ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — A New Mexico man was arrested after allegedly shooting and killing his cousin during an argument over whose plate of green chile enchiladas was hotter.

Ervin Joaquin Gutierrez, 22, was charged with an open count of murder in the Aug. 27 killing of 25-year-old Nathaniel Cavazos.

    So there are 2 victims? Or no victims? I think i get your point but someone did die though.

    • one dead victim, perp is alive and in custody
    • They are cousins
    • perpSays: they were drinking all day
    • perpSays: victim started a fight over who's enchilada was spicier (enchiladas were made from same batch so they couldnt be differently spicy)
    • perpSays: victim punches perp (perp probably has defensive wounds or some other indicia)
    • perp shoots victim
    • perpSays: victim has threatened his life before (this is after the fact to a presumably familial witness)

    ∴

    viable self-defense case? U decide

    This is a lie by omission.

    After the fistfight ended and Cavazos began walking away, Gutierrez allegedly drew a handgun and confronted him, shouting, "We're family! We're family! How could you do this to me?" before opening fire, according to the witness statement in the affidavit.

    Did the victim have a gun? Was there a reason the perp didnt just walk away?

    I see a lot of "this is a good reason to shoot someone because they made me angry" and not a lot of "I feared for my life and killing someone was the only thing I could do to prevent it" in your list.

    Did the victim have a gun?

    Investigators noted that a handgun belonging to Cavazos was later recovered roughly 10 yards from his body, though witnesses stated he did not have it drawn during the shooting.

    Was there a reason the perp didnt just walk away?

    A witness, who identified himself as a cousin to both men, told investigators that the group had spent the afternoon drinking alcohol and cooking green chile enchiladas.

    Alcohol and machismo.

    So still the former rather than the latter.

    The dispute escalated outside the apartment, leading to a physical fight in which Cavazos punched Gutierrez, leaving him bleeding, the witness reported.

    After the fistfight ended and Cavazos began walking away, Gutierrez allegedly drew a handgun and confronted him, shouting, "We're family! We're family! How could you do this to me?" before opening fire, according to the witness statement in the affidavit.

    Use the slur and own being a shithead or shut up. "Regarded" is as pathetic as maga trying to dogwhistle "fuck joe biden" with "let's go brandon"

    That's not at all what the article you linked claims. The 'mixed feelings' had to do with using the terms being used performatively instead of actually putting in the work to create inclusive spaces.

    When an expert or organisation got it [the use of neurodiverse and neurodivergent] wrong, especially one claiming to be inclusive, it could be seen as a “red flag”. Some participants thought this was a sign that they used fashionable inclusive language while failing to change exclusionary practices.

    Using an ableist slur but pussyfooting around it by swapping out the 't'.

    What a little bitch. Commit to being a shithead or don't.


    Edit: Since there's confusion: this is a common spelling of the word "retarded" to get around filters. They just used it here, where there is no filter, because they wanted to use a slur but know it's looked down upon to use slurs.
