"If someone protesting outside a soldier's funeral were murdered, and I was on the jury, I would, under no circumstances, vote to convict. "

How old are you? I do wish you would say 18 or so.

You don't understand how this country works do you?

I guess there is no justice with people like you on juries.

I'm sure it is merely that you can't control your emotions with this subject. That will come with age and when you get over being an idealist.

I'm in my 20's.

I'm merely stating a fact. If some moron outside a funeral celebrating the death of a solider was killed by a distraught relative or some other patriot, I would never vote to convict, regardless of what was argued as a defense.

Jury Nullification, after a fashion.

My basic position is that someone doing something along those lines deserves to die.
