How is it that a terrorist who has confessed to wanting to run a plane into the White House is still on trial, but a soldier who used a dog to get a terrorist to confess and save millions of possible lives is already convicted? Am I the only one who thinks that the American justice system is a little messed up?

Originally posted by IorekYes. Having a justice system based on rules of evidence and judicial procedures is pretty messed up. It certainly does not reflect any notion of "freedom" (which, BTW, is not free).

Read any of the "free thinkers" here at rhp. If that doesn't explain it, nothing can. Everything is relative. Truth is just something that we argue about in a "logical" way. Truth is not something real, so don't worry about it. It's the "process" that counts. Stinkin' lawyers getting killers off is what matters. Marching with cute little candles is what matters. Lining up to support killers is what matters. Sending their best and brightest to defend Saddam is what matters.
Hope that helps.

Gosh, I thought the guy with the dog was just a masochistic grunt who got his jollies off of torturing people. But you're saying he saved millions of lives? All those people torturing prisoners were freaking heroes! PURE GENIUS!! Makes me proud to be an american, land of the free baby.
The only thing really being debated about Moussaoui is whether or not they're going to kill him for his crimes. Sorry to say many key people in the Bush administration have provided the best defense he could have ever come up with.

You are so caught up in self hate and self loathing that i can't help but admit that you probably have a point. You know youself best. If you hate yourself as badly as you seem to... then who am I to talk you into the notion that we live in the best damn nation on earth?
Go outside and kick a dog. It'll make you feel even worse about yourself.

And? I am on the wagon since last July. If you need a drink, feel free. If you can find a really ugly girl that doesn't mind being felt.
Lol
