A Legal System Only a Mother Could Love

The only message we send when we allow those without souls to walk free is that we care more about them than we do about their innocent and inevitable victims. What is especially disgusting is that for each one of them, there are scores of lawyers eager to defend their right to walk amongst us. Why is it we don’t register these members of the bar as sex offenders? After all, they aid and abet criminals just as much as the guy driving the getaway car for bank robbers. I have always wondered how these legal eagles feel when at the end of the day they go home to their own children.

Before you rush forward to defend this cockeyed legal system, allow me to conclude with yet another example of this lunacy. I recall reading about a man who was found guilty of killing his young bride. The judge gave him six years-to-life. I ask you, what kind of sentence is that? What is the message? The killer gets a mere six years for cold-blooded murder, perhaps with time off for good behavior, but if he doesn’t make his bed or eat all his vegetables, he could rot in jail for the next sixty years?!
