I read all her stuff. Sky has never threatened anyone.

She is too nice, even when disgusted.

Nice, Walter. You try the Foxtrot next, You are quite the dancer,

Having a gun is nothing, You don't know anything about combat. Plain and simple.

I doubt that you have ever been in a fight. I know you don't have one of these:


Keep talking though it's actually amusing.

Greco-Roman courts coalesced into the continental system, judgement by a panel of judges, not peers. the jury system is Germanic/Celtic. and was not supplanted by trial by combat, until Jesus the Peaceful showed up. if I have the energy, and root through my dusty tomes to find a great account of a pre-Christian Celtic trial, I will. much of what we deem Greco-Roman, is indeed Celtic in origin. that Mediterranean school of history is tainted; look north.
there you are wrong:

greek and roman juries were selected from the populace of eligible Demos (basically Voters) men who owned land, kept their arms and paid their taxes

"Holy Roman Empire" (thats 3 lies just in the name...) appointed "juries" of religious leaders and those the religious leaders thought "pious" enough to render whatever verdict the church demanded

germanic trials (angle, saxon, dane, teutonic etc...) were all based on the "Proof" by ordeal, combat or the testimony under oath (of the ruling class only) before the king or his thanes. most "Anglo Saxon" justice was left to the victim and his family, through the ancient rites of Lex Talionis and vendetta

Cetlic trials were much more complex, with the Filidh (something like a judge, a historian, and priest all rolled into one) offering judgements in disputes or in some cases the chiefs or kings would preside while the Filidhs and Druids advised on matters of law (which was also religion)

again, this is factual, jury trials as we know them did not reappear until the 12th century during the legal reforms of Henry Plantagenet
