Almost every single problem we face today in the USA can be traced back to the fact that the courts are a fucking circus. **If judges were afraid of justice from their constituents, you'd see a sudden increase in actual justice being doled out.** But judges are basically untouchable, so they can make absurd decisions like "Let's allow this convicted murderer, Tyrone, out after he served 5 years; sure, he has a rap sheet a mile long, and has been sentenced to a total of... 237 years, but he deserves a 47th chance a living a good life." Tyrone gets out on parole, gets drunk, drives to a Wendy's a passes out, police show up to deal with him, he chimps out, steals a taser off one of the cops and tries to shoot him with it, and then poor Tyrone gets shot 7 times and dies. The media grabs the footage of the incident and skews it with a narrative and begin blasting it out non-stop as a "national news story", and the entire black population of the USA collectively decide to chimp out in their own cities. Riots begin, billions of dollars in property damage and hundreds of injuries, plus several deaths.... oh wait I just described something that actually happened. **If judges were actually held accountable for making clearly insane decisions, if there was any real oversight on judges, we could save the world without bloodshed.** The parole board who lets clearly violent, dangerous savages back onto the streets **dozens of years before their sentence is up** should be held responsible for anything that the parolee does, and anything that happens as a result of what that parolee does. This would turn parole into what it actually should be- a system that allows a person who fucked up, went through a bad period of their life but has clearly shown remorse and changed their outlook can be given a second chance. Right now, parole is a system used to keep prison populations low- so you end up with fucking convicted **MURDERERS** serving less than 1/3 of their sentence, back on the streets.
