Because they live in the same society as you, and they get to decide who goes to jail as much as you do
Nice argument you made there, we don't decide who goes to jail, a judge does that, someone who studied law.
Corporate lawyers.
Are you familiar with juries?
No, I'm from a country where the jury all studied law and isn't 64 year old Margereta who wants to see some drama to tell at her knitting and book clubs.
There are a lot more countries than yours, believe it or not, and some of them don’t have the same justice system as yours. Do people in your country have the right to vote? Same sentiment, do you think that’s a stupid system?
Your first argument can be used against you, lmao. Your second argument is a strawman. Good job.
