ROSE, District Judge,
concurring in result.
While I agree that Appellant’s conviction under K.R.S. § 507.050(1) does not constitute a crime of violence under Begay v. United States, 553 U.S. 137, 128 S.Ct. 1581, 170 L.Ed.2d 490 (2008), and agree that Begay applies retroactively, I do not find that the Appellant diligently pursued his rights or that extraordinary circumstances prevented timely filing of his petition within one year of the Supreme Court’s announcement of Begay. I concur in the majority’s result specifically because the Appellee waived the one-year procedural bar established by the A.E.D.P.A.
