I am getting so tatally sick of this blamestorming litigious society we have created for ourselves. When are people gunna wake up and realise that they are, and I mean ARE responsible for their own actions, and should stand accountable for them. THE GUILTY ARE GUILTY NOT VICTIMS. Why should we be forced to be so vigilant in covering our backs legally, to protect ourselves from other peoples stupid behaviour.

I'm sure you could substitute a tall building for a bridge.

That is the biggest problem with our society today, we don't take responsibility for our actions. These people commit crimes, then want to blame their moms, or their dads, cause they didn't love them enough, or were abused while growing up. they want to blame everyone and everything except the one person who committed the crime, Themselves.\n\nThey already have more rights than their victims so why don't we just send them to an island someplace, serve alcohol 24/7 with topless waitress's, and let them live the life of luxury. I think we need to bring back the chain gangs and make these people want to stay out prison.

OK, I can understand what you are trying to say. But you must look at it much differently than you are looking at it. Example-In our school system in the US, the purpose is to educate children to a degree that they will be compatable in an educated world, however in some instances you will find teachers charged with raping a student. These are also highly trained professionals like soldiers are. Now here lies the dissimmilarity, You will never hear a public cry for a school where a teacher commited rape to be closed, only for the teacher to be brought to the fullest extent of justice under our law. However when a soldier or group of soldiers is accused of a crime, it seems that many would stop the operation at hand, and simply "close shop". We need to remember that individual soldiers are people, and will be tried as individual people for their crimes. Just because there are a few bad cops, doesnt mean that you should shut down the police force.  You are correct, this isnt right, but until the US military can find a breed of perfect people, they just have to work as hard as they can with those of us who choose to enlist, and we all have our faults. Remember that even soldiers are innocent until PROVEN guilty, and I hope IF proven guilty for rape and murder, these men will never see another day of freedom. I fought too hard, saw too much pain, lost too many friends, was too professional, to want any rapist/murderer to stain my reputation.

was this sort of on, sort of not on, the news tonight?  All I saw was them talking about an "incident" and not saying what it was.  \n\nWhat you describe is a horrific crime and brings shame on those men's families, combrades, country, and flag.   But the answer to the question is that everyone is capable of their very own acts of evil.  \n\nThe question here may be partly one of respect.   If you think you're part of the best nation on earth, what is everyone else?   If you can dehumanise the "others", regarding them as less than you, you can justify anything. That is not a uniquely American problem - aggressor nations very often commit horrible violations, with attitudes like that never far away from the action.\n\nBut it's also about self-respect.   If that were you doing that, could you look yourself in the eye afterwards?   Of course not.   So how can they?   People who have pride in their good qualities are less likely to descend to such horrible depths.\n\nNot much of an answer, more of just a train of thought.   Not much shocks me these days, but that does.   If I believed in hell, I reckon I would believe in it for that.

Wake up! \n\nCoppers(police) and liars(lawyers) both officers of the court, share the same life and soul sworn oath of loyalty to an entity(also to each other) which IS NOT to "the people" but rather to a covert alien occupation which is the original enemy of the american people. 200 years ago they were known as the "United Empire" today they refer to themselves as the "Brittish Associacion of Royalty" aka the BAR!\n\nThats right, those many look to as leaders and protectors are in reality a gang of traitors!\n\nIf you want to "believe" in them i support your volition to do so, just try to recognize it is only by our "belief" that we are decieved and abused.\n\nYeah, it suck that this means we are actually enslaved through their deception of "freedom" but wouldn't you prefer to live in reality instead of an illusion? \n\nUnderstand that a "democracy" requires the government be in the control of its people, are you actually niave enough to think this country is really operated by, for and of the people?  \n\nI once was a victim of their brutality including false and malicious arrests, until i came to terms with the reality of what these "officers" actually are. The table has turned, now they fear me, i have made it my preoccupation to seek out their victims using them as conduits to officially execute these traitors, its quite easy actually they have become too reliant upon their deception of our "belief".\n\nThe best advice regarding "police misconduct" is to accept that "they can do whatever the hell they want and get away with it!"(unless you are wise to the truth).

