The problem with the average folk is they are susceptibe to this kinda rubish b/c they take what is published on good faith. The internet allows interest groups to spread out right untruth with no accountability. On the flip side, it also allows us to have this forum!

Juries: a jury is made up of your peers. IT is a group of people just like you and I. They are average people, from average neighbourhoods and average lives. They are smart and when the facts are put to them, they can and do discern the truth from the fiction. It is really an amazing system that allows everyday people to be so much a part of justice. Don't get me wrong, lawyers will try to "stack" the jury, but the rules in place from the Courts, largely prevent it. The jurors really are your peers.
