Our justice system isn't.

In Washington state, Branson Myers, a 22-year-old, crossed the center line with his truck and KILLED two motorcyclists and severely injured two others.
He "may have fallen asleep behind the wheel."

The charge? Second-degree negligent driving ... a traffic infraction subject to a $250 fine.
tdn.com/news/local/hon…
Two people are dead.

Their lives are worth $125 each.

In North Carolina, a Dominican man voted in 2016 after becoming a naturalized citizen in 1999 ... using a fake identity.

HE faces 11 years in prison and a $350,000 fine for a VICTIMLESS crime.

In WA, “... we came to the conclusion that he was fatigued,” Quintero said. Investigators learned that Meyers had worked a graveyard shift the night before, and only gotten a couple hours of sleep after his shift ended.

Fatigued. Why is this not driving "With disregard for the safety of others"? IOW, vehicular homicide? app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.as…
Why is improperly voting ONCE deemed so much more of a crime against society than killing two people through negligence and seriously injuring two others?

What has this country come to?

Not justice for damn sure.
OH. And in Virginia we have fraudulent signature-gathering .... which seems to have been orchestrated by a sitting Congressman (staffers working for the incumbent gathered signatures).

No fines/penalties here, is there? #noJustice

washingtonpost.com/local/virginia…
And in CA -- "60 criminal counts of conspiracy, wire fraud and filing false campaign-finance reports to cover up more than $250,000 allegedly stolen from the campaign treasury over six-plus years"

The Hunters' attorney says "not criminal".

sandiegouniontribune.com/news/watchdog/…
"Hunter has presented himself to constituents as a Christian conservative and committed family man. So far, the allegations of illegal spending and other conduct antithetical to that image have not driven away voters."

Bet they're cheering on the NC case, though. #noJustice

Brand new Texas group sues Harvard and NYU Law Reviews this weekend claiming reverse discrimination. Lawyer on case: Trump nominee

Harvard filed Sat. NYU on Sun.

Timing a coincidence? I think not.

Dear @resistbot developers

STOP asking for DOB which you are linking to first and last names and phone over insecure SMS.

I’m stunned. This is the sort of info we opposed Trump’s gathering en masse last year.

#justSayNo to today’s ask about being registered to vote.
Reminder that @resistbot org fails basic transparency test on “about” page.

Resist.bot/about

Nothing about how they manage your data, protect your #privacy , who is advisory board, who makes decisions, etc. #Opaque.

“In a 2014 address to Yale Law students, [Kavanaugh] recalled a night of ‘group chugs’ in Boston that ended with his group “falling out of the bus onto the front steps of Yale Law School at about 4:45 a.m.”
nytimes.com/2018/09/28/us/…
Drinking to excess is not synonymous with blacking out (having memory gaps). Kavanaugh implied the former by denying the latter.
Kavanaugh claimed it was “legal to drink” in his senior year. Not true. The legal drinking age in Maryland had been raised to 21 before he turned 18. And 1982, the summer in question, was the summer BEFORE his senior year. He turned 18 in 1983.

Plan in place in S Africa and UK by a CANADIAN company. John Hancock is not US-owned.

Welcome to global rule by capitalists.

Example of news-release-“reporting” or zero curiosity on the part of the writer.

Do you want ANY corporation monitoring your whereabouts and behavior 24x7? Hell no.

And a reminder that “insurance” wasn’t created to help the most secure/fit. Franklin’s vision: to spread risk throughout a community.

h/t @MrAlanCooper
Insurance as envisioned by Benjamin Franklin was the opposite of individualism (an American myth with long legs).

Lost in the fevered GOP rhetoric that there is a proverbial time-bomb counting down on the Kavanaugh nomination:

In 2016, some in the GOP said they’d not let Clinton appoint a SCOTUS justice.
h/t @KevinMKruse

pbs.org/newshour/polit…
These “omg we have to vote now else democracy is lost” hypocrites held open a SCOTUS justice seat for ONE YEAR AND 53 DAYS because they did not want the country’s first black president to make that appointment.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-m…
The GOP rhetoric is classic 1984-doublespeak (AKA bullsh*t).

CLAIM: The FBI does not investigate charges like those made by Dr. Blasey.

FACT: the FBI investigated Anita Hill’s allegation.

"In the face of warnings that climate change was making" storms like Florence "more common" NC created an 'insurer of last resort' and "has written policies for thousands of coastal properties worth tens of billions of dollars." #NoFederalBailOutForNC
propublica.org/article/hurric…
Why did the NC politicians do this?
Because "nationally known insurance companies pulled out of the state’s coastal communities". You know, they assessed the risk and said 'hell no.'
State Farm stopped writing new homeowner policies for houses within a mile of the ocean in 2006. By the end of 2008, Farmers Insurance and Encompass Insurance joined SF.
