You can pull exact lyrics from songs and use them in a completely different song as long as ALL the words aren't the same and the music itself is different. Something like 'smack my bitch up' you can include in your own original song where you say 'if dat hoe don't bring da dosh ima smack my bitch up'. The objection is that people can't sue over use of sampling of same words because language is common to all and only a direct composition of the same words in a long enough string would constitute infringement such as copying an entire verse or chorus or something. KZbin also does not care about copyright law, they strike down infringing shit upon request and by content ID TO PROTECT THEMSELVES FROM BEING SUED as per DMCA law. A platform has the responsibility to prevent user uploads from infringing on copyright law or THEY can be sued so youtube takes a proactive and paranoid approach to protect themselves. Also, the idea of 'fair use' is a legal argument that must be challenged in court, you can't simply claim to youtube that your 2 seconds of a song is not infringing because it's fair use, you would have to take the copyright holder to court and prove it in a court of law and only then would youtube reverse the decision.

Objection: Recently, Lizzo actually wound up in court over the opening line of her smash hit song, "Truth Hurts." The line, "I just took a DNA test, turns out I'm 100% dat bitch!" was inspired by a social media post from singer Mina Lioness using extremely similar wording, and this became a legal issue after Lizzo attempted to copyright the line for merchandising reasons. Lioness is now credited as a co-writer of the song. The Raisen brothers, a pair of audio mixers and record producers, also tried to claim authorship of the song. Their case was thrown out and Lizzo ultimately counter-sued them for harassment.

I was a member of a jury last week, managed to get selected for one of the 12, and volunteered to be jury foreperson. The first 4 of 5 charges were easy to rule on because the prosecution and witnesses addressed them, but one charge wasn't proved beyone a reasonable doubt for the majority of the jurors. After we'd spent 7 hours debating what the legal definition for physical injury considering the related meaning of "impaired physical condition" it occurred to me that the defense attorney used the Chewbacca defense in real life. He picked a few minor, easily explainable, and almost irrelevant things about witness testimony and kept repeating "It doesn't make sense" during his closing argument.

@GMF Moist leather gloves, that are supposed to be tight fitting in the first place, were kept in a Ziploc evidence bag. There was no possible way they would fit their original owner. That trial was a circus, no camera should ever been allowed inside. judge Ito was a joke, more concerned with looking good for the camera and what kind of book deal he could get out of it. Darden was an idiot, Marcia Clark was in the middle of her own divorce proceedings and was frequently late which made the jury hate her. That jury shouldn’t even have been trying to case it wasn’t even in the correct district they moved it to LA County just to make it easier for the media which was asinine because I completely change the jury pool and all of a sudden OJ gets a black jury including a bunch of women who spent their whole lives thinking he was a sex symbol. The prosecutors literally did everything wrong, they thought that women would be the best jurors because of the history of him abusing his wife when in fact the black women harbor resentment for the white wife and had no sympathy for her as a victim whatsoever. And this was before everybody on the planet knew about DNA evidence all the CSI shows didn’t exist so what seems completely obvious about of course it’s him the blood matches, flew right over the heads of the idiot jurors.

[@jefffawcett]

@Gerry C I'm sorry but that is the dumbest thing I've heard yet. There was an exact DNA blood match. There were footprints made by the Italian shoes OJ wore. There was his glove. There was the ridiculous claim that he just happened to break a glass and cut his hand that exact same night. Just think of that. In your entire life you might, once, cut your hand on a glass you break. We are supposed to believe that on this once in a lifetime night his ex-wife just happened to be murdered by a knife attack.

[@yourbarista4154]

The fact that you’re saying the “glove doesn’t fit the jury must acquit” is brilliant just goes to show that our system isn’t about justice. It’s about who can be the most clever for their client.

