    Assault in the he second degree. Is defined by intentionally trying to harm another with a weapon. This would assume that Sheffler was using his vehicle as a weapon. With the intent to run over the officer. There's about a 99.9 % chance that's not th case.

    2nd degree assault in Kentucky:

    I think, in the unlikely even that some of the charges aren't dropped, that the DA would try to convict based upon section (c). "wantonly" is legally the same as recklessly (which is the term used in Oregon's statute). And the dangerous instrument is the car

    also...you might consider entering a discussion with a lot lower temperature

    I never said that he intentionally tried to harm the police officer. I said that your post was asinine. You are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine.

    I don't really care for Scheffler, but it appears people are wanting to apply their biases to the situation in order to make it far more grandiose than it was. Wouldn't be shocked when the charges are dropped that people double down on said theories.

    Post about nate deleted and all posts quoting it are as well.

    Bmac767777 please refrain from personal insults. I don't care if you don't think it was, or what not. By my discretion that post about nate and the bus was. So accept that. Thank you.

    Hey, if someone wants to be out in heavily manicured nature and hit a few balls while they’re wearing essentially the same clothes that I wear to the office, that’s totally fine. I have nothing against golf as a hobby. I just think it’s hilarious to tout it as a sport compared to football, basketball, baseball, hockey….. or even sports like tennis and volleyball.

    I put it on the same level as bowling.

    n 2024, Jon Rahm is the highest-earning golfer in the world, with an income of around $218 million per year. Rory McIlroy ranks second, earning just over $80 million per year.

    Not bad for a hobby!

    True. Maybe we should start “Rip City 2, The Unreal Reality Series”.
