"The media have a pretty good hit rate here".
Sounds like a percentage game.....fire a shotgun into the crowd lets see who is wounded approach.
Thankfully the court of public opinion dont get a look in when we move from the pub to the court room. Perhaps the old mythbusters quote "I reject reality and substitute my own" is fitting.
Strike-rate, strike-rate? Are you an American baseball player?
Not interested in anyone else's opinion - just your own? Wonder what the concept of a forum is then.
Perhaps its a case of "I will talk and you will listen"?...LOL
I do enjoy a 'robust' discussion - but it has to be a discussion.
Play nicely....lol
Absolutely not! The quote was a direct reference to your statement "Not interested in what the Law says, or what the Court says in these cases."
The reality is a resounding "Yes" we do have to accept it! The fantasy is we make our own minds up, perhaps in the pub ;).... and go stone/beat/kick the alleged offender to death. So in this situation do you believe that the mob mentality has a higher success rate in getting it "right" over a court system?
Courts don’t find people innocent. They’re found not-guilty. There’s a reason why those words are used.
The criminal legal process is not a quest for the truth.
