FOR OUR INNOCENT CHILDREN
by: Richard Asadoorian

What happened to this country's values? God and the Constitution were something worth dying for. It was PRINCIPLES of Fairness, Liberty, Justice, and Honesty that we fought for. And the Government was supposed to be ruled "by the people" "for the people." It WAS considered: "Better that 10 criminals go free than to allow 1 innocent citizen convicted." It used to be "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt!" NO MORE!

Now its 'CHEAP GOVERNMENT'! They won't pay for investigations and evidence to help defense (the rule). Yet, it'll spend $100,000+ to investigate, prosecute, and try most people and ten MILLION on just one to keep him in jail! Not including BILLIONS to build their prisons. It's now just a business for Government people to get rich, at the expense of the poor.

This means THEY DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE INNOCENT! They target the poor and most defenseless. They're bias, PRESUME guilt, fabricate incriminating evidence, won't let you get, or show defense evidence, have a capable, unbiased lawyer, To create AN ILLUSION of guilt.

Lawyers need a lot of money, but there's a lot of competition: 3/4 of ALL LAWYERS in the world are in the U.S.! "The rich get richer and the poor poorer," and imprisoned. 1% of the super Rich own 1/2 of the wealth in the U.S.! 5% own 95% of the U.S. wealth! That means 95% of you people are fighting for a miserable 5% that's left. The diversity between the rich and poor is greater than any time in history.

The results of this are MORE PEOPLE PER CAPITA ARE IN PRISON IN THE U.S. THAN ELSEWHERE! And each is serving MORE TIME in America! But if you're a billionaire you go free.

Thus we're becoming an UNJUST nation where the rich oppress the poor (History repeats itself). BEWARE! Stand up and do something about it WHILE YOU STILL CAN! If not for me, for yourself, or at least FOR OUR INNOCENT CHILDREN that will have to live here.
