Here’s a good recap of what’s emerged and the significance of that news by Nate & friends – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJTYuIpKRZo&t=566s

This travesty is brought to you by Democrats, who have made creating racial strife in the US their core political strategy. May they rot in hell.

My two female law classmates who were judges were tough. One sentenced to death some bank robbers and murderers. Affirmed on appeal.

My point is that the Left is so out of control today with physical intimidation that on certain cases I can see a judge caving or rationalizing a decision. I really think that conservatives SCOTUS Justices (and their families) will be under threat if the abortion cases don’t go the way the Left wants. If I was ACB, I don’t know how I would rule as she as a young family.

This is all part of the lawlessness that the Left practices these days. The Floyd riots certainly intimidated many judges and SCOTUS.

Heck, there was a mob outside the courthouse when the Chauvin verdict was announced. That jury would have been lynched if they found him not guilty. That’s why I thought that case should have been tried in Duluth and in the dead of winter.

We’ve reached a new low. We see that with open talk by the Left of packing SCOTUS. Decide cases our way. Or else!

Potter’s case is tragic in its inherent unfairness and in its institutionalized abuse of The Law and its tenets – ain’t the first time. Potter is really a victim of her professional culture. Police culture has too often made these professionals into pension hogs that serve The Powers that Be regardless of their oaths and regardless of their duty to uphold the law and keep the peace. Who punishes the Punishers?

In this Potter case, if this Judge normally denies bail after guilty convictions regardless of appeal; then I agree with the statement I heard from the Judge. There is no reason at this point to treat Potter different than anyone else. The jury said she was guilty and her apprehension with denial of bail would be consistent with this Judge’s opinion of justice. However, if this Judge behavior was different (for whatever reason), then a pox on their legal house.

A related issue to Steve and Cornhead are recent attempts by media politicos to convince medical personal to treat people by vaccination status rather then follow traditional triage methods. You don’t want medical people making moral judgements prior to determining medical care. It has happened in the past and the results are repugnant.

Every lawsuit –civil or criminal– is a deadly serious piece of business for those directly involved: somebody may win, but net of legal fees and lost peace of mind or reputation, very few do. And always, always, somebody loses. Pay the damages, go to jail, whatever.

But every lawsuit is also larger than itself. It is a little acting-out of the Play of Justice for every one of us both as precedent and as a direct lesson and warning if we choose to watch.

And watching the Potter prosecution and conviction, what I see is utterly depressing. Each of us can imagine ourselves in Kim Potter’s situation –as Daunte Wright struggled to escape, and then again as she struggled against the prosecution. Each of us can look at how she was treated, and imagine ourselves in a similar plight.

And, people, I have to tell you, I don’t like our odds. This feels just so wrong.
