The jury system is null and void. [2 reasons]

Reason number 1

Decades ago it began that jurors would no longer remember that they not only have the right to cast their guilty or not guilty votes based on whether they thought the accused actually committed the offense but also on the basis of whether they felt the offense should be illegal in the first place. In other words, and for an example, a jurors' original duty in the event he/she felt
A.)the accused did indeed commit the offense for which he is being tried, and
B.)the that offense should not even be an illegal one,
was to vote NOT GUILTY, in such a case.

How many jurors even know they still have this right til this day?



Reason number 2

But then now we have another atrocity being commited against the jury system which in my opinion renders it completely dead and incapable of affecting any amount of true justice.
That being DA's recent moves to withhold showing jurors certain picture (or video too, I suppose) evidence that have been deemed (by God, I imagine) to be "too disturbing" for them to handle. (Be ye careful, my little children, what ye little eyes may see)
The words "Too Disturbing" seem to have a certain magical quality (a dazzling hipnotizing affect) to them when used together and in certain lights. I say this because there was a recent case where a DA really made such determinations on picture evidence, and where jurors seem to have sat back and allowed the evidence to be withheld from them. Weak complacent dead-head punch-drunk dizzy motherfuckers, we're becoming. We'll eat anything the system gives us. Just as long as we don't have to work too hard for anything.

It's amazing that not only have we allowed censors to "clean up" the stories we see on tv or web, but also that we are now allowing, in the most disgusting and degrading manner, censors to function in the courtroom.

All ye say I, if ye think the Jury System is pretty much null and void these days.
