Does the jury use it’s psychic empathy to determine what was in my heart at the time the knife perforated your larynx or do they use the circumstances leading up to the murder to determine if I had intent to kill you or not?
Replying isn’t disengagement. I used the knife as an example because it makes it clear that putting someone in immediate danger with no concern for their safety is a kind of “intent”. If I juggled the knives near you instead would the humorous contrast make the analogy more palatable? Im just an amateur knife juggler, playing with his knives in your personal space after we had an argument, no hostile intent here.

Weirdly gruesome. Disengage.
