Just because sometimes rights are not accorded to certain individuals neither makes it right nor does it diminish expectations of availing of those rights. If non-American individuals doesn't get the legal rights accorded to them by the Constitution, then I squarely blame the attorneys who aren't trying hard enough. Mind you, I say this considering the Patriot Act is not invoked. sunshine, I guess it is time to go back to school to be aware of individual rights; the Constitution is quite clear about that.

To think that you enjoy or will enjoy equal rights on american soil if faced in a legal battle (especially where cops are involved). Example-Abhijit Mahato @Duke. And I don't protect rights of any individual. I protect rights of multinational corporations. Patrix, you got to be kidding yourself!!

Then I guess in not protecting the rights of any individual let alone an Indian, you aren't doing your job. Unless the Patriot Act is invoked, everyone on American soil enjoys equal rights. sunshine, you are an attorney?

Any Indian must be completely naive to think that his rights will be protected simply because he is in the US of A. I mean completely NAIVE. I am an attorney practising in NC for the last 6 years.

But as you said, I like it that they keep the background stories to the minimum and focus on the case at hand. gawker, I prefer the original series as well although I’m getting more interested in the Goren character now although it is quite different from the snarky pun-filled character played by the late Jerry Orbach.

Each episode could be a university level Law and Order 101 lecture for how focused it is on the criminal and legal issues of the case. Actually I check each episode and usually they divide the time equally between law and order, giving half an hour for each. I also love the gallows humor in the series. I miss Jerry Orbach though. The series hasn't been the same after his death. yes. i am a law and order junkie also. just cant get enough of it. although i stick strictly to the original series. just couldnt get into the offshoots. i love how it is just matter-of-fact and businesslike. no emo nonsense, we don’t get to know anything about the personal lives of the characters and we are fine with it.
