Without getting into the specifics of the controversies we have all seen in the media these past few weeks, the latest complaints about our justice system have me confused.
No system is perfect, but what is it that these internet “experts” want? Should mob rule override Grand Juries when they come back with rulings the mob dislikes? The people in the Grand Jury get to see the ACTUAL evidence in the case, not the interweb hype and media spun tidbits. What about trial decisions? Should the threat of riot and disorder influence our courts?
Between the Ferguson issue and this latest NYC Grand Jury decision, I think people with an agenda are making the false conclusion that it is a trend in racism or prejudice.
If you don’t know how detailed, precise, and meticulous the Grand Jury process is (let alone the legal system overall) then its easy to assume the worst.
