2008/5/10-16 [Reference/Law/Court] UID:49929 Activity:moderate | 5/10 In Linux, is there a safe way to resize a mounted LVM
ext3 partition? I know you can do it with reiserfs.
None of my partitions are in reiserfs. I was thinking of
converting to reiserfs, but then I don't want to wake up
one morning and read how Linus has decreed no convicted
murderers can touch his git repository now.

Votes for death for Moussaoui were 11-1, 10-2, 10-2 on three death-
penalty eligible charges.
On the 11-1 vote, jury foreman says the reason for the life in prison
vote was never put forth by the dissenter for discussion by the group
despite repeated attempts to draw out a reason.

2006/5/3-4 [Reference/Law/Court] UID:42915 Activity:nil | 5/2 Zacarias Moussaoui verdict in 20 minutes (it's now 1:10PM, it'll
be out at 1:30PM). What is your prediction? Death or life in prison?
\_ Life. He didn't actually participate, and his role was minimal.
Death if the jurors are stupid / weak-willed. I wouldn't be
surprised if they vote for death just so they won't be outed as the
juror who voted for life for a 9/11 terrorist.

2005/12/9-11 [Reference/Law/Court] UID:40943 Activity:moderate | 12/9 Hey, I'm looking at Tookie's case right now, and it really looks like
he's being convicted of circumstantial evidence -- and where there are
witnesses who said he did it, they're all bad people as well and/or who
are in a position to get something out of testifying against Tookie.
Tookie had been a thug at the very least, but like I said: on the
murder convictions, circumstantial, and questionable witnesses.

2004/11/10-11 [Politics/Domestic/Crime, Reference/Law/Court] UID:34812 Activity:kinda low | 11/10 I think that Scott Peterson is guilty, but I am disturbed that
the judge can just replace jurors who seem to be holdouts. What's
up with that? The person was just too smart with a law and
medical degree and so they get booted for a 'hang 'em high' type?
I didn't realize our justice system provided for a trial by 'your
peers, except for that guy and that guy'.

I don't see what the big fuss is about.

\_ check out http://www.fija.org The judge can tell you whatever they want
but it's pefectly legal for a juror to base their decision on
anything. Its a dirtly little secret they dont want you to know.
