I'm not voting for her. Not sure how you can end the for profit prison system when they're funding your campaign....
Our entire justice system is "for profit." It's ridiculous. How are you supposed to get a fair trial when the courts are out to make a buck?
That's easy to say. My buddy's wife cheated on him. When he found out, he called her up and said they needed to talk. She never went home. She went straight to the cops and said that he beats her. She was cheating with a guy we know who used to be a military cop. There wasn't one ounce of proof. Not a single person would back up her story, and her story changed repeatedly, so much so that the judge who was overseeing the restraining order called her out and denied her request. A bunch of people saw him the night it supposedly happened. The criminal court wouldn't allow anyone to present any evidence to support him. Neighbors, friends of the family, didn't matter. Not allowed. He had never been in trouble with the law, but he was found guilty of domestic violence and had to pay the court a bunch of money and take a bunch of classes. That was a few years ago. My friend is remarried, he owns a house now, he has a kid on the way, and he's much happier without that lying shrew. Law enforcement is about generating revenue these days.
He won in the end. He's now married to a nurse who pulls down 90-100k a year. He has a nice house. He's living the good life. Meanwhile, his ex is living in an apartment, alone, and single. The guy she was seeing left town to take a security job on a base back east (which he promptly lost because he was caught bringing a loaded weapon on base). One day their son will truly understand what his mom did and she'll lose him. He's 11 now.
You mean in your opinion? Unlike Hillary Biden, before he said no, was polling ahead of every republican candidate head to head.
I call it "the evil legal system." As for you lawyers on the board, you know in your heart that I'm right. But you can't talk about it. Your income depends upon your solidarity with the system. It has cost my family just about a million dollars. In police brutality threads, I try to mention the legal system, not just the police. The police are just the strong arms of the legal system. There are a lot more desksitters, lawyers, and social workers directing the police where to go, than there are police. Similarly, backstage stagehands outnumber the visible actors on a stage.
Well, you should have known that the white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone. barfo
These new parking meters are connected with sparky wires underground. How was I to know that my Canadian quarter would force an emergency funding city sales tax? Those old downtown Bellingham buildings needed to go anyway, so they should thank me.
I'd vote for a Clinton for one reason. If Chelsea ran and said she saw all the shady shit her parents did and that she would be an honest President. Otherwise I'd vote for the guy who helps me at Home Depot before I voted for another Bush or Clinton.
I'll be voting for Hillary, assuming she beats Bernie. The only Republican who comes close is Rand. Of course, I call President Roosevelt, Ted.
