In the halls of justice....

... all the justice is in the halls, as Lenny Bruce once said.

Did this stuff just start with OJ?

Not likely.

I got up this morning and heard that Paris Hilton has been fitted with an ankle bracelet and has been reassigned to home confinement. She was let out of jail because she whined and cried until her psychiatrist signed an order that she is "ill" and can't handle it. I'd like to know what medical condition justified her being let out early.

Sheesh! Home confinement in Bel Air! My heart is bleeding! I wonder if she has enough range on her ankle bracelet to walk her little dog on Bellagio Road!

You know, I'm the first one to consider psychological conditions and I'm especially sensitive to not traumatizing people. We all come with different capabilities in this world, things we can handle and things we can't. Some people simply can not handle certain life conditions. As one who is extremely environmentally sensitive (can't stand lights, noise, etc), I probably bend too much in the direction of honoring personal psychological needs.

The thing is that I am not partial to rich people.

Is jail not traumatizing for young Black women from Watts?

I've often believed that if we wait long enough, the truth usually comes out. The double-tiered system of justice is out on the table right now. It's no longer hidden. It's no longer talked about behind hands. It's in our faces. This just smells!

And will it change? Probably not.

What do you think? How should the American people respond to this?

(Note: If these posts are getting boring as hell, would someone tell me? I'm floundering a bit here and hate to think I'm boring the spit out of everyone. It's hard to be scintillating every day, isn't it? LOL I think I might have to go steal some memes. :)
