But the key to living in a civil society is that we don't become vigilantes with no courts. One can armchair quarterback the outcome of both trials, but we have courts for a reason. It isn't to agree with the outcome of the jury, we have courts so we don't end up like ISIS or Hitler or Stalin.
Even with Chauvin and Floyd. The video for the sane was a slam dunk. But even with that, even Chauvin had the right to a lawyer and a trial.
If there is anyone I hate in media the most it has long since been Nancy Grace. It isn't that media should not report on the accused, but in that she treated the process as a Jerry Springer show.
Sounds like you plan to contribute to his defense fund.
Fuck no.
It certainly looks like a slam dunk case in this case. She vanished, he ran. Not a good look at all for him. My bet is the guy committed suicide. He had no were to go, nowhere to run. If he is still alive I would be surprised.
I thought from the start OJ did it. I also thought from the start that Casey Anthony did it. But my issue isn't odds, but process. It is ok to hate the nature of the charge. It is not ok under any circumstances to skip due process.
Again, with Chauvin, any sane person can watch that video of him with his knee on Floyd's neck and know that was murder. Chauvin deserves every year he gets. I am merely saying you cant nor should not skip the process of the court.
Nancy Grace is a failed lawyer and a media hack. And she is now a pundit on Farts Noise.
