BTW who gets to pick and choose. Who decides if it was a scam or for real?
When I pass judgment on what is right and wrong, I get to choose. When my judgment is ultimately questioned, God gets to choose.
I presume that your underlying point is that justice isn't what people should concern themselves with, but rather we should all just be happy to agree on a common form of decision making and then pretend that what results is justice.
The travesty is that there is nothing common about it. Because civil suits allow emotional pleas, you get emotional results. When a grifter sues a grocery store, it is almost guaranteed that the grocery store owner will not have any business owners on the jury. When there is a high likelihood that a different jury or judge would have resulted in a different ruling, then what we have is an arbitrary system, that we pretend is confined by law.
