Originally posted by Workingdog As far as I can tell, none of you were there, none of you was an eyewitness to the events. Why does everyone feel the need to be armchair detectives, prosecutors, defense attorneys, etc. in this case. The only information you have to form an opinion is not the evidence, not the facts, but just the drivel you are hearing on Fox, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC and all of the other media outlets with their own agenda... RATINGS. It's been taken out of the hands of the locals now. Let the justice system work.
There is a difference between doing something that interferes with justice, and people who discuss current events at forums. Your post amounts to telling people to shut up.
Nothing said here will make the slightest bit of difference to the workings of the justice system. But if people keep quiet when injustice is suspected, it turns us into mindless boobs ready to accept without question whatever authority tells us. You should be happy this forum has made room for anti-boob conversations.
And of course, if you don't like the topic, you don't have to read or participate do you?
