Hell no...If I decide that if I was told golf was illegal...regardless of how much I intended to do it...I doubt I would (depending on the likelihood of getting caught and the consequences of getting caught).

There's lots of people that had the law not barred it I would have acted on my intentions for some form of revenge.

You do have the free will to suppress intentions.

and I'm saying what you call free will is caused by other things.

with all due respect...

how do you walk around during the day without running into things?

i'll repeat it again...i don't know quite how it works but i know it feels like i intend to not walk into things.

or was your question just a slight? (not sure)

what i'm saying is that in order to be intentional in any meaningful way, that decision can't be caused by anything else. but if it's not caused by anything then it's random and arbitrary. i can't imagine any mechanism where a decision can be caused to happen intentionally without any cause and retain any moral value.

until we understand the mechanism of causation, i don't think it's fair to judge people based on the equation because i can't believe something actually happens simply because it feels like it happens.

Nothing mentioned about the State charges. The DA there was going to bring charges that could amount to up to 40 years of time. I assume all of this is contingent on those state charges being dropped.

not that's he's pleaded guilty, am i right in understanding now that the state can prosecute for EACH dog found???? wow.

annarborgator · Post by **annarborgator** » Mon Aug 27, 2007 10:30 am

not sure rad, but it wouldn't surprise me if each dog was another count in their indictment. depends on the actual charges brought and the statutes.

any word on the sentence or when it will be handed down?

IHateUGAlyDawgs · Post by **IHateUGAlyDawgs** » Mon Aug 27, 2007 11:39 am

Dec. 10 is the sentencing date.

ironically enough...same day as a Mon. night game between the Saints and the....Falcons.

Just what the NFL was hoping for I'm sure.
