"Lets talk about terrorism"?
Ok; lets start by talking about all the civillian casualties in Pakistan,
Palistine, Syria and similar that the USA's interference is causing. And then
lets imagine what the USA's government would do if a foreign power was bombing
*their* cities into oblivion. And if you expect me to believe that a skyscraper
fell into it's own footprint at freefall accellerations because it was hit
halfway up by an aeroplane then I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn. And
that's before we even start talking about the time between impact and collapse.
Yeah, I'm just fine talking about terrorism. But I' m not sure you'd like me
to.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Overall, while jury trials are flawed, they do decrease the
power of the judiciary - which is an important safeguard for
human rights. I'm actually willing to waste hundreds of
billions of dollars on foolish verdicts in patent trials to
safeguard those rights. Admittedly, given that we've
already established the right of the POTUS to murder
American citizens (including minors) without a trial, I'm
not entirely sure what we're safeguarding...but...presumably
something.
That said, I do love giving defendants the option of sending
their patent case before an expert panel. I am somewhat
pessimistic about the probability of substantially
overturning the Samsung verdict, but I'm not a lawyer and
could well be wrong. It sounds like a judgement call.
However, portions of the case (prior art) do sound like
justice was not done, so I'll guess that Judge Koh or an
appeals court will do something.

Not a right set up in (as in created) in the constitution, but rather a
pre-existing inalienable human right, one of a set recognized and protected in
the constitution and bill of rights.
Other than that, your points are well taken. Al of these rights are under
threat.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
