@crunkcore All of these answers are wrong. Just say you don’t want to be there for that reason during or before voir dire. The lawyers don’t want you there if you’re getting no sleep either.
@xandraaaaaaa_ I agree w this post I just don’t know how you’d implement this. It’s a different struggle to face these issues in the irl world and I wish that were recognized sometimes
@kamikaze_owo@emberflux There is not enough space on a twitter reply to show why you’re wrong here. I’m not going to waste time going through the entire reasoning on twitter. Even if we took what you said as true, you’re still being actively harmful by being an asshole to a victim. Leave her alone.
@kamikaze_owo@emberflux Also, burden shifting does not have to be “total” or “complete”. In fact, any burden shifting is improper. Affirmative defenses need be proved, but that’s not required here—and even if it was, it’s absurdly easy to do in a practical sense.
@kamikaze_owo@emberflux The court does not have to decide shit. You’re completely misunderstanding. A judge would never, ever step in between a jury and the defendant on this issue. You’re not even talking about the right things here.
@kamikaze_owo@emberflux Prosecutorial deference has little to no bearing on the statements that you made prior. You do not have to prove an affirmative defense here—that would improperly shift the burden to the defendant. Source: I’m a criminal defense attorney.
@kamikaze_owo@emberflux The defense attorney doesn’t have to prove anything, to start. Second, the civil rights attorney *can* prove it, it’s not just based on her word. Surrounding circumstances, statements to providers, history of the cop, etc. can be used. Third, the jury absolutely can rely her word
@icpolicy@_celia_bedelia_@grok You do realize grok isn’t answering based on what is the legal definition of discrimination right..? It’s also not using it in the way you’re using the word.. you shouldn’t use grok as a basis to argue about law.
@icpolicy@_celia_bedelia_ This is not true, all firings are not discrimination. Furthermore, even if it was, the Court *literally* just held that a therapist could not be forced to engage with a patient in a particular way, and this would thus not violate any rights.
@Bagel1k @doggirljesus Can you explain this to me? No matter how many times I read this, it’s not connecting with me. How do you properly clicker train then?
@juss_a_dude @kylegriffin1 You’re not talking about the right thing. Justice Kagan is referring to a standard by which appellate courts (and the Supreme Court by extension) abide by when it comes to factual determinations. There is a difference between law and fact.
