DepositFiles seems to have become about a thousand times slower and harder to use than it ever was before. But thanks, anyway.

If it's not over 4.86 MB for most file types, or 6.44 MB for .wmv files, you should be able to attatch it/them to a post/reply here by using the "advanced" reply option (by clicking on the +Reply to Thread link or the "Go Advanced" link), then clicking on the "Manage Attachments" button (below...

That's because the link is broken. If you remove the space between "http://www.youtube.com/" and "watch?v=MwJKA9WF32o", instead of the error message you got, you will get this message: Since that's the real reason videos get removed from Youtuibe, either due to a reported copyright violation...

Despite the fact that the links were "broken"? Obviously more powerful magic is called for...

Shades of OJ simpson. Judge more than doubles Casey Anthony's bill to over $217,000 http://www.cnn.com/2011/09/23/justice/florida-casey-anthony-costs/index.html?eref=rss_crime Although there obviously are technical differences, the fact that both have been deemed by the courts, perhaps...

I've read this before and I'm fully convinced it's nothing but the product of an overactive imagination. Not appearing to be exactly anorexic, the only "bulge" I've seen "in his pants" in that scene appears to be nothing more than his gut. But it makes a good story for some, apparently...

There are none so blind as those who will not see At least a couple of jurors have publicly spoken, explaining their "reasoning" in the acquittals, from which it's clear that they don't understand the meaning of reasonable doubt, the same ignorance which you have displayed here in supporting...

There wasn't really a legal "loophole" here per se, but the defense contrived a "loophole" for the jury to save them the "trouble" of actually deliberating, and they appear to have been all too glad to take the easy way out which that afforded them.

It depends on what you mean by "it's." If by "it's" you're referring to the verdict arrived at by the jury, more accurately "it's" "all about" what this particular jury believed was proven, not necessarily what was proven. So in that sense, you couldn't be more wrong, as the verdict in any...

Okay (I think). But the reality is that one isn't likely to find a potential juror (or person) anywhere, professional or otherwise, without biases and I'm not sure one is better off merely guessing at the biases of a "random" jury. But I can imagine a truly innocent person possibly benefiting by...

I'm afraid I don't know what feminism has to do with it. Care to elaborate?

I hafta agree. And if the only alternative to people such as those comprising the jury in this case is professional jurors, yes, I'm strongly inclined to agree that it would be at least the lesser of evils. Personally I'm inclined to think that this particular jury was largely indifferent, if...

Comparing the two cases makes little sense unless you can establish an important relevance of that comparison. I know nothing of that case, therefore I can't comment on the facts of it. However, all that matters is the facts of each case taken individually. But if you want to simply pull cases...

So a feeble-minded panel of jurors has decided, at least one of whom has apparently already expressed regret over that decision. (And how do you like that Kasey Kool-Aid?)

While I agree that creating a "media circus" out of a serious trial probably doesn't help, in this case there was more than enough credible evidence to support a murder conviction. In fact, if anything, I think the media attention only contributed to making a conviction less likely, as it tended...
