Sure it could. And the next one could be one that ‘they’ set up with a camera and a witness would just happened to be strolling by.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the John Cage defense?

An esoteric joke, which I took to mean: A prosecutorial case of meaningless random noise, amounting to, in the end, silence. See below:


.John Cage Jr. (September 5, 1912 – August 12, 1992) was an American composer, music theorist, writer, and artist. A pioneer of indeterminacy in music, electroacoustic music, and non-standard use of musical instruments, Cage was one of the leading figures of the post-war avant-garde.

Cage is perhaps best known for his 1952 composition 4′33″, which is performed in the absence of deliberate sound; musicians who present the work do nothing aside from being present for the duration specified by the title. The content of the composition is not "four minutes and 33 seconds of silence," as is sometimes assumed, but rather the sounds of the environment heard by the audience during performance.[7][8] The work's challenge to assumed definitions about musicianship and musical experience made it a popular and controversial topic both in musicology and the broader aesthetics of art and performance. Cage was also a pioneer of the prepared piano (a piano with its sound altered by objects placed between or on its strings or hammers), for which he wrote numerous dance-related works and a few concert pieces. The best known of these is Sonatas and Interludes (1946–48).

[9] Through his studies of Indian philosophy and Zen Buddhism in the late 1940s, Cage came to the idea of aleatoric or chance-controlled music, which he started composing in 1951.[10] The I Ching, an ancient Chinese classic text on changing events, became Cage's standard composition tool for the rest of his life. In a 1957 lecture, Experimental Music, he described music as "a purposeless play" which is "an affirmation of life – not an attempt to bring order out of chaos nor to suggest improvements in creation, but simply a way of waking up to the very life we're living".[11]

With any luck at all, any riots will take place in the gay district of South Beach, so at least we have a bumper crop of interior designers to refurbish the place after the flames go out!/s

Trey Faulk of Fort Meade holds a sign outside of Seminole's criminal courthouse Friday as jurors deliberated in the George Zimmerman murder trial.

Artwork and a T-shirt express the feelings of some people gathered at the Goldsboro Welcome Center to wait for the verdict in the George Zimmerman trial.

In the Zimmerman trial, MoM had presented the jury with 4 minutes of silence, the amount of time that whereabouts were unaccounted for.

He did that? Oh, that's great. Sometimes no talk is the most powerful talk.

“Frankly I actually believe the tradmark mom probably believes St Trayvon was a good lad”

She barely knew him. She didn’t raise him after the age of 3.
She’s in it for the money she can make off his death. The race baiters put every bit of this in her head. The “mother” that should have been called was the stepmother that raised him. 10 to one says she was not called because she told the cops she could not recognize his voice. So like I said the women you saw glaring at everyone in the court room didn’t know him. She knew she gave birth to him but as far as being the one that raised him, absolutely not. Sure with MoM had brought this up and also had called the stepmother to the stand.
