The Bishop and the Butterfly: Murder, Politics, and the End of the Jazz Age

    Apology turns out to be useful alternative to shooting

    Follow-up to Murder in Michigan and Not-Murder Near Michigan.

    Again, this is not rocket science. People have confrontations every day and do not shoot each other. It's illegal, for one thing.

    Really?  I thought it was the trying to force the apology that led to the shooting.


    First of all, where did you get the idea of "trying to force the apology?"  You pulled it out of the same place that you find so much of your posts.  You really don't know what he was seeking when he confronted Zales.

    Secondly, even if it was an apology he was seeking, that is also not grounds for murder. 


    Second question, even if it was an apology he was seeking, that is also not grounds for murder. 

    I never said it wasn't a possible murder but why do you get to judge the matter before all the facts are in . 

    What did you think  Zale was going to do, when he got out if his vehicle and approached Zale? Talk about the weather?

    Again, neither of us were there, so quit acting like the judge and jury.


    You seem quite content to judge the one who got out of the car, and quite discontent to judge the who killed the one who got out of the car. Why is that?
