the justice system

From Democracy Now! "I happened to catch on CNN an interview with a man who had been released from death row in Illinois based on DNA evidence, and he told a CNN reporter that he believes that Tookie Williams should be executed, because there was no actual innocence, there was no factual evidence of his innocence."

Okay, in this country, you are innocent until proven guilty. It's not the other way around. You are not supposed to be convicted unless you are guilty beyond reasonable doubt. It's not the other way around. Did you ever have a civics class? The sad thing is that there are undoubtably many Americans who would agree.
