I’m a real advocate of the judicial system, I don’t always agree with their verdicts, I will however never question the outcome. It’s the system we have and at the moment it’s the best system out their. In this case, like the one I sat on the jury, the defense seems to have played down the gang thing, making it look like people in an afternoon BBQ…

Sounds like everyone in attendance at that party could do better, including with whom they make friends.
