Quote from a goofy bastard

Today's Quote From a Goofy Bastard
  
  “I know that – in distant countries, and within our own borders – there are people intent on, and actively plotting to, kill Americans,” he told his legal peers in the enthusiastic audience. “Victory and security will not come easily, and they won’t come at all if we adhere to a rigid ideology, adopt a narrow methodology, or abandon our most effective terror-fighting weapon – our Article III [civil] court system,” - Eric Holder defining our number one weapon against terror.  The courts.

...so, wait.

What??

We arm the Mexicans w/ AK-47's, and a "civil court" is going to protect us?

Are we arming the judges, now??

Has he looked in a mirror lately? "...and within our own borders-..." indeed!

Four words . . . one simple sentence . . . pronoun, transitive verb, and either an article or possessive pronoun for the direct object . . . the biggest single impediment to justice, crime solving, and law enforcement in this country: “I want a/my lawyer.”

And once the counselor, the advocate, the mouthpiece for the accused arrives on scene, the operative word becomes “win,” with no thought whatever for what is true, what is right, what is just . . . ESPECIALLY where the victim of the crime is concerned.

All a big game. A sham. A posturing, equivocating, obfuscating scrimmage involving interpretation, timing, personalities, buzzwords, misdirection, and negotiation, whether the accused is guilty of the crime or not. Appearance versus reality. Amusement. Entertainment. Diversion. Revenues. Ratings.

The natural enemy of the law is lawyers.

Sucks.

Eric Holder is an enabler of those who would subvert our borders and deny us the rights of our Constitution. He should be tried for subversion.

Well there is rumor that in Congress they are talking about an Independent Prosecutor being found since it looks like Holder has been lying about when he knew about Fast and Furious (Gunwalker) and there is no way anybody in the Justice Dept can be trusted anymore to investigate or prosecute.

Civil court is not a terror-fighting weapon.
It is a restitution system, sometimes a punishment system.
Armed citizenry/military/border-patrol/police is a terror-fighting weapon.

Obviously, Holder is not part of a terror-fighting weapon, either.
