Concerned:part (2) Well it’s summer in Florida again! How are the registered homeless citizens making it? Forced out into the sun. Some with only a tent for shelter.But it is probably 25 degrees hotter inside the tent during the day unless it’s raining “THANK GOD” and 75 to 80 degrees at night while trying to sleep!. What do the do during the day? They must be getting a golden tan. Because they have to!. Surely not for pleasure. Some may have sensitive skin. Maybe there not supposed to be in the sun at all! I would think that a Floridian born sun worshiper would not want this much sun. There is a limit before the blisters on top of blisters, and peeling skin, after awhile the skin cancer sets in!. Do they have a place to bathe? A body of water to try to cool off? A cold drink? A hot 3 course meal? How long has it been? Are they going to live this way untill they die from the elements? Or is it right to say untill they get old and die from natural causes? And then you ask yourself, who cares? Well that’s simple! It’s there family and friends that love them. Because they are caring human beings! And then you ask who don’t care? Alot more people know the answer to that than the ones that don’t! GOD BLESS!!..

A “gold star for the forehead” is all that matters in prosecuting. They do not get promoted for standing up for justice, but for getting a conviction. 75% of the lawyers in the world are in the United States. Any wonder we have laws that make just about any act by some manner criminal in nature.

There was an interesting fact disclosed by a speaker at NARSOL concerning the death penalty.

One in 9 people sentenced to death is ultimately exonerated! Holy cow! That’s a huge number! The speaker asked whether anyone would fly an airplane if there was a one in nine chance they would die?

The majority of people in prison are guilty, but there is a small percentage (if you go by death row exhortations; 11%) who are innocent. Whether they are wrongfully convicted, can’t afford a decent attorney or simply took a no-brainer plea deal under the threat of facing a long, long, long sentence (with the knowledge that there’s an 11% chance they will be convicted even if innocent).

Our criminal justice system is messed up. In most other countries, the job of the prosecutor is to ensure justice is administered. Whether the evidence leans toward conviction or is exculpatory, the government attorney presents the picture to the judge or jury and they decide. In the United States the job of the prosecutor is to get the conviction. Whether right or wrong, the goal is to win.

I knew many guys in Michigan prison who ended up serving their max without parole because they insisted that they were innocent. It’s a tough situation, but like I advised all of the guys when i was locked up, it’s best to just play along with whatever the therapists want, and get your parole and get on with your life. Same with therapy while on parole or probation. Even if you convince your therapist that you aren’t guilty, it wouldn’t change your conviction. Play their game and move on. They are the ones who write the rules.

I found that in counselling they are more interested in supporting their agenda than hearing the truth of the matter. I just played their game until I finally completed. The full truth was never revealed because it would not have fit the format of their ‘play book’. The victim and I have since resolved the situation and moved on with our lives…system be damned! We get along just fine and are in contact almost daily.

Do a thousand good deeds and no one remembers. Do one bad deed and no one forgets. That’s the theme of many Florida bureaucrats.

As long as your vote is in compliance with his ‘lordship’ Scott’s will.
