Many years ago, I would from time to time, remind the posters who were calling others "BORG" and almost UN American for their accusations of the Ramseys, that here on the internet and on the "discussion" forums, we are NOT inside a courtroom and we can opine however we like. It is our constitutional right to do so, and if anything at all it is the AMERICAN way. It is our freedom of speech. I stopped posting on that topic as it grew tiresome to remind others over and over again.
I have since seen many posts where others are browbeaten for posting against the "presumption of innocence" in this country.
The other night, while watching the Dan Abrams report, his closing argument reminded me again of my old, tiresome arguments and I thought it would be worth posting for those who tend to feel that they must be politically correct when speaking their opinions. WE ARE NOT IN A COURT OF LAW.
I brought the link here so that others can be reminded by someone other than myself that they need not feel bad or intimidated by their opinions. Dan Abrams put it so much better than I ever did.
