more critisizm would show up if you would post what has been sent in.
Next their will be crying that juveniles should be treated different. If a junvinel does an adult crime then have the jury trial otherwise whats wrong with keeping the system as is. The stupid supreme court is always causing problems their getting as bad as the stupid ACLU.
Are not juveniles subject to the same RIGHTS under the Constitution of this Republic or does one have to be of a "select" age before one has Constitutional Rights? Why does age preclude one from having a jury trial when one is charged with crimes? Far too long have juveniles been treated as Second Class members of society. Read Section 1 of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution of this REPUBLIC.
whats next? death penalties for toddlers? where is the funding coming from for all the jury trials? it was already in the law, for serious crimes, juries were used for juveniles.
so the judiciary branch makes some more work for themselvs, all three branches are supposed to have checks and balances with each other, what are the checks on the judiciary? they are not elected, and who tells them that their decisions are stupid?
Way to go Supreme Court, way to make our taxes go higher!
