how do I say this...
First there is no good reason for this..nobody on here is a lawyer (at least none of us) so nobody should be giving legal advice to others.
Even if it is only friendly, legal advice should be left up to the counsel that you are appointed or hire.
This idea could work if it wasn't for legal advice, but just law in general.
I am almost inclined to say LOL at yet another person bringing up that this is for "giving advice". I believe my very first post on this thread sums it up.

basically I am thinking of a forum which people could discuss local, national, or global criminal cases and trials. Debate the evidence with eachother. I think that there are a large number of people out there that enjoy doing this kind of thing and that it will be an active thread.
discuss, debate................................................ am I missing where I have said anything about giving advice ?
Show me at which post I say that this is for giving advice, I happen to know I have said far more times than I care to really count, that this is not for giving advice.
Also how do you know that nobody on here is a lawyer? do you happen to know the occupation of every jsp user? I know there was at least one guy that said he is in law school and would very much like to see this forum be created.
I take it though that you did not take the time to read the whole thread, or you might realize that.
read the whole thread as to ensure your vote remains unbiased.
If you would like to debate something with me about this idea (clearly you have not read the thread so I will state it here) then cite the source when giving examples, when referring to a jsp post in this thread state the page and post number. For examples of how both of these can be done read the thread and see how I have done so.
again to everyone who has yet to vote, read the thread. it is mainly 26 pages of bumps. Should not take the average reader more than 15 minutes at the most, but really more like 10 at the most. 128 for yes 73 for no. How much more of a yes over no ratio do we need to get this created?
Thanks for the vote anyway pry.
