Further Proof That People Are Stupid, Casey Anthony Found Not Guilty

I remember watching in horror as the O.J. Simpson verdict was read. Not guilty. How could 12 people believe that O.J. didn't kill his ex-wife and her boyfriend? DNA, circumstantial, and every other kind of evidence pointed directly to it. I could see there being a person or two that didn't believe he did it. I could even see that, in the aftermath of the Rodney King row, that there were African-Americans unwilling of convicting O.J. But that aside, how could 12 people all be so dumb?

So here we are, nearly 16 years later, and yet another high profile trial ends in a completely inconceivable "not guilty" verdict. Anyone with half a brain could see that Casey Anthony is at least responsible for the death of her daughter, Caylee. Yet 12 people are too dumb to see what is so evident.

I have some questions for these 12 dimwits:

• How do you explain Casey Anthony's behavior in days following her daughter's "disappearance"?
• How do you explain Casey Anthony's lies to her parents about her daughter's where-abouts in days following her disappearance?
• How do you explain Casey Anthony's complete lack of grief at the supposed disappearance of her daughter, and for showing no remorse at the discovery of her body?
• How do you explain Casey Anthony looking up chloroform, and methods of killing someone, on the family PC?
• How do you explain her ditching her car due to the smell of "human decomposition"?
• How do you explain Casey Anthony, well into the trial, filing a motion trying to be declared incompetent to stand trial?

I'd love for the jurors to explain all this to me. Granted, I understand, they've been sequestered for weeks. But still, these are questions that are still unanswered. How any rational person could allow a monster like Casey Anthony to walk away, completely scot free, is beyond me.

Another blow was struck this afternoon for mass stupidity in our society. Congratulations to you 12 complete morons.
