Something That Needs To Be Shared!

I read this article on my friend Ange's LiveJournal, and I felt the need to re-post. Because it utterly makes me sick how cruel and twisted humans can be.

But what makes it worse, the law, which is supposed to protect us turns the other cheek. I just hope all involved get what's comming to them.

I've come to learn, long ago, that the law means shit, and the people "enforce" it, don't do a damn thing to protect victims, in most cases.

The law is screwed up and biased and so is law enforcement. That just seems to be a fact of life. So really, I have no respect for law enforcement or the court system anymore, and never will again. They've screwed over me and my family many times before, so why should I respect an authority that either abuses its power, or is too lazy to do their job?

I've come to realize this the past few months or so. This article really made me realize it means shit. Around here the police are nothing but bullies. They'll pull you over if you're young and driving at night, because they think you're on drugs or something. The law sucks!
