Robert Gershman, who represented Nathan Walker, asked the jurors to ignore morality, ignore the “hysteria” and ignore emotion. “No matter how morally reprehensible you believe the situation was, that plays no role.

If morality plays no role in our laws, then...what DOES? The preferences of liberals?

When I imagine Gershman saying the above, I picture him decked out in red, with horns, a tail and forked tongue.

This story is the most upsetting I've seen in a while. The evil (whoops, there's that morality thing again) pervading our society leaves me speechless.
