As a young boy in Mississippi, I witnessed some Judges, law enforcement, and money were closely tied together. The idea that dishonest people rule us, the people, was shattered at an early age. Cash seemed to be king in that time frame. For today’s crooks, this would have been chicken feed. The idea is that the scales of justice should be equal and she should be blind, but it seems that not the truth.
Money being stolen earmarked to go to the poor, whatever amount I have heard, over 90 million to 20 million. I honestly can’t find the exact amount that was stolen. I did mention to a politician friend of mine that if it were stolen by the poor from the rich, heads would have been rolling. Heaven and earth would be moved to have every last character in jail. The powerful can change investigators and slow the investigation down to a crawl. Time s always the friend to the rich and powerful.( but it never protects them later in life)
Guilty until proven innocent seems to be the case anymore; just mentioning that you have done something brings guilt. Trump’s many attacks and endless accusations prove that the nation has turned the corner into a nation of fools. We, the people I have watched, as illegal immigration is no longer illegal but is seen as a joke. Criminals are being released by DAs that have committed horrible crimes, and prisons are; releasing prisoners that will rob and kill again. We don’t have a crime problem. We have a leadership problem.
WE need a new law that if attack by a criminal or being robbed, the attacker can be made to meet their maker. The stupidity that the victims need to accept the responsibility of being attacked.
