Oregon Rep. Mike Nearman booted from House for planning armed protest. | Christian Forums
we are talking about an Oregon state representative who got caught helping protestors invade the Oregon Capitol. And he has been tried by his colleagues and rejected from their legislature.
Do you apply this to rights we are supposed to have? Do you mean our rights are a certain way in a legal proceeding, but do not have to be that way for other things?
For example, would it be ethically and morally ok to not presume a person innocent during a congressional hearing because it is not a law of court proceeding?

I have not read what he has to say to speak for himself.
If we go by the Constitution, an accused person gets to represent himself or herself, I think.
So, what does he have to say about it? I intend to try to read something about this, right now.
Ok, thank you. As part of dealing with the question of this thread, I'd appreciate it if you share how you apply this.First of all, this was a state congressional hearing, not a court of law.
