“If you want to see how tragically misguided and unconstitutional that extremely liberal anti-gun state’s LEOs and judicial authorities have become, click HERE.”

Ultimately it all boils down to the juries, if these idiots on these juries would just say NO and not convict in cases like this the problem would quickly be solved. Unfortunately we get the government that we deserve (as a general population, not individually) so I don’t expect things to change unless and until the general population changes. It is interesting that in the black community there are more and more that are refusing to convict fellow blacks for any crime. Blacks have seen the injustices of the legal system for years now and are starting to revolt, how long before whites/Asians/Latinos follow suit?

Unfortunately this sort of thinking might be 'countered' by the government by selecting people not of that "race" for people they [really] wish to convict; I believe that jury-selection has been corrupted for some time, and such manipulations seem to be the next logical step.

The Aitken case is not unique in that the jury should have refused to convict; but there is something else they could have done -- when the judge refused to allow them access to the [full] law that he was accused of breaking they had more than enough to, individually & as a group, charge the judge with Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law. (14th Amendment guarantees due process; as does the 5th.)

Furthermore, it can be argued that the LEOs, prosecution and judge all are guilty of Conspiracy Against Rights regarding the 2nd Amendment.
