Uptowngirl Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Moderators please note, Is it appropriate for someone to name themselves "Jew Boy"? If someone registered as **** Lad or ****** girl, there would be an outcry. It is not the use of "Jew" I object to, but when it is coupled with "boy" in this way it is an insulting term. Please do something about it. What about boy friday or uptowngirl? Are they OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchemist Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I find it troubling. Not that they are pleading not guilty, they are after all mentally unbalanced but the fact they have a lawyer and or barrister who would go into court and argue they are innocent. Its called legal aid, they will get paid no matter what the verdict ker ching!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyfriday Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 I don't suppose "It wasn't me, I didn't do it, I wasn't there" will wash with this one will it? Or..."Iz it coz I'z black" Although there is a possibility (if the religious zealously has left them) that they will try to blame each other.

Why do you think they are mentally unbalanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyfriday Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 Our law courts recognise the existence of God and some of our laws are based on the word of God If it's a defence for murder then someone better let Peter Sutcliffe out of Broadmoor with a fulsome apology.

angos Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 If it's a defence for murder then someone better let Peter Sutcliffe out of Broadmoor with a fulsome apology. Could he prove that God told him to do it? And just because someone submits a defence doesn't mean they will win, the court can simply dismiss them as nutters if it wants.

boyfriday Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 why when people Like this are bang To rights do we even bother with the niceties I don't know! C'mon Adam, it's precisely for trials of this nature that we bother with the 'niceties'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truman Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Could he prove that God told him to do it? He's not managed it so far in over 30 years so I suppose the answer is "No,he can't".. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyfriday Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 Could he prove that God told him to do it? I think his failure to do so is why he's in prison, just as these 2 will be if they try a similar approach. And just because someone submits a defence doesn't mean they will win I didn't suggest they would, but it's pointless submitting a defence which isn't accepted in law..eg self defence, provocation, mistaken identity, diminished responsibility etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
