Alaskan as you get) and having spent just a little bit of time in central Alaska in the middle of winter, I would own multiple firearms if I lived there, absolutely.
It's a unique type of remoteness.
Whitlock hasn't been taken seriously as a commentator on issues in years, especially recently.
As far as any potential accessory charge for Miller, this helps break it down a bit more: https://www.al.com/news/2023/02/why...egal-experts-say-it-comes-down-to-intent.html
In Alabama, the prosecutors would have to prove intent by Miller in transporting the firearm for an illegal purpose. To this point, there is no evidence of that.

He's taken serious enough to have a wide audience on his platform every day. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean they feel the same as you.
Classic
Tell that to your parents and they'll look at you as if you have lobsters crawling out of your ears.
I wouldn't exactly call being on The Blaze having a wide audience on a platform.

It could be that any laws he broke due to his possession of the weapon at all are being waived to get over the top cooperation. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Additionally, his possession was more than a little accidental. He possessed the gun without ever seeing or touching it. And he may not have known it was loaded until a few minutes before arriving at the Strip.

I think it's because that source you are citing is outdated. Alabama passed a law last year getting rid of permit requirements for guns effective Jan. 1st, 2023. The shooting happened in mid-January.

Wow…I don’t know what to say.
You’d think they’d want to distance themselves from the entire thing in every way possible.
Just…wow.
Please tell me that was his standard starting lineup ritual long before this all happened.

They are truly trash. My wife was sympathetic until I showed her this. I was trying to be reasonable. Nothing is going to happen to Miller, nor Oats, nor Alabama. But, any sports fan or a person with any decency would be rooting against that team.
Not trying to be a jerk... But even if it was does it really matter?
Kid may be legally innocent, but at best he's a moron and at worst he's an accomplice to a murder who is not getting charged because of lawyer speak.

He's not getting charged because the cops can't find anything that the DA thinks would stick.
The lawyer speak is to make sure NBA teams don't think he's as much of a risk
Last year when we did our extended family NCAA basketball poll (we add some pretty creative stuff), my brother-in-law and I had 5 particular coaches we rooted against: Pearl, Calipari, Self, Sampson, and Wade. We had to explain that to several other family members. I will replace Wade with Oats this year.
That is reprehensible. Complete lack of remorse or respect for the family of that innocent DEAD young women. The University thought this would be a good Idea????? Hope they all get their pink slips.
