Maybe sense isn’t as common among people as I thought

“Hey man, bring me my gun. Me and my buddy are gonna walk 5+ miles to outside the city limits at 2 in the morning to find a safe spot for some target practice and then walk back” really seems something that seems plausible?

Says common sense. They weren’t out in the middle of nowhere, they were in downtown Tuscaloosa. Other than a firing range there is no place in the city where the gun can be lawfully discharged.

Target practice is not grounds for an urgent request to bring someone a firearm in the wee hours of the morning. Again, from a legal standpoint, sure he had plausible deniability. But if he thought that they were asking for the gun just for funsies, that’s just willful ignorance

Their primary intended purpose? If someone asks me to bring them something of theirs, it’s a fair assumption that they’re planning or considering using that thing. And since he didn’t ask the kid to bring his gun to him at a gun range, it’s not a big jump to realize that there is at least a risk that he’s going to be using it on someone or something. If someone asks me to bring them their car, ignoring the logistical challenges, then I’d assume they intend to use it for transportation. So unless they ask me to bring it to them in front of a bank mid-robbery, I should be able to reasonably say that they probably don’t intent to do anything potentially injurious

I’m not the person who said that but the distinction is pretty clear. I’m not saying the kid should be legally liable for someone’s deaths or anything but if you really can’t acknowledge the distinction between a weapon and a vehicle then idk what to tell you

I would debate that. If you’re buying a gun for self-defense, it’s with the intention to shoot another human being. You may never end up using it for that, but that’s not the same thing. You’re not buying a Glock to shoot deer

ACD often eventually becomes microcytic as well, as the inflammatory stuff eventually sequesters the iron until you get a relative iron deficiency

Depending on the cause, chronic anemia can be normocytic or even macrocytic, it’s not always microcytic

Should be noted that anemia of chronic disease is separate from chronic blood loss anemia, although IBD can cause both. Anemia of chronic disease is a result of chronic inflammation decreasing your body’s synthesis of RBCs, while blood loss anemia like that seen in chronic bleeding is a result of losing blood

Because teams aren’t going to chat with other teams about why they didn’t hire them

Yeah people don’t realize how much clotting has already been done almost as soon as blood is exposed to open air, so when patients on anticoagulation have a bleed, it definitely looks a lot thinner
