I sometimes wonder if this is nothing more than the misguidedness and the wickedness of my own heart. I wonder other times if God wires some of us in such a way so that fair discourse might then be provided, so that honest and unbiased, due process is ultimately more likely to be carried out. Perhaps it is all necessary for variance of perception, for mindful debate: that the heart is meant to create a bit of bias on certain issues; as between one another, they weigh and balance. For not all hearts are the same.","author":"Criss Jami","tags":["argument","bias","compassion","court","debate","discerning","discourse","discussion","empathy","evil","god","good","heart","immorality","injustice","judgment","justice","love","mercy","misguided","morality","opinions","perception","perspectives","problems","solutions","sympathy","trial","truth","variance","wicked"],"id":58650,"author_id":"Criss+Jami"},{"text":"People that have a police car behind them pulling them over should put on their hazard lights and continue slowly driving to the nearest densely populated public place, such as a supermarket or shopping center. Pull over outside the busy entrance and start your video camera. Inform the police officer that you are video recording and very slowly give the requested documentation. Exercise your legal right to silence while the many independent witnesses video record the unexpected stop that rudely interrupts your day. If you are given a ticket, choose to go to court. It will give you time to obtain independent legal advice about the allegation.","author":"Steven Magee","tags":["about","advice","allegation","allegations","behind","busy","camera","car","center","choose","continue","court","day","dense","densely","documentation","driving","entrance","excercise","give","given","hazard","independent","inform","interrupts","legal","lights","mall","many","nearest","obtain","outside","people","place","police","police-brutality","police-corruption","police-officer","police-state","policeman","policemen","populated","population","public","pull","pulling","record","recording","requested","right","rude","rudely","shopping","silence","slowly","start","stop","supermarket","ticket","time","unexpected","very","video","while","witnesses"],"id":59315,"author_id":"Steven+Magee"},{"text":"Clarence Darrow, one of history's greatest lawyers, once noted 'There is no such thing as justice, in or out of court.' Perhaps because justice is a flawed concept that ultimately comes down to the decision of twelve people. People with their own experiences, prejudices, feelings about what defines right and wrong. Which is why, when the system fails us, we must go out and seek our own justice.","author":"Emily Thorne","tags":["court","experiences","feelings","justice","prejudices","revenge","revenge-tv-series"],"id":76610,"author_id":"Emily+Thorne"},{"text":"When in court, the primary role of lawyers is not to prove or disprove innocence; unbeknown to almost all lawyers and their clients, it is to save the court time.","author":"Mokokoma Mokhonoana","tags":["adage","adages","advocate","advocates","aphorism","aphorisms","axiom","axioms","client","clients","court","court-of-law","courts","deep","defendant","defendants","dictum","dictums","disprove","disproved","disproving","epigram","epigrams","gnome","gnomes","guilt","guilty","guilty-until-proven-innocent","humor","humour","innocence","innocent","innocent-until-proven-guilty","insightful","judge","judges","jury","law","lawyer","lawyers","made-me-think","make-you-think","maxim","maxims","plaintiff","plaintiffs","presumption-of-guilt","profound","prosecute","prosecutor","prosecutors","prove","proved","proven","proverb","proverbs","proving","provoke-thought","quotation","quotations","quote","quotes","role","roles","satire","satirical","save","save-time","saying","sayings","the-law","thought-provoking","thoughtful","time","waste-of-time","waste-time"],"id":77808,"author_id":"Mokokoma+Mokhonoana"},{"text":"And what hypocrisy it is on the part of our Government to have the Bible in our courts of law for the culprit to take his oath upon and then be tried for the very crimes which the Bible itself sanctions.","author":"Joseph Lewis","tags":["atheism","atheist","court","law"],"id":101872,"author_id":"Joseph+Lewis"},{"text":"One of the most common and most dangerous misbeliefs is that it is impossible for someone to be stupid just because they are a doctor or a lawyer.","author":"Mokokoma Mokhonoana","tags":["aphorism","aphorisms","aphorist","aphorists","court","court-of-law","doctor","doctors","education","fool","foolish","funny","hilarious","humor","humorous","humour","idiot","joke","jokes","judge","law","lawyer","lawyers","medicine","misbelief","misbeliefs","satire","stupid"],"id":106286,"author_id":"Mokokoma+Mokhonoana"},{"text":"For breakfast to be called ‘in bed’ instead of ‘on top of a bed,’ the house in which it is about to be eaten has to have at least two rooms (excluding the kitchen); (at least) three, if it has a bathroom.","author":"Mokokoma Mokhonoana","tags":["anniversary","ate","b-b","bathroom","bathrooms","bed-and-breakfast","breakfast","breakfast-in-bed","breakfasted","breakfasts","chase","court","courtship","eat","eaten","food","hit-on","hitting-on","house","houses","kitchen","kitchens","marriage","marriages","meal","meals","morning","nutrition","poor","poverty","pursue","restroom","restrooms","romance","romantic","room","rooms","toilet","toilets","wedding","weddings","woo"],"id":115200,"author_id":"Mokokoma+Mokhonoana"},{"text":"Our government says people must not take law in their own hands, But has given the law in the hands of people who in power.
