Even then, it’s not some local industry. It’s a thing that goes to China and back because of how labor intensive it is to cut it all up.
And that’s still skipping past that no other state has an official appetizer. Or that we’ve got multiple appetizers that are legitimately Kline of unique to here.

Nobody cares and nobody will… because the law was beyond stupid. Now I can walk into any Cumberland Farms and grab a drink and a straw and that’s that.

The most simple and common scenario would be assuming he was just the guest of the tenet, not some bizarre scenario you've concocted.

I don’t think those numbers square up either, but I was definitely off.
For Longfin / Shortfin it looks like RI catches closer to 62% of the national total.
CA might fish a lot of market squid but it’s not going into Calamari.

Longfin: In 2021, commercial landings totaled 23.4 million pounds, and were valued at $33.4 million, according to the NOAA Fisheries commercial fishing landings database.
Shortfin: In 2021, commercial landings of shortfin squid totaled 39 million pounds, and were valued at $19.6 million according to the NOAA Fisheries commercial fishing landings database.

Even if RI was among the states and countries where there is some degree of duty to retreat even in cases of a home invasion but of course there actually has to be a safe route of retreat which I'm guessing was not the case here.

If they’re encouraging it, I guess that’s ok? I dunno.

I've been to a few places that have windows in the capes they put on you so you can play on your phone while they cut your hair. It does seem very rude but small businesses might not have much of a choice.

No, he wasn't. He was an authorized guest of the person on the lease and legally there is no distinction between a guest living there or the person on the lease when it comes to most legal matters such as home defense or domestic violence.
Why are you determined to find fault with a guy who was subject to an illegal eviction and breaking and entering from an armed intruder?

The problem is: that isn’t true. Rhode Island accounts for 54% of squid harvested…..in the northeast United States. The ProJo ram with it because it’s the largest seafood haul from here by a large amount but California still exists.

I get that it’s widely available, but Point Judith is the home of like 98% of calamari squid caught on the US. It’s also grown a lot in popularity because it was a cheap and fancy protein that could be marked way up.

they would. there's basically no way you're skating on tbe gun charge no matter how legitimate whatever else you did was.
edited to add: if the facts as presented are true it was still an intruder, even if she owned the place. kicking in the door armed with goons isn't her right even if the person in there wasnt the legal tenant.
