You can't have it both ways. Would you like to judge your fellow posters against the job description of a detective or a juror?
Don't really understand the point you are making?
When we post here we are neither a detective or a juror.
We are people giving a personal opinion.
The point I was making was that some people are incredibly forgiving when it seems to me that this case is only going to play out in one way.
