I am talking about how only 23% of Americans trust the justice system to do things right....more people would turn family over to the justice system if they had confidence that the justice system would dispense justice...you know....its day job.

Americans' Confidence in Institutions Stays Low

I mean, if you want to go there, then I will ask you two questions. 1) What causes Americans' distrust of their law enforcement bodies? 2) How can we improve the trust relationship between law enforcers and the public?

I wont go too far into details, but My sister gained custody of his children, and he spent 8 mos ( out of 11 ) in the county lock up.

Not sure where he is now, but his kids are safe and will graduate soon.

Congratulations for taking a stand. I know it was difficult.

Trust has been going down for decades as the America systems have declined, to include most especially those in Washington....regardless of what letter elected officials have sported after their names...The Democrats have not saved us from this failure, nor have they often tried, and parading them out as The Good Guys after that BS they just pulled with Clinton Corp as with as bad as the quality of work was under Obama and with as much as they have run themselves out of power over the last decade by shear incompetence makes you out as not serious.

Did I mention Democrats? Nope, you did, but now that you have, let it be known that, for the past thirty years, the Democrats have been doing nothing but appeasing the Republicans, trying to be "Fat-Free Diet Republican-Lite", and the more they appease the Republicans, the worse it gets, the worse they get and the worse the Republicans treat them.

That's what happens when your opposition party starts to think it's a good idea to ape the party that makes its bones by tearing down our institutions.

And you already knew that I held those views, so I am calling you out on your selective amnesia.

Americans lack trust because our systems suck, because the Intelligentsia have failed...Understanding the problem is first stem to solving it, and you will not get there by being obsessed with Russian shenanigans, which is mostly silly and non consequential.....and a last ditch effort by those who failed to explain away their failure in such a way that does not involve the people figuring out that they have failed.

I am here to tell the truth.

Then you need to tell, and absorb, the whole truth, not just the part that fits your partisan perspective.

The point sir, the point that you still dont get because the con worked so good on you, is that they all suck.

And ****ed in the head.

WE ARE ALL

I've mentioned this in a couple of the threads today on the FL school shooting.

The comments in his journal are really good confirmation that we know alot about what's going on in their heads...(and I read nothing surprising)...but not the 'why.'

Ya, that guy in Vegas very well might be their hero....and he was stone cold sober when he did it too....

Why is this happening, forget the guns for a moment..the tool used....why do people want to hurt us so?

I cant give such POSs any validation that they have a rational or justifiable reason for their actions.

There are plenty of people who manage to deal with their 'feelings' in a more civilized manner. Or at least in ways that dont harm others.

So you tell me:

And some people have no grasp on history, among so many other things.


Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
QUOTATION: The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.

Her grandson will hopefully get the help he needs and grandma should be joyed by that. She probably saved his life either by suicide, cop shooting, or life imprisonment. I cannot imagine what she would feel bad about.

Imagine a justice system where 18 women could all accuse a man of sexual assault, he could brag about committing the crime and then become president because of people like you who refuse to demand justice for those women. Sigh..
 
We're going a very scary road, here.

That's an interesting counter-point, that may have merit.
