I'm going to go steal a car, and make sure Silvanus sits in jail while I go free. happy.gif
Silvanus2005-06-13 21:35:55
You obviously don't understand. In one situation, you have all innocent people go free, but so do some guilty people. In the other, all guilty people go to jail, and so does some innocent.

Would you rather you go to jail, or a serial killer go free to wander and kill people again?
Richter2005-06-13 21:50:09
Depends.
Sylphas2005-06-13 21:52:22
Hey, I'm liberal, and I agree with that. Damned linear scale. *mutter*
Athana2005-06-13 21:52:46
Jail?...if it was a serial killer you would most likely get the Death Penalty.
Richter2005-06-13 21:56:49
I'm all for not guilty getting off, guilty being punished, and effective juries being chosen. biggrin.gif
Sylphas2005-06-13 22:07:42
My pet peeve is that we're so afraid of punishing the innocent that a death sentence is more like 30 years in prison, after which time we might get around to killing you. I'm all for hanging people behind the courthouse the day they're convicted of murder or rape or something.

I'd prefer an innocent go to jail then a guilty go free. God I hate California and the East coast of USA, we need to saw both of them off. Stupid Liberals.

It's okay. Us blues will take California and the other blue states and form our own country. We'll endorse stem-cell research, outlaw republicans, outlaw religion, legalize gay marriage, and legalize all drugs.

And we'll be the happiest bloody place on earth. Since we'll have two Disney parks. happy.gif (After we ship the hispanics from Florida into the mid-west, anyway). I've no problem letting you all sit in your rockers and in your mountain peaks drinking moon-shine and hating on us god damn hippy faggots. smile.gif

At any rate, I'm very happy with the outcome. Only because the Jury said they believed he was innocent, and they trusted their justice system. Honestly, the mother is the sort of person who will find the squeekiest cart in K-Mart, put her kids in it, and kick the wheel whenever she's out of camera range, hoping it'll fall apart so she can sue.

Whether Jackson did it or not is, honestly, irrelevant. At least, in America. It's the credibility of the person suing.

That said, this is what Republican fat-cats use to get out of their due process. Sorry, but, enough god damn republicans who were FAR from innocent, and obviously so, have gotten off for me to feel bad when a democrat who very well may be innocent (Okay, so Jackson is a bloody freak. Oh well).

Damn, you people are harsh.

I'd rather go free, and let the serial killer go free.

Probably because we're one in the same. biggrin.gif

I'm not wasting the rope. I'd rather make them dig their own damn grave, then pay a couple of immigrants 10 cents an hour to cover that crap back up, and move a cement slab over it.

Wow, and I thought mine would draw comments.

We really need to shift the country to a better scale than simply liberal/conservative. I know lots of people who are socially liberal, but economically conservative, or tons of other combinations, and we all get stuck in badly labelled categories based on whatever we feel most strongly about. I'm a liberal, because I don't mind homosexuals, like the environment, and work at a non-profit, yet I have plenty of conservative views.

I sure wouldn't want Silvanus as one of my jurors if I ever went to court.

I knew it! I'm running for president, damnit. Down with the shrub.
Unknown2005-06-14 02:15:16
Yes, down with the linear political spectrum.
Oh, and castrate MJ. tongue.gif

As for the whole serial murderer issue; let the innocent man get a gun, and shoot the guilty one. If it is such a sure thing then it's just a matter of time.
Never shall the innocent blood be shed, yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river. The three shall spread their blackened wings and be the vengeful striking hammer of God.

Fain, wanna be my VP? Whenever the Senate gets some wierd split (Damn religious lefters!), you can just look at the Republicans and go, "Request denied."
