Our system is imperfect, but it beats the heck out of the alternatives. The legal system provides a fair process if not always a fair outcome - far better than solving disputes by picking up sticks and AK47s
there lies the problem.. the 'system' is more imperfect, than perfect. and the common man has lost all hope in the ability of the justice system, on all levels, to provide a "fair process". and as far as "not always a fair outcome", thats a joke. OJ goes free, Jayson Williams essentially gets off, and a woman gets 10 million dollars for spilling coffee on herself??
jurors are held to a confusing mess of legal terms and judicial ramblings, that its almost impossible for them to decifer what matters.. THE EVIDENCE..
i am sure pickard is just a regular guy, i got no probs with him.. but the american judicial system, IT SUCKS..
