you tried to make the point that "justice wasn't served" - my point, which would be fairly obvious to anyone not busy ramping up quota driven, billable hours with questionable items and for any contrived reason,... was that many in Florida would agree that justice was served.
its a subjective concept... hence the need for a judge and jury to make the final decision.... and the opportunities of the prosecution and the accused to argue their case.
and as you well know .. process was followed and he was convicted by a jury of his peers with every opportunity to argue his case. he and his attorneys failed. he was judged.
end of story.
when you play with fire... you get burned. when you push the system and people... eventually the system and people push back. when you position yourself as the worst of worst and scream "fuck you" while you do it... it can only have one outcome. arguing the specifics after the fact is pretty retarded when the risks of his behavior and attitude were quite clear.
we are talking about a guy who happily screamed "fuck you FBI" on this very board while being under investigation and having his office raided... and a guy who pushes the boundaries so far that the vast majority of the people in this business (complete degenerates that the are), are repulsed by his movies. lets not pretend he was just some innocent girl scout, selling cookies door to door, who was snatched up by men in black suburbans, taken to a secret CIA base and wrongly accused of trying to assassinate the president of USA.
what the law should and should not be...
where the boundaries are and should not be...
what people feel is and shouldn't be illegal...
all have nothing to with the fact that this was all an obvious end to a story that wrote its own ending from the start.
