I wasn't aware we've had a trial? Yes, testimony matters, it absolutely does. But not the testimony the media shows us. Ascribing legitimacy to The Court of Public Opinion is dange…

The police chief gave a brief press conference following the event which was an admitted restatement of the officer's view of what happened, with everything qualified with the word…

No, but I can blame them for going after headlines instead of reporting responsibly; which they do far too often. I can also blame the people that fall for it every time as well, a…

The rush to judgement in situations like this is just sickening. And that goes for both sides. No investigation by anyone has revealed anything about either side. I can't figure ou…

It's easy as long as you're taking everyone's sensitivities into account all the time. My point is that the person that has a problem with what they consider obvious stereotyping t…

Crimes. Plural, not singular. Three strikes laws exist for a reason. Does stealing a wallet justify sitting in jail for life? No. Does getting caught committing your third burglary…
