Hold rogue judges & DAs criminally accountable

If you or I break the law, or make some poor judgment that results in someone else suffering substantial bodily harm or financial loss, we will be held accountable. No question about it, otherwise good people who make that once-in-a-lifetime bad choice or dumb mistake are grist for the criminal justice mill (even if habitual lawbreakers are strangely not treated so). The American justice system is set up to treat everyone the same, regardless of station in life or wealth, but it is being failed deliberately, with huge far-reaching results, by a small but effective group of rogue judges and DAs.

Accountability for one’s actions is a fundamental tenet of American law. Both for people who directly cross a line and break a law, and for those who fail in some key duty to prevent real harm from happening.

It is time to extend this same kind of direct criminal accountability to rogue, lawless judges and District Attorneys, as well.

Last year two parents were criminally charged because their teenage son went on a shooting rampage, and they did nothing to stop him or warn anyone beforehand. He lived at home with his parents, and they knew he had access to firearms. Despite directly knowing that he was having mental health issues (something common to teenagers everywhere to one degree or another), they were so disinterested, and so disconnected from him, and disconnected from the potential he held in his hands to do great harm to other people, that they did not spend any time monitoring him. Even when he had direct access to firearms.

These parents were held accountable for their failure, even if they did not directly act in a way that violated the law. They also failed to act to prevent something illegal from happening. Something they had every expectation of knowing could happen.

Rogue police officers are eventually held accountable by the criminal justice system, even if it seems that too much time passes between their lawbreaking and their eventual appearance in court as a defendant. Despite wearing a gun and a badge and being the cutting edge and ultimate image The Law and of law enforcement, cops who cross the line will almost always do the time.

Rogue lawmakers are sometimes held accountable for breaking the law, probably not enough, but it does happen here in America. Former congressman, now-senator from California, Adam Schiff, is under investigation for mortgage fraud. So is New York Attoney General Letitia James. Both cases look open-and-shut from the documents available on the Internet. Immediate past US Senator from New Jersey, Bob Menendez, is now in jail for bribery; the actual gold bars he took from Egypt were sewn up inside his clothing!

So what is the deal with these rogue judges and DAs across America, who deliberately flout the law and common sense, by releasing dangerous felons right back onto the street after their arrest? Or under-charging them? Why aren’t these officers of the court held to the same standard all the rest of us are held to?

They act as if they are above the law, with no consequences for the consequences of their terrible decisions.

If there is one prime example of these lawless judges and DAs putting society at grave risk, there are a thousand examples: Illegal immigrants arrested for rape, murder, DUI homicide, burglary, child molestation, all released right back onto the street with either no bail or crazy low bail. Despite being dangerous felons, who usually do go right back to committing more felonies and ruining innocent people’s lives forever, rogue judges and DAs keep letting them out of the criminal justice system on a revolving door.

Why rogue judges and DAs behave lawlessly is a whole other discussion, but it comes down to a belief in warped “social justice.” Whenever you see the word social added to the word justice, you are guaranteed to get everything and anything but actual justice. It is an evil cultural Marxism thing, very popular now with one American political party.

In fact, “social justice” means just one thing: Gross injustice committed at enormous cost and at industrial scale against innocent Americans.

Lawless DAs and judges motivated by social justice ideas see everyone else who is not white skinned as a supposed “victim”, and therefore deserving of not being held accountable for their actions, no matter how heinous and illegal. And so the rest of us innocent people must suffer terribly in order for “social justice” to be served. And suffer again and again and again as lawbreakers from around the world moved illegally to America to continue breaking the law here without accountability, not to mention our own home-grown street thugs and community organized terrorists.

Lots of innocent Americans have lost their money, died violently, or been permanently maimed from this social justice nonsense.

Lots of children have been sexually molested or raped because of this social justice crap.

It is time to start holding these rogue judges and DAs directly accountable for the lawlessness, criminality, and mayhem they have unleashed upon us. Nothing excuses the crimes being perpetrated against Americans from these judges and DAs.

No amount of professional discretion allows one person to both lawlessly destroy innocent people and up-end a well ordered society, while simultaneously hiding behind the law.

This catch-and-release woke law enforcement is a failure to fulfill one’s duty of office, it is not a matter of what you professionally believe. The law has certain basic expectations, and every single woke DA and judge is not meeting them by a mile.

If citizen voters and our elected officials are so weak that we lack the political willpower to remove rogue and lawless judges and DAs from office through the political process, such as impeachment, then the criminal justice system must be invoked. It is time for bad judges and DAs to themselves be criminally charged and prosecuted for their misdeeds.

When a judge releases a known felon right back into the community after being arrested, without any consequences, then they have every reason to expect that felon to continue on being felonious, and victimizing innocent Americans. Just like the parents of emotionally unstable kids who take family guns to school and shoot people, that judge must be charged criminally and put on trial for whatever mayhem results.

We, The People just cannot put up with this criminal behavior hiding behind somber black robes any longer.

