(Archbold 19-41); "It is both good law and good sense that a man who is attacked may defend himself. It is both good law and good sense that he may do, but only do, what is reasonably necessary." The common law approach as expressed in Palmer v. R and other authorities, is also relevant to...

joe, well ,in a nutshell.....false. there has NOT ,or ever been a withdrawal of an englishmans right to self defense.where these idiots get this from is anyones guess. british law gives the citizen the right to self defense obviously, what it does not give him is the right to chop up, dismember, or ...

joe, no right to protect ones self? i dont know where that came from..i know that recently tony blair and several ministers and lawmakers etc accepted that a private citizen could actually kill a burglar for example ,and not be prosecuted, as long as he could show good reason that he feared for his ...

joe....if you call me an armchair terrorist again......ill have to call you an armchair patriot .......no its unfair i guess ,ive got an advantage havent i? i mean tho i might be filmed every time i go out.... i havent got the f.b.i knocking on my door cos i blew a fart at george bush :lol: ...damn ...

tc askey....why bring me into it? .......that was uncalled for ,and un needed, but not unexpected......if youre the typical republican then no wonder the world is in the mess it is!...........but heres a thought to ponder for joe and whoever, if you think about everything without bias ,and tot up th...

just a question....is it possible that the i.p address(s) mentioned could be the ip address of a local library or internet rooma or watever, which of course everyone has access to? maybe im being a little naive here....the reason being that to me,a few of the identiyies on that list appear to be gen...

so i guess the "guard tower" thing was a bit of an exaggeration at the least? but didnt sidney brinkerhoff confirm their existence? maybe he just took others word for it?

just wondering if any of the members have ever seen the so called "guard towers or watch towers" on bluff springs mt mentioned in the "killer mountains"? surely they couldnt be fabrications?

while myself and joe inhabit quite different ends of the political spectrum,and agree on very little :lol: im in almost complete agreement with his conclusions. the aggravation and harrassment has indeed been a constant feature of this site at least for as long as ive visited(2 years or maybe more) ...

joe , thanks for not answering my question :lol: ok if i strayed from the letter,attacking hrdlicka, didnt the previous poster stray by glorifying him? i tell you what? im pissed off with this,ill leave you to read and post your sanitised b.s...theres no point to this anymore-none at all.....ill lea...

joe, would you prefer an airbrushed,rose coloured portrait ? :lol: im not in business of running anyone down, but hrdlicka was a figure in this conversation,and if some feel he needs gloryfiing well ok.most of all, glorifying or destroying shouldnt be the issue........candid truth surely is the best...

AN ERA OF HEALING REPATRIATION OF NATIVE ARTIFACTS OFFERS CHAI NCE TO CLOSE THE RIFT BETWEEN THE MAKERS AND THE KEEPERS lreburial of 756 Kodiak Island remains in 1991. For years, Larsen Bay Natives had requested their return from the Smithsonian. At the time, Rick Knecht, a Kodiak archaeologist, sug...

gene, with respect kearney first made the point that hrdlicka was a compiler.....he wasnt a forensic pathologist...so why would his verdict been considered definitive in an area he apparently knew little about?..the glowing tribute you have posted may all be true,but i see no mention anywhere of som...

ok novice, no problem, im trying at the moment to find out where i read that halseth had the opinion initially that said skull was of indian origin and the bitter argument that ensued.at present i cant find the reference,which isnt helped by fact recently i threw out a great deal of old material, ne...

novice, im not sure what you meant by "innuendos aimed at you" if its me you are refferring to ,i can assure no innuendos were intended...but never mind. if this issue seems to be upsetting anyone then ill say no more....other than, the simple point is that hrdlickas statement is the rock ...

joe, i understand/understood what you are saying/said but dont accept it,however if as you say they /he always leave themselves some wriggle room, becos they dont know what the next turn of the spade will unearth then........yes you got it...by definition they aint certain. maybe you might suggest t...

novice, kearney makes the same point about about ruths hat in his article written for journal of arizona history some time ago,maybe youve read it....of course maybe the murderer(s) asked him to take it off before they shot him? along of course with his dentures,glasses,which also apparently showed ...

"dr hrdlicka had no doubts.....trust me "(joes quote)
well joe for a guy with no doubts-he sure used the words probabley,probability and maybe an awful lot!
take care

novice, the newspaper articles of course would (and maybe do) appear to be impressive evidence.i think it would be unfair for me to sweep them aside and say something after the fashion of" well of course the papers would follow that line ,wouldnt they? murder is always more exciting than the al...

novice,thanks for your reply, im not sure i agree with the percentages youve allocated to "strong probability" i dont personally think the letter implies a 0.01 level of doubt as your percentages would indicate(100%-99.9%) and im afraid the "level of doubt" involved rapidly multi...

joe, im not trying to be pedantic but,with respect hrdlicka didnt have to be an eyewitness to the event to determine whether they were bullet holes or not.....they either were or they werent...if they were then obviously he was shot...if they werent then plainly the opposite was true. so it follows ...

novice..id be interested to hear your personal opinion on why the authorities ignored the hrdlicka report.....and likewise any other members opinion on this issue
thanks

i answered between your first posting and your edit,andonly read the skull examination part after id replied.its hard to know just how accurate a comparison could be judged from a skull and photos in 1931 maybe "in all probabillty"was as far as he could say, i dont know..... thanks

garry (novice) thanks for the reply and yes ill pm you....as for the hrdlicka letter....i think from how the letter reads there seems plenty of room for doubt . "PROBABLEY met his death by the means of a shot from a gun" well...so at best he wasnt sure? i dont see how that can be read any ...
