Preserving the 7th Amendment

The day after Independence Day...the day after we celebrated our freedom...we saw, once again, that our Founders were brilliant. 

We saw yesterday why our bravest men and women fight tirelessly for our freedom.

"In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law."

Whatever happened to little Caylee, God will avenge her.  Yesterday, however, the jury did their job.  Reasonable doubt was alive in the jurors' minds and they did the correct thing. 

We certainly don't have to appreciate this verdict, but we must understand that we have the greatest Justice System on earth.
