... Yeah, that's kinda my point. Doesn't that strike you as a little fucked up?
I agree with your desire for transparency. Let's see what comes out in the days to come. What I don't want to see is an innocent man going through an unjustified trial in order to appease a bunch of people, who don't know what happened, screaming for an indictment regardless of the evidence to support it. Do you believe that there was a conspiracy among them to acquit Wilson? You and I don't know any of the jurors or of any specific reason to believe they would be dishonest. Basically, you want to subject Wilson to a long, stressful trial against his rights as a citizen because you believe, without evidence, that the trial is called for. Give me a break. Where does the problem lie here?
