8. It's a horrible commentary on our loss of a sense of justice and equity ..
... that anyone would suspect I'm not being grossly facetious. We imprison more of our people than any any nation on earth ... and the rabid "law and order" types still don't fucking have enough? Geeezuz!

If people had the slightest clue how imbecilic some of those "offenses" are - like 'statutory rape' against a boy with his underage girlfriend - I'd like to think their "lynch-mob" mentality might abate. I'd like to think so - but I don't.

That we waste our time on such bullshit and aren't storming the WHite House with tar and feathers show a total loss of any sense of proportions.
