The real issue with the trial by jury, is that the jurors are allowed
to hear only what the Judge wants them to hear... Now there are lies
of commission and lies of omission, and juries are constantly fed more
lies by omission than what comes out of the mouths of the liars on the
stand... Look, I'm a big boy and since the day I saw my first argument
in the recess yard I know that when there is an argument there are
liars... So, when I'm a juror let both sides drag in everyone they want
and tell the story any way they want, and I'll sift through the chaff
for the kernals of wheat... I'm hopefully waiting for the day that a
jury renders a verdict, is turned loose, and when they find out how
much was kept from them by the Judge, which would have reversed their
verdict, file a complaint with the Chief Justice of that state...
