| When governments are corrupt (a given), the public (poor masses) ALWAYS pays.
It's the best mankind, with its hero-mania/worship, can do.
If the judicial system wasn't horrendously corrupt, this poor man would have never gone to prison for a crime BOTH the prosecutors AND the defense KNEW he didn't commit.
The only other scenario possible is that the man willingly played the patsy (fall guy) for monetary gain (it happens more than you would care to believe).
Do a separate debate on the integrity of our judicial system and be astounded at all of the horror stories that you will hear (and this just from the lucky ones, the really poor unfortunates will never be able to tell their story at a site like this).
My faith is stirred but never shaken.
I'm the proof that evolution works...
You're the proof that it doesn't.
If I had a button, I'd push it!
Can I push yours? |
