    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                              No commentator I've heard on this case can come up with a reasonable explanation for why a jury could be hung on the more severe charge but unanimously not-guilty on the charge with a lower standard of proof. Of course, the juror(s) who wanted guilty on Manslaughter might have just been sick of deliberating, or got emotional or petulant for whatever reason, but there's no logic to this otherwise.

                                I meant to answer this earlier. If there was a lone wolf or two in the room pushing for conviction, they may have realized it was a lost cause. Especially after going home for the weekend, getting out of the deliberations for a few days… It’s also very possible that they heard from family or saw enough news to make them reconsider.

                                Of course, it’s most likely that they came to the conclusion that if they didn’t vote to acquit, then those filthy white supremacists on the jury would leak their info to other white supremacists and they would be in danger, and for no good reason since Penny would never serve time in jail.

                                    In the primaries because there was always someone better (never someone worse) and in the general to make a statement knowing it was futile.

                                          She knows in her heart of hearts that had she been in that subway car that day she would have felt profound relief when a strong young man took down the crazy.

                                          I’ve seen the crazy. Everyone who rides (or in my case rode) the subway regularly eventually does. It’s pretty scary, because you ultimately don’t know what kind of weapon the guy has but you do know he’s not at all bound by civility, sanity, or even self preservation.

                                          Only non-witches get due process.
