Some questions from Allen Korwin

[Timothy]

Look up jury nullification. 

Jurors can determine The constitutionality of a given charge against the plaintiff regardless of what the judge has to say about it.

The jury is one of the most powerful tools we can use and should use as citizens of United States!

[Solus]

Unfortunately judges have held jurors in contempt for instructing other jurors on Jury Nullification.

There is a group that works to have all jurors be fully informed of their power.

Here is their page.

Then that judge should be removed from the bench and disbarred!

[Solus]

There is some rule somewhere about imparting to fellow jurists knowledge you have pertaining to a particular in a case that the other jurists might not have....don't know what it stems from, but here would be an example.

Say a witness to a shooting, under oath, states what he saw and says he is sure of ever detail.

He says...   I saw the defendant deliberately aim his gun at the deceased, cock he hammer and shoot him multiple times, deliberately cocking the hammer each time.  I vividly remember this in exact detail. 

Well, the weapon use was a Glock 17 and you know it has no hammer to be cocked so you know the witness has perjured himself.

You are forbidden from sharing that knowledge with the other jurors. 

All I can figure is that it is considered as "evidence" an thus must be introduced to the jury by the attorneys and that, somehow, they apply what ever logic they find in it to the knowledge of Jury Nullification.

Judges often refuse to talk about nullification even when the jurors ask.
But the jury has the power. They can refuse to return ANY verdict until he explains it.

Wouldn't you ?
They were quick enough to shut down air travel to Israel for no real reason.
Obama is an anti American muslim influenced marxist who has done everything in his power to hurt America.

Ann Barnhardt is agreeing with you again, Tom.

From her current post:

Q.  How could Obama and the Washington regime be so seemingly inept?
A.  They AREN’T inept.  They WANT what remains of the US to collapse.  They WANT to facilitate the reformation of the Caliphate.  The WANT to create as many crises as possible, because crises and chaos enable them to grab more power.

She also gets into an explanation of some metaphysical topic.  Thread drift, but I had to chuckle at her example....


2.   Let’s talk about Concupiscible and Irascible Appetites, because understanding what they are and how they get perverted explains a lot.

The Concupiscible Appetite is what makes our souls long after things that are pleasant to the senses (like bacon) and avoid those things that are unpleasant to the senses (like Justin Bieber). So, we LOVE bacon, and when we achieve bacon we experience DELIGHT.  When we do not achieve bacon, we experience DESIRE.  Contrariwise, we HATE Justin Bieber*, and when being exposed to Justin Bieber is possible but not accomplished, we experience AVERSION, and when we actually do experience the evil of Bieber we feel sadness and sorrow.  So that’s how the Concupiscible Appetites work.

(* We don’t actually HATE Justin Bieber, and in fact we must pray for that repellant little jerk-wit, because man, it’s not looking good for him if he wraps his Ferrari around a light pole this afternoon.  But you have to admit, the Bacon-Bieber thing was a pretty awesome pedagogical device, huh?)

 Concupiscible Appetites.
I'll be interested in understanding when I manage to get past pronunciation. 

(According to my spell check she spelled it wrong, but I think it's just unhappy with the tense.)

Yep.

The puppet regime haven't been able to topple the nation via economic routes (yet), so I guess they are trying germs and/or the media-fueled panic that is sure to ensue.
