Despite a judicial system that ferociously resists attempts to exonerate the wrongly convicted, the numbers of such exonerated prisoners continue to increase. That the administration of capital punishment in the U.S. is riddled with racism and class bias is incontestable. That the police extract false confessions and prosectuors withhold exculpatory evidence has been proven time and again.
You nailed it pal.
Justice in this country is only guaranteed to those who can afford the most influential lawyers - and those celebrity bastards get more than justice - they get deferential treatment. OJ and Michael Jackson are prime examples.
What's left to respect in the American justice system?
Certainly not enough credibility to permit any of those legal asswipes the right to determine life and death for anyone else.
