I walk up to you on the street and intentionally knock you to the ground, I'm guilty of a crime. If you die, manslaughter is definitely in the cards, even if unintentional.

Wait a minute, you are in LA. Nevermind, in LA, everything goes!

No, that's Texas. One state over, Mike.

Hey isn't "he needed killin'" still a valid defense of a homicide charge in NC?

But in LA, they just dump your a$$ in the bayou and let the gators take care of the evidence.

Well, not everything, but close!
Doubtful that you could get assault and /or battery charges filed in softball game (that does have train wrecks) during/in the course of a play.
After the play when the fists start flying... thats a whole 'nother thang.
But, thats just me picking nits.
BTW: i've never been "convicted" of feeding anyone to any "alleged" gators. I was out of town on that date.

Please note that I said "intentionally". Since crashing into and bowling over a player is not part of the softball game, then the runner is no longer playing softball.

Alleged? Boy, oops, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to offend you . Son,...damn, there I go again. Mr. CNB, there is absolutely nothing alleged about the gators in LA or any other area in the South.

LOL...ok old-timer.. erm, i mean Mr. IRI5HMAFIA ....erm, I mean Mr. IRISHMAFIA... I gotta stop watching those lawyer shows with the wife...you'd think after 3-4 years of it I'd at least get the terminologies (sp) correct. You'd think.

Still don't agree about someone filing criminal charges for that. but then again no one asked me.

If I were playing softball, and some guy intentionally leveled me on the field, leaving me injured and with medical bills, yeah, I would file charges. Then I'd sue his a$$.
