JUSTICE vs VIGILANTEISM
The American Justice System provides two options for the outcome of a criminal case. The accused is either guilty or not guilty. However, There is a growing trend among prosecutors and the media to adopt a third option; That being ” To Appease the Public”.
What this means is this, The accused is probably innocent but because of the public interest and the media’s influence, we feel the need to put the person in prison in order to look good in the eyes of the public and to avoid criticism from the media.
The problem with this lunacy is this, When guilt or innocence is proven justice is served. When ” To Appease the Public” is envoked we have vigilanteism.
The proponents of this idiocy don’t seem to understand, THIS IS AMERICA, WE DO NOT PUT PEOPLE IN PRISON ” TO APPEASE THE PUBLIC”. WE PUT PEOPLE IN PRISON WHEN GUILT IS ESTABLISHED! Anything less than that usurps the constitution and opens the door for kaos and anarchy!

Second, and more importantly, we must never forget those whose lives were lost. We must continue to honor their memorys’ and lives forever. The […]
Democrats and the war in Iraq
I recently watched one of the networks morning news shows and watched as former Presidential candidate John Kerry once again showed why he lost the election. I listened to him say that what the democrats in congress wanted was an “estimated” withdrawal time for american troops in Irag. Yet, we have all heard the media […]
Gas Prices
I recently watched the reprodcast of the House and Senate heairngs on price goughing by the major oil companies. I must admit I was not at all impressed by our “public servants”. We all know big oil showed big profits for the last quarter. No doubt SOME of these profits came from the rise ing […]

Rev. Jesse Jackson
The ridiculous item of the day posted on the O’rielly Factor yesterday was a story about Jesse Jackson leading a bus trip to New Orleans in search of answers concerning jobs. A noble cause to be sure, however, the people with the good reverend were not from New Orleans, they were from Mobile and I […]
Congressional Hearings on Sports Drug Use (steroids)
About a week ago we had yet another round of hearings regarding the use of steroids in pro sports. My question is this: How can the American public stand for such an obvious misuse of taxpayer monies? We are seeing a group of politicians who can’t keep their own conduct above board, how can we […]
