As a police officer, I see this kind of thing all the time in court. America does not care about victims. Get it out of your head that we do. We care about the rights of the accused murderers, rapists, assaulters, robbers, and abusers that we call neighbor. This is just another story of how a "wrongfully accused" man is punished for a crime of which he was found guilty.



FYI: guilty beyond a reasonable doubt means that approximately 98% of the population believes that you are guilty of a crime. The 2% (who apparently are in power) want to protect the guilty's rights.



This whole deal stinks.

O.K., this is a nethercrat's viewpoint. Liberals care about the accused and want to see their rights protected. I think I would like my own rights protected if I were accused of a heinous crime. They also tend to be biased to a socialist environment. (Read between the lines of the Democratic party's manifesto and show some intelligence when you do so.)



Conversely, conservatives would rather see justice in terms of a punishment dealt more severely and with fewer loopholes to allow a truly guilty person to walk free. Reactionaries among this bunch believe in survival of the fittest. Defend yourself or starve. (See above non-PC statement about the Democratic party and now apply it to the Republican party.)



If any of this offends you, grow up and accept your shortcomings.
