12 Ways Offered to Cut Dismissals
Letters to the Editor
TOUCHE TO Sheriff Darren White for trying to lock up career criminals. We all agree
it makes sense. Why is it not happening? Well, let's see who is in charge
of taking criminals off the street lawyers and judges (former lawyers).
And how do they make a living? From crime.
Why would
Philip Morris want to stop people from smoking? They don't. Why would
lawyers and judges want to cut crime? They don't. Same reason. Until we
get mad enough to demand the maximum sentence for criminals, don't expect
anything to change.
The underpaid police keep
arresting criminals, and the legal system keeps letting them go so they
can be arrested and pay lawyers more money your money for public
defenders to set them free.
In the meantime, White
and crew will fight the good fight, but the windmills will endure. We will
lock ourselves in our homes while the criminals run free, and the lawyers
and judges nestle in their gated communities with alarm systems and
collect their fat paychecks.
