Juries keep the law alive to what real people think; they help to keep the courts from losing touch with that. Judges do pay attention to what juries decide and it informs their decisions. It's a vital piece of our common law system and we should hold on dearly to the right to a trial by jury.
4/4

It's often argued that juries are worse than judges at making a legal decision, and a lot of the time, that maybe true. But if it's only ever judges relying on past judges' decisions, we lose connection with what we as a society think is right or wrong.
3/x

Judges are tightly bound by law and precedent; Juries can choose to look at things differently.

This isn't just limited to jury nullification; they will in many cases follow their own views of right and wrong (instead of precedent) outside the lines of how the law says they should decide.

We're gonna have to start calling the Coliseum "The Facility"

Unbelievable. I thought this was America

Incredible regional content

when I saw "25m contract" I thought, 'that's a high AAV, but he's worth it'

Also, the scene where there's a bunch of nazis on a bridge

not Attell, he was apparently asked but turned them down. Top row is Segura/Morril/Davidson/Djalili/Patel

I'd be tempted to take a job there just to write a lot of memos refusing illegal/immoral instructions. Do they let people keep the $20k if they get fired in the first month?

I'd love to see him take Fonzie's old #67
