its no wonder they couldnt find them guilty
you should have been in court Answerprancer because you obviously have access to more important evidence than the jury and others in that court had.
i mean afterall its pretty obvious to everyone that wasnt there on the night or in court to hear all the details that they were all guilty.
how blind can people be to the truth, c'mon it was whites killing asians they must be guilty, stands to reason

pdq1, I wondered that.The reason why we have an offence of causing death by dangerous driving is that juries refused to convict of manslaughter so the government invented a manslaughter by another name, which they would convict on.
The prosecution must have thought that there was a plain provable intent to use the vehicle as a weapon and to inflict gbh with it.
I'd have indicted for murder and causing death by dangerous driving as the alternative. That gives the jury a let out which they might take and leave the prosecution with a result.

I don't think that those involved should have been set free, but then I was not on the jury and heard all the evidence, and after all that is why we have juries in this country, without them there would be lynchings in the streets.
But what does come out from this case was the need for the judge to make these remarks,
/// "I know Mr Jahan has done wonderful things for the city in ensuring we didn't have a complete conflagration last August. ///
Praise indeed, but credit where it is due for Mr Jahan taking that attitude after the killings of his sons.
The judge further went on to say,
/// "Can I please ask you to remain calm and so far as it humanly possible to put everything that happened last August behind you and look to the future. ///
One must ask why certain groups have to be told to keep calm?
Are the indigenous community more placid when certain decisions go against them, than are members of the ethnic communities?
And then finely the judge said,
/// "Throughout the trial you have all behaved in a most dignified way and I am very grateful for that." ///
How Kowtowing and patronizing is that?

Are the indigenous community more placid when certain decisions go against them, than are members of the ethnic communities?
No, no more so than when other indigenous British people (say from Northern Ireland perhaps) are urged to remain calm during sectarian violence or where a member of Sinn Fein is convicted of murder.
If you believed the black community is so prone to rioting, then every time a black kid who was ever arrested, tried and convicted went to prison, there would be a riot...and there isn't.

i should have made myself more clearer, I was referring to the indigenous population of England.
/// If you believed the black community is so prone to rioting, then every time a black kid who was ever arrested, tried and convicted went to prison, there would be a riot...and there
isn't. ///
Firstly i wasn't just referring to the 'black' communities, but if you want to go down that road, your statement that /// if every time a black kid who was ever arrested, tried and convicted went to prison, there would be a riot. /// is just sheer ridiculous,
That of course would never happen, but one must admit they don't take kindly to police 'stop and search' actions, whereas you hardly hear of white kids complaining.

I beg your pardon...couldn't hear what you were saying over the noise of those goalposts being shifted.

Point taken. I assume you mean the Asian community?
Actually, let me not prejudge...who were you referring to in your post?
[i]That of course would never happen, but one must admit they don't take kindly to police 'stop and search' actions, whereas you hardly hear of white kids complaining]
Well, that could be because you're 30 times more likely to be stopped and searched if you're black:

Perhaps the reason you don't hear white kids complaining, because it's such a rare event in their lives?

Yes now the Guardian and the London School of Economics would say that wouldn't they?
Do you think the police purposely go out to just stop and search young blacks just because they are black, what haver they to gain?
No the more reasonable answer would be that for some reason and in some areas, blacks are more likely to be suspected of a crime, and I think you will find this is not far from the truth, judging by the enormous number of 'black on black' knife and gun crime and general gang culture.

But that's not what we're discussing. You wrote "you hardly hear of white kids complaining".
I pointed out that they are much less likely to be stopped and searched.
Thirty times less likely.
I didn't assert any probable cause on the part of the police...just presenting you with facts on the numbers stopped and searched.
You then went on to pose a question which indicates an assumed position on my part:
Do you think the police purposely go out to just stop and search young blacks just because they are black, what haver they to gain?
and then went on to answer it on my behalf!
Well, thanks for that, but if we all started asking and then answering our own questions, it would seriously compromise the point of AB existing.
