Reply #27: The "facts" you mention are charges to be decided in court. We operate under rule of law.

I am an American citizen and I take the responsibility of citizenship very seriously. Read the Bill of Rights before attacking citizens who choose to abide by the rule of law.

If I decide before presentation of evidence from the accuser and accused I would not be able to serve on on jury to decide guilt or innocence. If you have already determined his guilt you would have to state that in court and would be unlikely to be able to serve on a jury to determine guilt or innocence.

I do not automatically believe statements posted in media nor do I automatically believe statements made by law enforcement personnel. If I and everyone else did so, we would be able to simply watch television and declare justice is done based upon what is reported by media as fact or we could simply have jurors read police reports and then decide guilt or innocence.

I am also an unapologetic believer in the statements of Jesus Christ as reported in the Four Gospels of the new Testament. I find that by reading these statements about making judgement and those about the two commandments that supercede all others, I am able to deal with my anger about crime and evil events and occurences or attempts of evil actions in the world, and focus on taking action to prevent the same.

I recommend these to you because I believe that if people can move beyond getting sick to their stomachs over crime and attempted crime, we can elimate most crime.

In any case I intend to continue to adhere to the Bill of Rights and the statements of Jesus Christ on Crime and Love, no matter how much you may choose to verbally attack me.
