The right to remain alive

well there appear to be a lot of reasons its better to get him to Guantanamo..where military not civil rules apply

It boggles my mind why SCA can't answer such a simple question Maps.

If SCA was in the witness box I would ask him 3 times to answer the question.  If he refused on the 4th I would immediately request a contempt of court order and for him to spend the night in jail.

No one runs from Counsel Snoopy.

because SCA is one of dem fellas who work for those who send them to sites to advocate certain destabilising angles that favour the state.
 
he is getting paid for what appears to be his political obduracy in debate..but is really calculated bulllshiit  to answer your question  would be to engage in common sense and intelligent inter-action.

he is not here to promote that

The only problem it appears is that Snoopy is running from himself....

Counsel careful...don't play loose with facts.

Why are you running from answering a simple question?

What was your question again?

But would you not agree that in the American system of Jurisprudence, where a person is presumed innocent until guilt is proven in a court of law, an accused person at the start (and even at the conclusion) of a criminal trial has an equal chance of a not guilty verdict as that of a guilty verdict?

My agreement or disagreeemnt is inconsequential. Every person is presumed innocent in a court of law. And the outcome of guilt or innocence is based upon a preponderance of evidence submitted and accepted by the courts as facts.

Now where we we?

Proponderance of evidence is the civil standard of proof my dear Watson.  The criminal standard of proof in American jurisprudence is beyond a reasonable doubt.

Now why can't you answer a simple question I put before you?
