That's a viewpoint of a bullshit legal system of thugs, based on the accused being guilty until proven innocent.

That's a viewpoint of a bullshit legal system of thugs, based on the accused being guilty until proven innocent.
- mirimir 8y agoActually, that's a pretty common standard. It's more or less a part of legal systems based on the Napoleonic Code. Defendants are basically treated as guilty until proven innocent. Don't get arrested in Mexico, for example, unless you can pay good bribes. And actually, now in the UK you can be jailed for refusing to provide decryption keys or passphrases. We just saw the new policy in India. And things are heading that way in the US. Also, those charged with politically incorrect offenses are more and more treated as guilty until proven innocent. So anyway, claiming moral superiority is an iffy proposition.