Possessed by demons? Often an accusation levied against people who do not fit societies current specification for optimum citizen.\nThose that actually commit crime should be judged as any others by the legal system. Let us end the insane insanity excuse for evading responsibility for crime.

because in today's society no one accepts responsibility for there actions or for there kids actions. So they have to blame any one they can. And when they blame someone else it takes the blame off of them. sad isn't it

Tim is correct in this.  Now on the rights of an individual, when some one breaks the law, what rights do they have and the rights of the victims have? The law is the law. You break it, you pay the fine, sounds simple? Yet it is not.  America has grown weak with extremist trying to push their platforms at the cost of the society as a whole.  If we would have been a leader in the guest worker programs like so many Asian countries are, the US would not have a 100th of the problems it does now.

I agree with you but for some reason some ppl believe they are above the law because of their "situation" and they use that situation as an excuse and when ppl complain about them they throw in the race card. Plllllllllzzzzzzzz

WOW....quite sad.  I don't think there will be justice....at least not the how you describe it.  I am sure if the people could afford to walk out....they would have already done so.  \n\nHere in America we have a saying.........I'm sure you will gets it's meaning and this is why I think idiots have these jobs...here goes the saying..."it's not who you KNOW.  It's who you BLOW"  \n\nBest wishes to those who you observe with disinterest.

It is the right, duty and responsibility of governments to ensure that its own citizens are 'adequately protected' from illegal immigrations.\n\nFrom our country's experience we have set periodic deadlines for illegal aliens to give themselves up to be repatriated to their counrty of origins, or face arrest and subsequent punishment of the country's laws which includes jail sentence and/or caning. In addition employers face substantial monetary fines for every illegal alien they employ. These measures were effective in reducing a significant total of illegals.\n\nAmerica is not doing enough to protect its own people from within. Illegal aliens bring diseases, cultures/practices that may be offensive/illegal and pose new dangers upsetting existing American communities and neighbourhoods. Why should the American citizens have to tolerate these additional dangers to their lives and peace-of-mind? I just cannot understand why the US government is doing so little/nothing to address this URGENT problem?!! Americans must exert pressure on the authorities, make loud noises by holding peaceful protests IF they want to wake up the government.

I fully understand where you are coming from with this issue. Times have changed and so has the law. Here's a website that keeps up with it

I agree with all of you. People around the world are claiming races, people belonging to a particular religion or culture to be responsible of one-person's (or a group of very few people's) act. Why should any one blame someone else for someones misdeed. There shouldn't be even consideration of the person's race/religion/country/language. Not all the people of a particular group have same thoughts or ways to think. Not everyone acts in the same way in a similar situation.

honey, I'm in complete agreement with you & that goes for all of us....we should be grateful for who we are & what we are & no matter what our circumstances, there is always somebody worse off so "hats off" to you!\n♀ ☼ ☻ ☺ ♫ ♪ ♥ ♀ ☼ ☻ ☺ ♫ ♪ ♥ ♀ ☼ ☻ ☺ ♫ ♪ ♥

I don't agree with guroo_ray.  Sounds like he thinks that only people with money should be able to seek compensation for harms done to them.  Citizens have the right to file petitions and are able to without a lawyer. Look up "pro se litigancy".  There are books on how to represent yourself in court.  I've done it.

I won't be happy until I see all public servants fitted with  a head cam and a microphone.Satellite up-linked to a civilian review board.If its off while on duty, Your immediately fired for life and never to hold the job again in America.Most cops and Judges are control freaks,there the only ones whom want the jobs.No more Judicial Immunity,we all should be equally  held accountable for our individual actions.Freedom in America is a fallacy,Only fools believe it.They can strip your supposed rights in a blink of your eye.Welcome to the New Nazi America.

I completely agree.  I'm tired of quitely smoldering at people that don't even have any respect for others.  Those people are just pathetic losers.  They really need to get a life.\n\nI hate being harsh, but these people that don't have any respect deserve it.
