There is no such thing as Justice in the United States of America.
There is only political advantage.
Two cases currently in the news illustrate this fact beyond even a shadow of a doubt, the Trayvon Martin case and the ACA case before the Supreme Court.
In the Trayvon Martin case a teenage boy with precisely no political connections was murdered in cold blood. His murderer has political connections through his father who is a retired judge, much like Joran van der Sloot and his attorney father.
The police in the Trayvon Martin case obviously lied in their reports. There was no blood. There was no way Trayvon was on top of Zimmerman when Zimmerman shot him as there would have been blood all over Zimmerman. There was not. This was a coverup by police and the only logical conclusion was that political influence by Zimmerman's father insured the case would be ruined beyond any potential for prosecution.
At the end of the day, I am firmly convinced Zimmerman will end up getting away with murder for no other reason than political advantage.
In the ACA case before the Supreme court we have an even more clear example how the so-called "Justice System" has precisely nothing to do with justice and everything to do with politics and political advantage.
The ACA was crafted with nothing more than what Republicans have been proposing for decades. And yet, the radically rightwing Supreme Court is set to overturn the law simply because a Democratic President and a Democratic Congress passed the law. Had this been passed under George W. Bush with a Republican president, is there any doubt in anybody's mind that the law would be upheld?
Ever since December 12, 2000 when the Bush v. Gore decision was handed down, the so-called "Justice System" has no longer pretended to be anything other than purely political.
For more than two centuries, a confidence game has been played on the American public. That con has benefited a very few individuals in this country. This con had the 99% as the mark and no longer cares if the 99% knows it!
The bottom line in this country is you cannot trust the so-called "Justice System" any longer. The curtain has been drawn away and the political machinations behind the curtain have been laid bare. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz claimed to be the non-partisan arbiter in all disputes has been revealed for the huckster he is.
The courts are nothing more than a third leg of a corrupted political system, and the courts no longer care that you know the robed idiots are nothing more than politicians playing the game to take money from the 99% and insure it ends up in the hands of the 1%.
And that is why I say Justice my fat ass.
