    Maybe a "fair" trail should mean fair for all - victim and accused - not just the accused. But I get the impression fair trial only refers to the accused.

    If the judge doesn't punish him with a harsh sentence, prisoners will deal with him when he is inside.
    Pedophiles and child rapists get bashed inside here in Australia it is widely known, and I know a guy who works in the prison system who confirmed this.
    same happens to Greece with Pedophiles and child rapists in Greek jails..

    And that is the way it should be.

    No it's not supposed to be that way and anyone who advocates it is sick in the head. The sentence is prison - not to be raped and beaten. Anyone who advocates this isn't really human in my mind.

    Our prisons should put a stop to it and I personally feel there should be a giant class action lawsuit against them.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Fair does apply to both. The alleged victim is given their chance to tell their side of the evidence and bring to trial all information in a fair way to both sides. And the alleged perpetrator is allowed to give his side if he chooses and bring evidence to that effect. It is NOT fair to have the alleged victim give their side, but not give the alleged perpetrator their turn.

    Note the words alleged. Innocent until proven guilty. That is fair to all involved. There are plenty of trials that show the alleged victim was in fact not that (the Duke LAX case comes to mind very quickly in what would have been an horrendous crime if it had actually happened. A lot of jumping to conclusions and the accusseds' lives were never the same). There is also plenty of DNA stuff going on now that is releasing wrongly convicted people that apparently did not have the fairest of trials if you conclude that convicting an innocent person is not fair. Ruben "Hurricane" Carter is another classic example of where the alleged perpetrator was not given a fair trial.

    Believe me, I am no ACLU proponent. But, our jury/trial system is fair to all parties involved. Now, does it always result in the "correct" outcome? I think we'd all agree no. But, until the day Orwell's vision comes true, I think we all realize that's for the best.

    So, let's revel in our system of justice and hope everyone gets what they deserve.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I'm just voicing an opinion. I don't know how anyone could advocate...even wish for...rape and violence against another person. In my opinion, if you do that, you are sick in head.

    I don't like calling people names (and really that's not what I'm doing here), but I'm not going to swallow my voice when I see something that is just plain wrong and undefendable.

    By the way, I can now add hypocrite to the labels as well since you did exactly what you took offense that I was doing. Of course, that's consistent with your revenge/retribution violence and rape stance so I can't say you're not consistent.

    i thought when you post "who advocates it is sick in the head" you was talking about members post in the thread thats why i said that you made a mistake calling names.
    i post what i believe about this issue,but in general i dont like to judge or do personal attacks in the forum..
    im ok to judge,comment at an opinion..i believe that someone says that we dont need fair trials ,this opinion is wrong,but im not saying that the person said it is bad,or sick..etc

  • I'd tend to agree, in a general sense, with Know1, that anyone who thinks violence against anyone/thing has some personal/mental issues of their own.

    know1 and i don't agree sometimes but i agree with him/her and PD as well in this case.

    i believe they call people who find pleasure in wishing violence on others "sociopaths"...