 

 

Pennsylvania Society: If not then, why now?

Pennsylvania Society: Great idea, wrong time, wrong place

Every year in early December, Pennsylvania’s glitterati and politicos hobnob in Manhattan.

This gathering is known as the Pennsylvania Society, and it’s mostly invitation – only, or you can pay big bucks to throw your own event.

As fun and as useful as this gathering is, and yes, a lot of political sounding boards get twanged, plucked, drummed, and thumped here, it is still at the wrong time and the wrong place.

If you’re a Pennsylvanian, by God, you’re out deer hunting the second week of December. You’ve got no time for more chit-chat in black tie and bow tie inside yet another building (and with due respect to those people who spend their time indoors: Get outside. It’ll do you and everyone else a world of good). You’d prefer to be stalking some steep mountain ledge or sitting overlooking an oak flat, waiting for a deer to jump up or stroll through.

And Manhattan at Christmas time is great. Our family goes every year. Our kids have been raised on Fifth Avenue window shopping and everything that goes with it. Heck, movies have been made about this, it’s so special. It’s a fantastic time for anyone, and if the gathering was fit in to that experience, it’d make sense.

But that best time is at Christmas time. The week before and the week after. Not weeks before. So the Pennsylvania Society is missing the boat there, too, with timing that just doesn’t make sense.

But more to the point, aren’t Philadelphia and Pittsburgh pretty great cities, too? Why can’t we keep the Pennsylvania Society in Pennsylvania? Rotate it around the state, or at least switch between east and west.

I know the folks who really made the Pennsylvania Society take off, and I’m not picking on them. They’re good people, with great ideas. This is just a question of timing, if not venue. And if the venue stays, then change the timing, so our politicians conduct their off-line business in the atmosphere of holiday cheer, giving, forgiveness, and merriment.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

How the Left did once and would again gain control of a nation

Plenty of conservatives have a bit o’ swagger, because they have the guns and the liberals do not.

True enough.

In a fight for America, our side has the civilian firepower, no question.

But what if the liberals gained enough control of enough of the military and local police to gain control of enough American territory that they could do as they needed with their enemies (to borrow a word from Barack Hussein Obama)?

Don’t they have that kind of infrastructure, already, if we imagine what a civil war in America looked like once, and could look like again; how certain regions and states would be drawn up?

And it’s not like conservatives have a standing army.  We are individuals, living in homes, separated from a concentration of power.  Few of us belong to militias, much less shooting clubs or hunting clubs.

As individuals, we are sitting ducks.  It is easy for even a weak government to take, capture, and whisk away individuals, to control individuals, to disappear individuals.  Only together, acting as groups, can conservatives and patriots represent any formidable force to be reckoned with.

If you want to see how a country can be lost, because good men, good people, good individuals, have a sense of honor and duty to their nation that is stronger than their will to survive with a new identity, an identity detached from the nation they once knew, then watch this movie, below.  The last 15 minutes spell out the kind of official coercive force that Liberals have always used and still covet today, because they are so “right.”

This movie below is a true story about how the Soviet Russians murdered the cream of Polish society, leaving the Polish people rudderless, leaderless, and easier to rule with a Liberal iron fist.  The Soviets were the liberals of their day; you know, doing great things for everyone: Free cars, free houses, free food, free healthcare.  They had it all!  Soviet Russia was a real paradise…<sarcasm>…  You know, the kind of “paradise” that Obama is building here in America, with the help of his coercive IRS and various federal agencies.

Watch “Katyn.”

UPDATE: No doubt that some readers will outright dismiss these concerns.  If you want to see a real-life, current example of how each patriot or conservative activist could be ‘taken out of circulation” by a lawless government using federal, state, and local law enforcement people, read this article about how in the middle of the day a military helicopter, a dozen cars, and swarms of SWAT officers descended on a school soccer field in a town of 850 people in rural Illinois. Their goal: One house, three miles away.  Overkill, anyone?

 

Challenging modern sensibilities

Yesterday, the distant father of one of our bear hunters texted his cell phone, urging him to retreat from the cold descending upon central Pennsylvania.

“Too cold! Go home!” read the text, which included several other adjectives supposedly describing hunting conditions.

The dad is not a hunter. He’s a very nice man, a hard worker, a veteran of Vietnam War infantry battles that earned him two Purple Heart medals. He’s no wimp. He is, however, a member of a materially comfortable society that increasingly believes food comes from the market, heat from the switch, and clothes from China.

Luxury is the standard for most Americans. By international standards, our ubiquitous cell phones, big screen televisions, cars, and expensive clothes are unimaginable expenses in days filled with constant quests for food and shelter around the planet.

Hunting for us makes us human, and quintessentially American. Hunting connects us to a human tradition predating anything surrounding Americans today. Cold weather is part and parcel of hunting. It challenges our artificially padded modern sensibilities for a few days, something that everyone needs. Couch potato nation, arise!
