Let’s get rid of the judicial system!
Note: I’ve added a new section! A "politics" section will contain all my political editorials. Please refer to the disclaimer.
About a month or so ago, Michael Vick, Atlanta Falcons Quarterback and Virginia Tech alum, pleaded guilty to federal felony charges related to his dog-fighting ring. I’m not a pro-football guy. Heck, I only watch my Terps play, and even then, I don’t even know the players! When Vick was brought in for arraignment, there was a huge group of protesters outside the U.S. District Court, condemning him! Here are some pictures, in case you don’t remember:
It’s great to see that PETA unconditionally trusts the police department as well as the government. I’m actually encouraged that they believe that the police has done such a great job with the investigation that no public review is necessary.
In fact, I think we should get behind this. I propose that we completely get rid of the judicial system here in America. Yes, that’s right. Think of how much time and money we’ll save by simply allowing public opinion dictate the punishment of everyone and anyone that is charged! Seriously, it’s worked for several teachers that have been accused of raping their students.
In fact, in New York, there was a custodian accused of raping an 8 year old girl. He was ostracized by the public. The District Attorney’s eventually dropped the charges. Why? The DA said, "Oh, we simply got the wrong guy." But had we gotten rid of the judicial system, we could have gotten rid of this sick pedophile.
Call your senators, your congressmen, your delegates, all your elected officials. Tell them that you want them to pass a constitutional amendment abolishing the fair trail process in place of a trail by public opinion.
