Viking Persuasive Speech
Hello, fellow citizens of Scandinavia! We have gathered today to discuss the fate of a Viking who committed a serious crime. Kyle Qi, a raiding Viking, has committed a serious crime. One that is unacceptable! Outrageous! He has pillaged innocent civilians! The “thing” will now start the trial for this criminal. The law states that the “thing” must deal with any serious crimes, such as murder or theft. The punishment he is facing today is exile. But, we Vikings are a civilized group of people, so we will allow this man a fair trial. But before we get too into this, let’s talk a bit about me. My job as a law speaker is a very prestigious one. I have attended many trials throughout the years I have served my role in the community. I have

    The adversarial nature of formal conflict resolution upon which our common law system is based often neglects to provide American citizens with justice. Clearly justice can be defined in a list of different ways, and justice cannot be regarded as one definite, worldwide accepted ideal. For the purposes of this discussion, however, the function of criminal trials in the U.S. will be defined in the most simple of terms: the discovery of the truth in a given situation through due process of law, such that those who are guilty of crimes portrayed by arranged laws are punished through fines, imprisonment, and other established reprimands. This truth, however, is sometimes not reached in trials, and the adversarial system is often to blame for this failure. More specifically, it is the roll that attorneys play within this system in which it is the responsibility of these officials only to win cases with any means legally possible, not to aid the discovery of true facts that prevent the system’s ability to uncover the truth in matters. Thus, the adversarial roll of lawyers within the legal system hinders the pursuit of discovering who, in fact, is innocent, and who is guilty in legal disputes and trials, effectively impeding the system’s ability to achieve its purpose in the aforesaid…

    I spoke with authority as I reviewed the evidence. As I handed out the voting ballots, I realized that I had transformed from a nervous observer into a poised and confident leader. One last obstacle presented itself when one of the members got cold feet. “I can’t do it!” she said. “I can’t look him in the eye and find him guilty.” Eleven sets of anxious eyes glared at me as I put my hands on her slouching shoulders. The situation needed a remedy, and it was clear that I was in charge of providing it. I reminded her of the victims and of the trauma they had suffered. I recited the words of the judge’s instructions regarding our duty to justice and the law. None of us wanted to deliver this life-altering news. However, as her leader, I assured her that together we could find the strength to do…

    A lot can happen in six years. A man can lose sight of reality, and of who he is. A god can fall from grace, and be consumed by hatred. A world can find itself in peril, only to be saved by the unlikeliest of groups. A man can also find solace, and a new purpose. A god, redemption, family, and love. This is what happened a year after the Battle of New York, when the God of Mischief was taken back to Asgard, to be imprisoned and punished. Of course, nothing went as imagined, as Loki's punishment was far dire than any of the Avengers could have ever guessed.…

    It has been shown, therefore that Jonas attacker, depending on the extent of his crime could face imprisonment from six months up to life, under the Offence Against the Persons Act (1861).The Act is 152 years old, the non Fatal offences contained within it use archaic language and words of which modern understanding of them has changed since it was passed, such as assault and battery. The structure of the offences can also be criticised. There is no statutory definition of assault or battery and there are no clear boundaries between the offences which Jonas attacker could have committed. Similarly there is no clear boundary between ABH and GBH it is for the jury to decide what amounts to really serious harm and different juries will differ in their opinions. Non-fatal offences is an area of the law that has attracted much criticism and it is unanimously accepted that it is in need of reform. This could avoid absurd decisions within the courtroom, endless appeals and unjustified sentencing. In order for both Jonas and his attacker to have a fair trail, changes are necessary.…
