You don't have a point. You have an opinion. Your opinion is what validates my point. You may be right... he may be a time bomb. The problem is, like so many others with such "strong feelings", you weren't there either. Your opinion actually represent the entire reason why the justice system is in place at all. What breaks your heart? That I'm not mad? That I don't assume I know more than the prosecution, the defense, the jury, or the judge? That I don't assume he's guilty because "I think he did it"? Let that sink in, and let yourself wonder how this country would be if things were run like that. Does the term "mob rule" mean anything to you?
By your statement, you had your mind made up before the original trial even began, like so many others. The media did that. Not the evidence. And if you were in a situation where you had to defend yourself... and this is separate from that case all together... you would want a fair judgement based on the evidence. You wouldn't want a friend of the person's life you felt you were forced to take in the jury box would you?
You certainly wouldn't want to be innocent and in that position... the whole country focusing on you, hating you for something you felt you had to do to preserve your life, blowing up the news about any speeding ticket you got or any dispute you got in? His life is ruined for something that was decided he didn't do by a jury of his peers. Look past your hatred and try to stand outside the box for a minute. Just try it. Of course you can have your opinion. I just ask what I try to do myself... try to look at a topic like this objectively and with no emotion.
