Crime and Punishment

Everyday, District Attorneys and Prosecutors choose what cases to try and which to deny based on their own political interests

Defense Attorneys scramble to defend scumbags as long as the fee is big or the media coverage is widespread.

Judges worry about process and bar evidence that would assure that the guilty are punished while aspiring to appellate and circuit benches, where they can usurp the power of the legislature to impose their political will.

So Scooter Libby is under indictment for mistating some detail in his thinly parsed, grand jury testimony.

But millions of looters that have entered the country illegally, perpetrated identity crimes, drive without proper license and insurance, commit ballot fraud and evade taxes are not even blinked at by our leaders.

To quote a line from the REM song Bad Day: "I'm tired of being jerked around."

The day I find myself in legal jeopardy, I will mount a defense that the Equal Protections Clause in the US Constitution prevents the government from selectively determining that it will prosecute citizens but not prosecute illegal aliens.

Man! I want something done about this.
