My wife and I are expecting our bundle of joy in about four weeks - two weeks before finals. Oh how fun.
Luckily, the tough first eight weeks will be during my break

Practice exam writing. Look at old exams from your profs. You may know your law but if you cannot put it down in your "blue book" then you will be SOL.

Well, that just made my decision easier.
Has anyone used the flashcard software? Currently, I make my own flash cards but it takes me a long time to create. This software sounds like it would cut down on the time factor.

Current Law Students / Jackson Case

Wacko Jacko is not doing so good. He didn't score big point with the judge by showing up to the court room late. I think that this will have a big negative impact on the jury.

« on: March 11, 2005, 10:32:06 AM »To tell you the truth, I don't think your comments about gang-bangers were racist, that was the other guy who said that (lipper). What I couldn't get over (and responded to) was your assertion that since you were a minority talking about other minorities- your comments can't be racist - implying that you have to be in the majority population (in our case - white) in order to be a racist.
and about the "shut up already" comments, you need to check out the history before being all critical. jdmba2007 AKA JD2MBA AKA other names on other boards is a total troll who posts straight from his blog in order to get people to read his blog. His first posts were straight out ads - like "come read my stuff" and people gave him a hard time so he toned it down - but still all he is trying to do is divert attention into his forum by starting current event/controversial topid threads that he does not participate in after starting them. It gets really lame when someone starts all these topics that are like "I went to an interview today, I think I aced it because I answered all the questions properly when we talked about investment advice. Comments? www.jd2mba.etc.com" so I had to regulate, and LSD is a better place because of it.
peace
Good point about the racist comment. I still don't think I am racist. Maybe it was the way it was interpreted. I noticed that people make comments without backing it up.
As for shut up already - thanks for info. Being a newbie, I am not privy to this.
I still think the opinion is bad...

how are my comments racist? prove your point. if not, give your opinion on the supreme court ruling and stop placing lame comments.
as i mentioned earlier, i have seen tons of minorities go down the wrong path. now the consequences for their actions is minimized. gang members can have their members who are under 18 commit murder. these under age members will not get the death penalty in any circumstances.
you're an idiot to think that my comments are racist. you are on this board to place stupid comments like "shut up already." yeah, whatever...

how can i be racist if i an minority (mexican) talking about other minorities.
i see too many minorities fall into the "gang" glamour. if there are strict consequences for their actions, maybe a few "gang bangers" will think twice.

I think the opinion was crap.
I tend to agree with Scalia's dissent and how the majority's statistics don't make sense.
I also think that someone who is under 18 can form the sufficient intent for murder-one. I believe that it should be up to the states to determine if the minor has formed the intent to try him as an adult and for the death penalty.
Too many "gang bangers" who are under 18 will commit murder-one and will not suffer the consequences. Sure they will go prison for their actions, but prison is not bad for a "gang banger".
Just my thoughts.
