Reply #33: I take issue with your fast and loose use of the word "Justice"

What we have is a legal system.

As for your other contentions, maybe if Mark Fuhrman had spent less time practicing racism, and brutalizing suspects, he could have spent more time being an good investigator. Maybe OJ would have been found guilty then. Think?

As for Scott Peterson... I have totally ignored that case on purpose. But let me guess, there is a uniformed cop involved with the bungling of the evidence?

While we are at it, lets just ignore all the library books, and the contelinpro type activities, and of course John Ashcroft.

How is that rooting out the systemic corruption is just about EVERY major cities police force thing going? I heard about one case where a lady complained about police brutality, and less than 24 hours later the cop she complained about murdered her.

Trial??? The only people who get a trial past the arraignment are the elite!

One third of people on Illinois death row were wrongly convicted?!?!

Don't even get me started on Texas and Florida.

Finally, why is it that the US has the highest incarceration rate in the world? Is it because we are more free than China or Soviet Russia?

I think you are still stuck in the fantasy world of your high school civics text book. The reality seems to be corruption and graft on every level of law enforcement. It runs so deep, that the CIA (fundamentally all cops) cant even properly determine if the WMD's existed at all. I can tell you what happened, they invented it when they were eating donuts rather than doing their jobs. This threat was invented in much the same way that "Seat belts as a primary crime" law were invented. They didn't have anything better to do.

Or how about that cop that lied in the Martha Stewart trial?

I could go on and on. There is not a single area of US government that is not being affected by police corruption.

Remember those two troopers that lied and later recanted about Clinton and Paula Jones?

You are wrong, it is your statement that is misguided and humorous. It doesn't even pass the smell test. Oh wait, that another name for when a cop decides he want to just shake someone down for no reason.
