Textblock! I've missed you!

[text] neargenius February 23 2011, 17:22:47 UTC

Near.

I guess you're both.

[voice] he_is_wild February 23 2011, 18:38:25 UTC

So, still trying to capture Kira, I see.

[text forever] neargenius February 23 2011, 18:42:21 UTC

Kira is what is important. So, yes.

You can punish people for what they've done here within the confines of the law that is readily available to be read, understood, and taken into consideration. It poses a problem when people don't understand this place, its culture, and what it means to commit a crime.

So there are exceptions. Or there should be, in your mind.

proxysearch February 23 2011, 17:57:04 UTC

I think that it would be beneficial to have it explained to people. Or that there should be a way to educate those who don't understand this time period or the culture. A crime to us may not be the same to them.

Murder?

A crime here would warrant a more serious review, I should think. Prosecutor Edgeworth has said it would be impossibly unfair to hold people to their crimes back home, through the justice system here.

Nonetheless, having a known history of criminal activity does lend a bias to how people will be perceived. Especially if an individual does not voice remorse for having done something wrong.

Do you believe this island is a prison for criminals?

So you also believe in a bias. The people who have admitted to things should be watched. But if it's unfair to hold people to their crimes, should we allow our judgment to be so clouded?

Are you a criminal?

I believe that a stronger administrative surveillance, preventative measures, would reduce the potential for repeat offenses, certainly...

Are you?

neargenius February 23 2011, 19:01:26 UTC

Do you have ideas that are more specific than that, or are those your only ideas?

You answer first, unless you can't.

It's unfair to suggest that there aren't a great deal of villains more deserving of suspicion and attention than those that have revealed themselves. The Valentine's Day killer is an example of that. An unknown murderer is far more dangerous than one that has admitted his crimes.

text neargenius February 23 2011, 18:07:38 UTC

But we know who he is now. So does he become less dangerous?

text killswithapen February 23 2011, 18:18:53 UTC

Inevitably.

text forever neargenius February 23 2011, 18:22:41 UTC

I know who you are. That doesn't change anything.

NO!

[text forever] neargenius February 23 2011, 20:06:35 UTC

Which part.

[voice forever] hairdecs February 23 2011, 20:13:45 UTC

...

Oh. Uhm. The part about... people killing where they come from and getting in trouble for it here, Sir.

neargenius February 23 2011, 20:28:08 UTC

I'm not a "sir".

Why shouldn't they? You have to give a reason.
