  Re: Steve Lane
 
(...) Wow, that burst my bubble! Here I thought he was this extraordinarily clever guy capable of sifting through incredibly long and complex threads and coming up with retorts, rejoinders, and references at lightning speed! (That would also explain (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) It doesn't require apriori knowledge, just willingness to examine the law, and decide if it's a just law or not. (...) Defacto you are correct, in most cases this is what happens. Dejure you are wrong, common law (and case law if you can find (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) <snip> Richard I totally agree with you here but would just like to point out that Bruce MIGHT be responding to Tom S. who I think is shading a bit more towards planting evidence than you. But you're doing great so don't let me stop you! :-) (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Steve Lane
 
Remember, Scott is in the UK, so he probably pays by the minute, unless Amuricans, who mostly have flatfee. In that case, posting them all, then going on later to authorize via email all at once saves money for Lego. Me, I post all at once from time (...)

  Re: National vote on handguns?
 
(...) You mentioned a 40% increase in crimes using firearms, after the British parliament banned them. Is it not possible such increase had been bigger, instead of smaller, in the event of *no restrictions at all*? Then, you claim only law abiding (...)

  Re: Factory Pictures Finally
 
(...) It appears to me that the computer network is experiencing some problems today. If you did not receive my post about this post, then it must have been lost in Lugnet. I have had a change of heart and believe that you should simply try to find (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) Nope. The Founder Fathers thought they could trust the average venireman to judge both facts and law, no complicated understanding was supposed to be needed -- and if it were, perhaps it was not a very good law such that people could (...)

  Re: Factory Pictures Finally
 
(...) Jesse, All of the factories that I have worked at, with the exception of the local refinery, have NOT had smokestacks. A factory is a place of manufacturing is it not? Not all manufacturing process require a smokestack. Your tone still seems (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) Actually, that last bit there riles me up some. Mostly because this sort of started (at least on my end of it) because I did not sufficiently qualify the scenarios I made up. I really never stated anything to the effect that I would come out (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Factory Pictures Finally
 
(...) I know what you are saying to me and I saw the designs of your factory but if you wish to retain the same shape (because not all factories are shaped the same) and want to make it more like a factory, at least add some of those yellow and (...)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) Doesn't this demand that each member of the jury be conversant with the (possibly very obscure) laws? How can one's "peers" be expected at any time, for instance, to be trusted to interpret the particulars of laws they might never previously (...)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) Well I hear it usually is up to the jury to decide who the foreman is using whatever mechanism they decide on, I understand being foreman is perceived as being a bit more work, so I have heard that people will happily go along with it if one (...)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) That's not my problem ;-) (...) There'd be no need - if I killed someone in a fistfight, it would be equal force as defense. And if I killed them, they couldn't argue about who started it. Not that I'd get involved in a fistfight, I've pretty (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

I'm sure that 75% of us would agree that stealing and (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) That's funny larry. I do the same thing. Most of my coworkers have always wanted schemes to get out of jury duty...but I always thought that was easy and irresponsible. I've always answered everything neutrally so that I would stay. (...) How (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

And yes, the constant statement is "I'm going to come out blazing no matter what the circumstances are, and I'll fake evidence and even execute people to cover my (...)
