And I can't tell you why. Maybe I'm projecting. But it's my gut intuition. Though is this not a category of thought that should be discerned via "fast thinking"? Are there any studies that compare test subjects' judgments of guilt, based on defendant photographs, to jury verdicts?

- gargarplex 13y agoHaha, oh man. Do you think the judge would let me cite this thread as evidence for why I should be excused? Also: you have a cognitive error, bud. I was a victim in this case; I would not be eligible for the jury.

- nknighthb 13y agoAny jury, anywhere, for any case. People who think they can infer guilt from an utterly neutral facial expression captured in a still image are not fit to participate in any system of justice.
- gargarplex 13y agoOK, that comment was mean. Are you aware of that? edit: hahahaha, all right, whatever. he still looks guilty to me. sorry if he's innocent. regardless, there is definitely a sentiment, and i voiced it. i don't regret contributing. maybe my tone or something could have been improved? i'm not sure, because i don't disagree with my actions.
