"Sound and prudent Judgment" based on a "simple understanding"...
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, September 09 2012 @ 06:29 PM EDT
When the testimony (and even the facts themselves) get messy, filtered through
lawyers not interested in the whole truth, not everyone can find the
"Simple understanding" that is correct, and fewer still can then
proceed to the
"Sound and prudent judgement" stage, especially with the
uncertainties.

There was a similar divide I observed in 1985 or so in the Soviet union amongst
the teenagers (of whom massive numbers were getting very temporarily rounded up
at protests) and the older university professors that were teaching us crazy
gringos how to speak Russian. The professors were *much* more conservative, as
they had grown up in a time when things were much more controlled, so small acts
of rebellion could make a big difference. The teenagers disagreed...
