Repeal "Fair Trial" - Federalist - 03-02-2008
Quote: Repeal "Fair trial"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #21
Proposed by: Jey
Description: UN Resolution #21: Fair trial (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: The General Assembly of the United Nations,
APPLAUDING the attempts of Resolution #21: "Fair trial" to bring about fair rights of the accused within the various judicial systems of member nations;
HOWEVER CONSIDERING Resolution #21's complete lack of any details concerning the concept of a fair trial, including relevant definitions and ingredients that traditionally constitute a fair trial, usually including: juror and/or judge impartiality, competency and neutrality, right to fair representation, right against intimidation, and right to counsel;
REGRETTING that without these understood characteristics of a fair trial in the text of the resolution, the term becomes ambiguous, defeating the overall purpose Resolution #21;
REPEALS Resolution #21: "Fair trial".

Heh, thank you.
Voting ends the day I leave so I hope I am not casting the vote...unfortunately I don't think we can even have a turnaround that fast. This would be the last proposal I could vote on for two weeks.
