Should we be considered guilty today until proven innocent for any offense someone may accuse us of? Hope not!

One of the most sacred principles in the American criminal justice system, holding that a defendant is innocent until proven guilty. In other words, the prosecution must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, each essential element of the crime charged.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, article 11, states: "Everyone charged with a penal offence has the right to be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to law in a public trial at which he has had all the guarantees necessary for his defence."

So, are we better off today being guilty until proven innocent? That is so wrong in my mind. Chances are We’d all be living in fear of each other, wouldn’t we?

Not sure how you arrived at that bro but nice try. You’re talking about war and I’m talking about civil offenses. Itregardless, it is well beyond reasonable doubt what happened when the cowardice Japanese attacked the USA at Pearl Harbor without declaring war. wave

Yeah, there are people on here who rush to judgement over anything and would be excellent witch hunters in my humble opinion.

For the left leaning, it has nothing to do with guilt or innocence. For them it's about getting their ideology imposed on everyone else at all cost. Truth, innocence, fairness, freedom of speech or due process, all be dammed, as only they and their believes are what's important to them. They think their better, smarter and more honest then anyone else despite their lying, cheating, and robbing other's of their God given rights.
They live by the motto: " By any means necessary"

Sorry mate, I was getting caught up in the moment thinking about sweet Lou blushing

I've had one too many beers.

I could be wrong but something tells me that sweet Louie doesn't appreciate my mansplaining crying

I agree, the concept of innocent until proven guilty is sacrosanct.

It's just unfortunate that in the US, there appears to be a distinct lack of reasonable doubting.

Everyone deserves to be considered innocent.

Until they refuse to answer yes or no questions on the matter; and try to obfuscate the fact they're not answering questions, by crying whenever they're asked to answer questions with a simple, "yes or no."

At that point: they should be considered as liars, and perjured persons; and every claim they make should be scrutinized very carefully, and thoroughly investigated.

I think that’s a sad statement. You weren’t there in the 1980s or was it early 1980s or who was the doctor’s driver then but was 100% sure who groped her, whose house was she partying at when she was purportedly groped at blah blah blah.
The prosecutor at the confirmation hearing gave the good doctor a lot of rope and the good doctor hung herself. Go back and replay the hearings... in my opinion the circus is all about what Feinstein and groupies want... which isn’t justice. wave
