I'd be more touched if, y'know, I had actually defended anybody. Which I didn't. I never took a stand on his conviction, I never said that he should've killed and gotten away with it, all I said was that, according to the CNN article, the reasons behind his sentencing were ridiculously absurd. Any one of us could face a wrongful conviction and bad sentencing if "well, he didn't look emotional enough" were considered, and yes this means me.

Edit: I'll post a calmer reply when I'm... um... calm. Right now I gotta study. Djusk' a.

what makes everything worse...

... is how AOL/Time Warner distorted the whole crying thing to make it the causual factor in sentencing.

Is the forker an American who did well in civics? I am thinking they don't understand the difference between the vertict and penalty phases of the trial.
