So basically it shoots ammo and looks "military," which it sort of is, but is still as poorly suited for its home defense purpose as it possibly could be without just not being a gun at all. Like the Rustang, he thinks it looks "cool" and "manly," even though he'd be better off with a plain old shotgun like any other normie.
Did he freak out ɓefore entering the court?
That is exactly how I picture a pseudo-intellectual charlatan would fatly describe the situation.
I don't necessarily agree the SFWA had anything to do with this, but if they did it's because they are (as of 2014) a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. The assets of such organizations are not supposed to inure to the benefit of any individual. They do have defense funds and other legal aid, but it's hard to see how suing people for writing bad reviews of your books or calling you fat is anything other than a private interest.
It has a specific meaning, but probably not whatever Fatty meant to convey. It means you have allowed someone to go around acting as if on your behalf, and you had the power to stop them or disclaim agency, but instead chose to benefit from their actions, even if you never hired them or even communicated with them.
Yes, correct. No Niki in court on Thursday
Pretty much. To be quite honest if you're not big into guns and only own one you can't go wrong with a Mossberg or Remington shotgun. You can hunt everything from rabbits and squirrels, or turkeys and stuff up to deer or feral hogs and they're great for home defense.
My understanding is that it is because they used their charity funds to pay the 100k for legal fees along with other rumors about them mishandling funds generated from member dues. They spent additional thousands to quash motions that would have opened their books up to scrutiny so my theory is that they just want all of this to go away before they find themselves in trouble with the IRS
But why would paying quasi themselves make that all go away?
This is the explanation from the other forum that makes the most sense to me
For home defense I would want something as basic as possible. The last thing I need in a moment of blind panic and terror is suddenly not to be able to figure out my gun on top of everything else. Everyone likes to act like they'd be Dirty Harry in that situation but unless (and probably even if) you have experience it is not a situation conducive to messing around with complicated tech.
Who else cares enough to spend their own money on that? (Not that I think this actually happened.)
I guess it would be specifically patrick's financial connections to the SFWA, maybe there's more there than the 100k given to Thomlinson that Pat's records would reveal publicly and SFWA doesn't want uncovered by a US court as it would lead to more questions and trolls on twitter doing some citizen investigations.
I was under the impression that Lynn gunt guards Patrick because she believes the stalker childs are ALL MAGA huwhite supremacists, and she has been giving them money for their lifestyle. Is this just my imagination?
Oh maybe so, I actually don't know much about Nikki's family other than it is widely speculated that they finance patty.