[@larrybaby9377]

I think you meant "isn't about justice." In reply, I would say you are overlooking a few things. 1. The great virtue of the system is that no one pretends justice can be magically dispensed from on high without the parties representing their own cases as best they can. 2. Parties are free to represent their case however they see fit, within the rules of court and the law. If unrepresented, and the matter has serious consequences, they will be given representatioin. (Contrary to popular opinion, such representation is usually competent and energetic.) This is the only way known to ensure that the relevant evidence is fully examined as the basis for thefactual scenario offered by either side. 3. Because parties can screw up in the presentation of their case, as the prosecution did in going for the demonstration with the glove in the OJ case, there are presumptions, and burdens of proof. In a criminal trial, there is a presumption of innocence. It's a big presumption. To overcome it, the prosecuition must meet a very high standard of proof, known as the burden of proof:. The criminal standard is that guilt must be proven beyond reasonable doubt. If they don't remove every and any reasonable doubt as to guilt, the defendant walks. Sure theprosecution can stuff it up, but they have the awesome power of the state behind them. they are well-resourced and well-qualified. Things go wrong sometimes, on either side. The point is, in the interests of JUSTICE, your primary concern (according to you), the presumption and the burden to be met protect the innocent. Generally, it could be argued that the adversarial system is a pure expression of individual freedom and liberty. The right to mount a defence, arguing a distinct version of the facts, goes back to the Athenian assembly, and probably further. There's nothing more fundamental in matters of thought and reason than that the contrary view needs consideration. Once you get alternate positions, it is unavoidable that skills in advocacy and human error come into play. Hence the presumption of innocence, and the burden of proof. It's all pretty obvious.

Wasn't the Chewbacca defense more of a satire on the Twinkie Defense in the Harvy Milk murder trial?

"OJ Simpson, for those of you who don't remember..." OH GOD I'M OLD

[@PanthereaLeonis]

Don't worry. It's also for those who are not from America, and have no reason to even know of OJ Simpson, apart from pop culture. But it feels more including to people who know, but don't actually remember, and those who are too young to actually remember, and those who have heard the story, but not quite understood it. Him explaining so that we don't have to ask and seem stupid is a very nice thing :P

This lawyer says he was in middle school during the trial. I was in college, now I feel really old. I'm going to sue this lawyer for making me feel bad.

[@aceofspades9503]

I was also in middle school. I remember the 8th graders got a TV wheeled into their class room to watch the verdict. Unfortunately I wasn't in 8th grade. Pity- I probably would have learned more if I had watched the trial in class.

[@RachelG1979]

I was in high school. Was more angry about it interrupting my soap operas for months and months.

[@maxhydekyle2425]

I learned everything I know about OJ from Dave Chappelle

Objection! 12:45 When Johnny Cockrin stated "The defense rests", he forgot that he was representing the plaintiff!

OBJECTION! Your honor, it was clearly stated by the reporter at 6:15 that the trial was in on it's 15th day, but at 7.30 your honor said that the trial was the next day, and gave the show an error for already jumping into the summation at the trials first day.

[@billcipher1425]

Hm a non-lawyer makes a objection

[@Abcwhatever]

@@billcipher1425 I doubt most people that is object are lawyers. Just people that don't understand why something is like that, a different opinion, or to point out mistakes

[@billcipher1425]

Why is Ryan Reynolds giving me a lecture on law

[@FromeFmAjayD]

🧐 Ryan Reynolds 🤣🤣🤣 ummm sure.

[@darkstorminc]

@Ralof Of Riverwood bubble boy?

[@johnpeters7073]

A Person He’s not. He’s giving you a lecture on law. Not legal school.

[@jamesfair9751]

Well if he was Ryan Reynolds at least he would be canukistan and it would sound right when he said down in the doobly doo.

[@ManUMinute]

It does not make sense!

“If you think my top is cute, you cannot execute” All this time I had no idea Rick and Morty were actually parodying something with that.

[@totalannihilation9065]

Matt and Trey are such great writers. How they get ideas to make South Park really blows my mind. They bring out such spark. I laughed through the whole thing.

[@wallaceshawn-zk8iw]

Trey only likes this episode, he hates the first 3 seasons. I think the first 5 seasons were awesome!

[@philcollins5457]

You know: I've got no idea how you ended up in my suggested feed, but I'm very happy you did. You're answering legal questions I never knew I had.

[@dupersuper1938]

They didn't start with closing arguments; the newscast said it was the 15th day of the trial.
