From kangaroo to actual court?

This is a good thing. The court of public opinion was not an appropriate place to deal with this matter...
Two women have come forward to Toronto Police with allegations against Jian Ghomeshi, a police spokesperson said Friday night.
If Jian Ghomeshi is to be put on trial, let it be in a court of law, not the court of Jerry Springer...
There are no safeguards in that court, no testing of the evidence, no rules or boundaries.

As Abe Lincoln famously said, “There is no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law.”
Amen.
