"Nobody is actually guilt of anything until the courts say so."
I hate to pick nits here, but it's really an important point. The word "until" should actually be "unless" in the above quote. "Until" implies that guilt is already determined and one need merely wait for time to pass to have that declared. "Unless" leaves the question of guilt undecided, which *should* be the case in our system of jurisprudence.
It is only a more natural expression because *you* happen to be more used to referring to a trademark of the Microsoft Corporation than using the proper term. Using incorrect terminology just assists those wishing to create their alternative view of the world. Read some George Orwell and be happy.:-)
