| Message | This is insane. Judgements don't necessarily mean correctness. That's why it is always necesary to allow the right to appeal. |
| Date | 13:31:40, June 14, 2007 CET | From | Gaduri Resistencia | To | Debating the The Court System |
| Message | Precisely. No verdict is certain: there is always some degree of doubt. Therefore, the right to appeal should be universal. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
