| OK, so if a preponderance of the evidence says he's innocent of any wrongdoing, can somebody explain why the Coffee County Persecutor was trying to convict him of murder? |

| Well Mickey, most likely because the prosecutor in this case wasn't representing the State within the confines of the law as written, but rather as he, personally, would like it to be. Too many judges and prosecutors have this mindset: they are activists for specific political positions, not neutral functionaries. After all, "shall not be infringed" has morphed into "may be infringed at the whim of politicians, prosecutors, and the courts". |

TO REMEMBER |
| As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
