Default Pram Rage Incident

d gurgled happily, sounding much like they were
saying:

But for most normal people the evidence against Hitler would be
absolutely rock solid.


That's kinda the problem with your whole line of logic, though.

You want to raise the bar PAST "Beyond _Reasonable_ Doubt". That can
ONLY introduce UNREASONABLE doubt as a block to prosecution.


"beyond reasonable doubt" is just vacuous legalese that doesn't
actually mean anything.


Don't be daft, man. It's plain bloody English.


Its also meaningless because theres no such thing as "unreasonable
doubt". If anyone has a doubt then to them its not unreasonable.


So the 9/11 "truthers" and holocaust deniers are merely exercising
reasonable doubt?

Beyond reasonable doubt simply means no doubt at all.


So how come you're arguing in favour of a stronger test?
