When it comes to how it actually happens that a court is all straight white men that is incredibly naive.

Why does race have to come into it?

What difference does it make what their sexuality is or what their race is ?

  Are Black people and White people different or something ?

According to some people on here....yes. Personally, I just wanna see the best people doing the best job. Regardless of race. But for many Americans it seems, a lot seems to revolve around race.

Judges should reflect somewhat the society that they are judging.  With a greater diversity of judge backwards justice will tend to improve and decisions better accepted by more people. Not about quotas or perfection. There are well qualified candidates from very diverse backgrounds. 

Like I say, choose the best person for the job.....colour shouldn't come into it.

Right. Some are meant to follow the law, be it corrupt, imbalanced rulings or well thought out ones. Others are meant to make the rules fair and lead responsibly. 

If you prefer to exhibit criminal tendencies by not following the law, that is up to you. I'll stick to staying out of prison.

So if a law is promulgated, stating that you have to give up your first born…; you’ll just follow? Regardless of whether you agree or not or your personal beliefs?

I follow the law. I don't choose which laws I should follow and which I shouldn't.

Ever heard of the word hypocrite? Are you one of those that wants to follow every law and rule no matter if it's an unfair law? Fair and equal justice: guess you've never heard of that? So you want to support fining, imprisoning people for smoking a plant but no problem regarding all the vehicular manslaughter caused Directly due to drinking. This doesn't happen with weed. When are people going to to understand that's it's an imbalance of justice instead of just sheepishly allowing or supporting unfair laws? . Regulate it properly and its fixed. Govt should regulate liquor more than weed. Duh. But go ahead with this silly game of toying with people's lives, and kowtowing to the alcohol industry desires,  their corrupt behavior acting in cahoots with corrupt law enforcement and government officials. Red shirts buying votes too... shame on them.  You're wrong for siding with it.  Will of the people my ___.

I follow the law rather than decide which laws I want to follow and which I don't. If it is illegal, I don't do it. If it is legal, I will choose whether I want to do it or not.

I hope you get put in prison the next time you drink alcohol or put some sugar in your coffee..

Last I looked, drinking alcohol and eating sugar weren't illegal in these parts of the world. However, if they were made illegal, I would have to man up and face the consequences of my actions if I decided to partake.

The consequences are a fine/jail time not inhuman treatment.

I guess that depends on what country you are in.

Dangerous ???...  over egg yer pudding much.... 

 

And he does deserve sympathy - his treatment is inhumane.

 

People like yourself would have the same response to someone caught with weed a couple of years ago...   

As long as drugs are illegal, you don’t have a leg to stand on.

He was carrying them. He wasn't taking them. <deleted>, it was just some e, and a very little bit. 

Just some E……a dangerous and illegal drug in the country he is in. And he deserves our sympathy why exactly? He chose his path, he can’t have any complaints

If I ever made the mistake of propagating, the LAST thing I would do is overspend on a kid of leave them much inheritance. That would rob them of what I found to be life's greatest pleasure, which is meeting challenges and making one's self a success.

 

Let the kid find out what he or she is made of.

When I'm on my deathbed, I'd like to know that I gave my kid the best chance in life that I could. Don't worry, he will still face challenges and have to find his own success, but at least I gave him a chance.

As for saying it is a mistake to propagate, it is purely an individual thing. If you want a kid, great. If not, great. Nobody is wrong.

The more you give your kids, the less they like you!

Therein lies the tightrope between giving them a good life or chance in life, and spoiling the #$@# out of them. Spending money on a good education and worthwhile activities outside of school is money well spent IMHO.

If people want kids, fine.

But it seems some people underestimate how much it cost to raise them properly.

Personally I am just not willing to use half my income or more for kids. If other people want to do that, fine.

Nothing more worthwhile than spending my money to give my kid a good life.

Drugs....not worth it. The cause of too many problems (along with ladyboys). Just ask the young guy that got murdered in Isaan or the Kiwi in jail in Phuket.

What is the purpose?

It is expensive and burdensome

What do you gain from it

 

For me, I love my family and friends, but nothing trumps the love I have for my kid. That’s the purest form of love and a love like no other in my opinion. This from a guy who had no intention of having kids when I was younger.
