Holy crap, this is my professor. Professor Rosenberg is an excellent scholar and quite a good lecturer as well.

@jacobfox2000 Lucky you! His lectures are so good and He really cares about his subject. I bet you have really enjoyed taking his class!

I rather have some guilty go to prison and some dont than to have all guilty with some innocents that go to prison.

I hope that make sense?

[ThinkwellVids]

@wtong89 I think so. Basically you are saying, it's better to not send innocent people to prison and have some guilty people slip through the system than imprison all the guilty people along with innocents because of the system. It's a hard balance to manage and one I think our courts struggle with everyday.

why doesnt this have way more views?

[pinkfloyddwc]

That was great!

I always wondered where that came from! Thank you :)

@ThinkwellVids I've taken all four of his undergraduate classes at the University of Chicago, and I plan on trying to return to the Law School to take a few more if I can.

Your comment was that the judicial branch was only to "abide" by what the law is. That is an incorrect statement. Whether you feel that my correction of your mistake was personal or not, I did not make an ad hominem attack as you just did in your reply. But its clear that I am waging a battle of wits with the unarmed... the fact remains that in our system, judges in fact are able to interpret the law, and in so doing, may alter its application. Thus they do not make the law.

[officerirwin]

Yes In deed sir, a desparate need of a civics lesson. Personal attacks so little class, sir.

I have no issue with Justices interpreting the law, and infact thats something we both can agree on; however my personal political beliefs are that Justices are not to make precident laws, thats up to the legislation to make law on the recomendation of the Courts, the President, and the public.

[gilbygil11]

your understanding of the constitutional framework of this great country could not be more pedestrian. Justice Marshall stated, "It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is" - Marbury v. Madison (1803)

under the common law, judges are called to interpret the law. very often you will find hypocrites who praise this power when they agree with the court and decry it when they don't. you, sir, are in desperate need of a basic civics lesson...
