I think that we should get rid of jury trials. I think that what we should do is stream every trial on the internet and have a jury by Internet.

If you want to you can go on your fazebook like page and see a list of trials, with a short description, and preferably some memes.

Then you can log in and watch the trial, and for example if a lawyer objects,. you can vote on whether on not its sustained or denied.

You can totally help the lawyers with the examination by sending in questions that will go right to their tablets.

And in the end, you can actually vote on the verdict.

Social democratization at its best.

Oh and lawyers can appeal on meme.

I mean frankly no matter what the courts are going to be accused of racism, its just going to happen.

I get the whole concept of social equalization, but I have to ask, does that really matter when it comes to the examination of an actual crime, or should that be reserved for the decision concerning the sentences if found guilty.

I get it, you're poor or you have a severe alcohol disorder or you're a drug addict. But does that matter when it comes to the crime you committed.

I'm poor so I shot this person killing him.

I'm addicted to drugs, so I broke into a families house and beat them to within an inch of his life.

I'm come from a drunken family so I got drunk and got into a car and ran over a kid.

Frankly, I always believed that the question in front of the courts is more about, did you commit the crime. All of the other factors can come into play after that's decided to me.

Also in no way does for example putting quotas in a jury make a court less racist. If you have a native defendant saying that you have to actually have half native and half whatever isn't inherently less racist. The question has to be, can you get beyond the race of the defendant and put forward a fair verdict based on the evidence put forward to you and based on the rules of the courts and the law.

Also I get the idea that they believe that the courts are racist, so what do they want? Their own justice system within Canada? do we do that with everyone, but what happens when you have a race on race crime then, you're back into the whole court is racist thing.

If you want to make the courts less racist, then you have to find a way to make it open and understandable, so that the first instinct isn't just to look at a verdict and decide its racist.

If you want to make the courts less racist, then you need to find a way to make people take the time and actually understand how a verdict was reached, which means things like making jurors explain why they reached every single verdict, similar to what a judge has to do.
