Judicial Branch

Hey, thanks for the update. When someone working inside the system is the one telling you the system is broken, that carries more weight than any outside critique, because they see firsthand how the pieces fail to connect. That kind of admission from a person on the ground tends to land harder than any abstract argument about it, and it's worth paying attention to for the kind of public awareness you're raising.

The point about the judicial branch feeding errors into other legal departments is sharp, and the founding fathers framing is fair. They were attempting a functioning representative democracy at a time when nothing quite like it had survived the centuries, so the gap between the original intent and the machine it grew into is exactly the kind of thing that creates this frustration. Nobody dealing with the system today is experiencing the version they were promised on paper, and when even officers say so out loud, that says something about how visible the cracks have become.

For continuity, clergy already gave a practical take on this in High Priest Zevios's reply on your earlier threadFull site ↗, which fits this topic well.

Stay strong out there.

The problem is jail and prison is like being a slave and they treat people inhumanely there often the worst part about jail is nothing to do. I was there before it's not a great experience also the one I was at was very run down and dirty (they did replace the jail a few years after I was there so that's good) and also the people you meet there will often influence you to do more crimes or teach you too. There really is no rehabilitation. Also certain people who should be permanently separated from society are given light sentences or probation while someone who makes a small mistake and is given years. I feel you it's broken. They also try to squeeze people of money they sometimes don't even have for various things that do not always even relate to restitution for the crime.

I think a better approach would be some people reading the character of a person. Most can tell right away the type of person they are dealing with. It should be more individualized some people deserve way worse for a crime and others it was a mistake and they should have mercy. Also make sure the poor and rich have the same or similar experiences and people can't just get off of stuff cause they have a lot of money.

Also real rehibilitation is a goal they fail at most the time. If they gave people spiritual practices it would help a lot.

It's just an unfair system.

I think so, had a conversation and want to add here that when the constitution was made and then slavery was abolished (I think another member is the one who said this, then we double checked it) the exception was that “slavery is allowed as a form of punishment,” which is basically the “fine print,” so people enter this system and slave labor is done. It’s maybe not the entire system itself and awful things do happen out there. The flaws now though that are inexcusable and possibly intentional means anyone could be subject to that.

Really interesting topic. Legal trouble comes in a lot of different forms though and it’s called trouble because it shouldn’t be this sort of troublesome issue. Whether it be civil, criminal, or family division what I described in family is that it’s also like trafficking.

It does mean a lot coming from an officer.
Another one I talked to years ago in a different county described the same loss in family court regardless of the fact that he was in a position where someone could be above it.

Glad I had the opportunity to talk to him and share + deal with some level of this stuff, in order to change things this matters to share.

I think information has been absolutely hidden, people that speak up have met some harsh consequences, and then when someone gets far enough maybe they didn’t have support. Education matters and an ability to analyze cases and work through the hundreds to thousands of micro laws and regulations + procedures to “get to the top,” where you can say and “prove” something. That’s what it’s looking like.

Three words come to mind when I think of our judicial system: prison industrial complex.

Do not trust it as far as i can throw it. I will leave it at that. Be vigilant and safe Zevists 🙏

Uncle Sam Goddamn - Brother Ali

When I was 18-19 someone committed a pretty bad crime against me, the choice I made then (pre-college, pre… now) and I was pregnant but I consider that technically a kid, I think it would’ve probably even been fair but I put faith into “the things that I do not know,”

Because even though I had that experience, the criminal in question ultimately would’ve “had no way out,” over a mistake.

That affected my life up to now and has impacted every decision I’ve made up to where I live and I’m lucky to be alive. So I get both ends of this, but I think most people agree that not everyone’s actions look the same or deserve the same punishment either and that is what the system also can create. People are still pushing for others to be released from jail for marijuana possession.

That person that I stayed silent about ended up quitting heroin, making money, ect.

I was always pretty outspoken about freedom, rights, and stood for the idea we were at least fed about those rights liberty and democracy.

I scored higher on a practice bar exam than Kim k after she received an education on it. That’s a hard exam to pass.

Thanks for appreciating my knowledge on the subject and what I’ve had to share.

The song lyrics of brother Ali make a lot of sense, and other rappers talk about it.

My end also being in science is that the problems kind of run out to other places, science is a more free thing but the government is not funding solutions that actually are available.

I did make a theory with a few other PhD’s after all of our studies we made the same conclusion, it’s not an official study but there is a way to solve even the “crime issue,” let’s say it’s “all flawless and credible,” scientists can leave the government with no excuses for the problems the people and public want to be solved.

African Americans do commit more crimes on average, violent crimes, as far as things are labeled but the system fails to look at that, so people notice something and create a song like that, “government has a problem with enslaving and harming African Americans,”

It’s definitely not just them, they also had the idea that they’re slaves or somehow impacted by former slavery.

Our system fails to listen to scientists. Basically I already said it, I’m just rambling. They do that for profit I guess.

And this song is just from me. The video is like what I see is happening. I’m like fighting an apocalypse and speaking up about things where I’m getting consequences and trying to find solutions.

I think everyone’s input is valuable and I hope more people post about it and take action no matter what their circumstances are. Especially people labeled as disadvantaged,

If something happens to me & I’m not alive (I think I will be, but if I’m not alive in the next 5 years)

I went with my dignity, stood for my values, fought for the kids, sent what I could, and practiced what I preached.

World needs to be a better place.

And sorry I replied so much, my replies are @ everyone who sees it though.

Idk if the video makes sense but cute detail, the whole video kind of says a life story and the guy she beats up at 2:55 is like the guy who called the police on me that tried to attack me twice the past few years,

But after I was released from some sort of hold/detained I went to a guys house and we started sort of dating again.

just noticed that.
