I came up with this idea not to long ago but here is the basis of it. I will post a story probably every day and let people here debate if that person should be innocent or guilty. The story could be real or fake but I won't tell you. If you have a story that you want debated, comment my profile so I can find it easier. This thread is just to get people thinking about justice. All stories will be posted in this thread. If you need help finding it, just ask what page it is on. Here is the first story...
A man was walking on a woman's porch holding a knife. He has not entered the home. She notices him and looks out the window. He holds the knife out and laughs. The woman becomes scared and releases her pit bull outside. She calls the police and they arrive 10 minutes later. However, before they arrive, the dog attacks the man and he receives serious wounds. Now we are in the court room. The man says he thought he was at his friend's home. He says that his friend left the knife at his house and was returning it. The man meant no harm to the woman and demands that she pay his medical bills for the dog bites. So, we have a woman who believes it was self defense to let the dog go. She thought he would hurt her and trespassing so she thinks he should be put in jail. She also says she does not have to pay the medical bills. He believes the dog should be put down and the woman pay his medical bills. Who is right and who is wrong? You be the judge.
Remember, you are debating what you think should be done to the man and woman. There really is no right and wrong answer. It is how you feel justice should be carried out.
Yes, all the stories are true except for the first one. It makes it funner since I can reveal the verdict. The verdict for the egg story...
The couple just had to pay $7,000 in damages. They also had to issue a public apology.
Most of you pretty much got it right. I think that was an easy one. Here is the next story...
Two navy men decided to "heat" things up on their battleship. They ordered the engineers to build a sauna next to the engine room. The sauna did not last very long. It caught fire most likely from the heat coming from the engine room. This caused thousands of dollars of damage to the battleship. Should the two navy men be jailed and/or fined? Should the engineers be jailed and/or fined? You be the judge.
why would someone sick a pit bull at someone else unless they were sure that person is dangerous. Anyway aren't pit bulls banned from most places because they are dangerous animals?
It all depens if he's lying! Althought he would probably be charged with public intoxication, and carrying a dangerous weapon, depending on how large the knife is. But, yet, why would he be carring a knife and laughing, was i an evil laugh, or a playful laugh?
