This is not an endorsement of laca's post at all, though.
Agreed, our judicial system somtimes fails to work. I also remember a recent case of a man that sexually assaulted/molested a toddler for a span of four years and was given probation.

I believe Laca wants to put forth the premise that we aren't as free as we claim we are. I don't get his point???? What is it, let people do just about anything thay want , and when they commit a crime, just overlook it?????

Lets ask Laca about that "other country" that offers up personal freedoms greater than those we enjoy here in the USA.
