I do not think reading actual facts is on Big Blitzes menu today, or any day.

Ok. So is this red or green now (with the updated info)?

Haha. I would much appreciate it. And I am not Dutch, so a colour coding chart would work. If it is kept simple. Red for scansig, green for banter? (I believe Dutch and colour blindness might be recreational drug related. All colours kind of blends together.)

You are most welcome. Looking forward to your future contributions.

I am not a fan. I know (almost) nothing about him or his policies. I am not from the US.

Cute. Besties. 🥰🥰🥰 -
I get very confused when I watch documentaries about US criminal cases. I think I kind of understand the jury system, although I would like to know how much input the judge gives the jury prior to the deliberation. I guess it varies. Having heard the things the laymen judges sometimes say during deliberation I would be very worried letting them deliberate on their own. What really confuses me is the appeal system in the US. In Sweden you can always appeal to the court of appeal. And they will try every criminal case unless the sentence was just a fine (or if someone is found not guilty and the sentence would have been just a fine). It seem to vary in the US. Different in different states maybe? All in all the legal systems are very different. Which is interesting but confusing. What kind of law do you practise as a lawyer?

Never on a jury. Do not have a jury system in Sweden (with a very rare exception). But I have tried hundreds of criminal cases as a judge. In Sweden at district courts criminal cases are normally tried by a legally trained judge and three laymen judges. Each vote has the same "value". If it is a split (2-2) there will be no conviction. However at least 90-95 percent of the time the laymen will agree with the legally trained judge. And if not the court of appeal will usually change the verdict. In the court of appeal there are three legally trained judges and two laymen judges. In the Supreme court there are no laymen judges. But they rarely try cases. The laymen judges are elected four years at a time. So no risk of getting called up if you do not want to "serve". Legally trained judges are appointed "for life".

Thou Shalt Not Insult the Leader

I don't mind Greta. She stands for what she believes in and tries to act without using violence. Impressive accomplishes as well, like it or not. Don't really know anything about her sister. Noticed a link to an article and saw a picture but did not read it. Looked different from Greta.
