Conviction By Jury Intimidation?

I am old enough to remember when lynch mobs were wrong.

But, OK.

Fine.

Mob justice?

OK.

I want to remind y'all that 'vendetta' is an Italian word.

That Appalachia's "feuds" descend from Scotland's version of vendetta.

But, go right ahead and kick that hornet's nest.

Threaten that jury into voting to convict someone who's innocent of the charges.

When you prove that the cops and the courts don't work, where are we?

Lemme be more specific about "we".

We the majority.

You know, folks who outnumber you by a lot?

We who actually know a bit about this shit you're stirring up?

Wanna bet the average deer hunter can get packed up and relocated before you even hear the shot that gets the person you're confused just collapsed?

You're very vocal and easy to find when you're doing your terror routine and seem oblivious to the idea that someone else might abandon the law as fully as you have.

Go ahead.  Flick the switch to "kill motherfucking everyone" from "obey the law".

Western Civ is good at this.  The American Indian is the only group that can answer, "what happens when?"  Victoria's compassion no longer lives in the heart of Western Civ, so don't count on there being Liberal Reservations.

Nazi's and Commies will go, "HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT ESCALATED FAST!"

We'll feel guilty afterwards, but you won't be here for it.

Will you heed the warning?

  1. Yet that's what happened with the Derek Chauvin trial, and what is being set up for the Aubrey 'murder' trial.
