Isn't that tautological? Innocent people, not being perpetrators, think and feel they "should" be acquitted on the basis of their innocence, not on the basis of denial. It's only on the basis of denial if they actually did the thing.

- ImPostingOnHN 3y agoyou swapped in "innocent people" for "people", but it's worth noting that guilty people and companies often feel the same way so no, the original, un-word-swapped quote isn't tautological
- mcpackieh 3y agometadat said perps, as in perpetrators. Between perpetrators and innocent people that covers all people. What am I missing? Maybe you read perps as peeps?
