Is today's system better?
- DubiousPusher 9y agoPhilosophically yes. In practice, perhaps not.
- ringaroundthetx 9y agoIt relies on testimony under a penalty of perjury that is rarely enforced and little way of proving, with witnesses that do not fear a supernatural extrajudicial force. Testimony is masqueraded as truth, or at least final. You already know the answer.
- DubiousPusher 9y agoAgreed. The extent to which human testiminy is relied upon in court is a scandal. Especially with how much we now know about the ubiquity of human incorrectness, bias and lies.
