So What?? (Re: Arbery case - Jury says guilty) |

Not because these guys were convicted but because the faith in our jury system is only deemed satisfactory when the rabble-rousers get the result they want. When Rittenhouse was acquitted, there was rioting and claims of a racist justice system by the New York Times. But now that Arbery’s killers were convicted, everything’s cool.Our system of justice isn’t supposed to be swayed by mob rule - juries must decide the way we want them to or else we’ll burn down your city. That’s a bullshit way to live. Either you have faith in the system or you don’t - don’t celebrate when a verdict goes your way and burn and loot when it doesn’t. This is a society of laws that apply to everyone. Without exception. |
