HMMMMM I wonder if there might have been some ulterior motives to these laws?? What state was this? The article doesn't mention.

Noam Chomsky posted:explain why ironic Few things come to mind. 1) It's basically a mirror of Jim Crow juries in Southern states, where it didn't matter what the defense was able to prove the person was guilty for being black. 2) Similar tactic to what sovcits have urged before. 3) Juries decide matters of fact, not matters of law. 4) The moment you start mentioning the words "jury nullification" the judge is going to slam their gavel down halfway through it and throw not only you but potentially everyone else in the room out of the jury selection process. Primarily the irony I find is with #2. But I've been involved in enough court hearings that I'd see red if it happened to a client I was working with.

citybeatnik posted:http://www.vox.com/2016/5/2/11538752/jury-nullification-paul-butler I don't see why this is a good problem. I thought it was an interesting article. IIRC juries in Washington state have done it at least once if not more on marijuana prosecutions by the feds. Jury nullification is perfectly legal. As the article points out, the Supreme Court ruled it legal in a decision but also said the judge is under no obligation to tell the jury about it. although a lot of what I know about it other than this article stems from an episode of How to Get Away with Murder, where a law student used a strategically placed brochure about jury nullification to engineer a mistrial.

Having Juries being acutely aware of jury nullification would be a loving horrific turn of events for the legal system in general. In some areas you're not even allowed to bring it up. Its that shitastic of a idea.

If they're so worried about what happens to their young child in a public restroom, they should wait inside the restroom with them. Or, at the very least, wait outside. The scenarios they're painting sound like these people just send their 4 year old off to the restroom while they continue browsing DVDs at Target. It's almost as if they're not arguing in good faith!

I never thought I would see the person who is more punchable than Ted Cruz, but somehow we found him. Maybe that's why Ted took the time out to "debate" with this dude, it was his moment to be in a photo with someone more repulsive than he is.

It's true. Also my household is currently responsible for neighborhood watches in most of the city. Some people don't like it, but I've got enough guns to kill everyone in town, so we mostly just give each other the stink eye at the post office.

Oh hey, this popped up in my local Iowa newsfeed: someone's making a deck of women-themed playing cards.quote:Donald Trump says the only card Hillary Clinton has is the woman's card. Hillary Clinton says: "Deal me in!" I thought the brother Zach seemed familiar, and that's because he was the guy who gave a short speech to the Iowa House of Representatives 5 years ago about his lesbian parents.

Just a reminder because it was discussed in the last page about how terrible the WHCD is and CNN is. They failed to cut coverage of the dinner last year when the Baltimore riots broke out. http://reason.com/blog/2015/04/26/cnn-wont-cut-away-from-white-house-corre So yes, the entire event is a public display of masturbation and I really appreciate that Joe McHale and Larry Wilmore really want after the media.
