I was watching an old babe whom CNN put on camera.
She's one
of those persecutors who was a prosecutor.
She makes her living
by ranting that persons (almost always men) accused of crimes are certainly guilty.
As I watched that unattractive person do her unattractive bit, I wondered firstly what has happened to the presumption of innocence and secondly, if the guy (the woman is clearly hostile toward men) is guilty, why must the public be convinced? CNN's pundit of guilt was/is supposedly a lawyer, but she shows no trust or respect for the legal process, only for the delights of punishment. Like so many others of the "morality preachers," she exploits and profits from crime or what she can sell as crime. I don't think she's as fanatic as the Fox crackpots, but she's of the same stripe: unfair - unfair to the point of being manic. A neurotic Jewish mother may relish and manipulate guilt, but in the real world, for every effect there's a cause. The cops are wrong a lot! Many of the persons they accused of crimes are not guilty. More importantly, most privileged / rich / influential criminals aren't charged with their crimes unless the crimes are sexual (Americans are addicted to other persons sexuality) or the person is one whose celebrity can rub off on the accusers. We should be skeptical of the cops and the media. They both have their own agendas to sell. We should also keep in mind that every "crime" has a cause, a motivation, a reason. If it didn't, it would be an accident. We need to focus some attention on the reason or cause for a crime. We might also wonder why so very many things today are "crimes." We no longer have any real sources of news, that is, of useful information. What Fox calls news is really extremist political propaganda to con you out of your liberties. What most other sources call news is really fluff to entertain the 30 second attention span of consumers. When corporations dish out "news," expect to get soap opera. Perhaps the closest thing to real news is on NPR (National Public Radio). Since it's factual, the corporate media calls it "liberal." Regrettably, CNN is more and more "junk news;" entertainment and gossip instead of useful facts. The old prosecuter cum entertainer who whines on CNN's camera has no interest in innocence. She has a need to assign guilt and find fault; point a finger. Crime is what the cops say it is. The cops are the worst of all the criminals. If you don't believe it, see our Public Enemies department. The cops are the government and the government is your enemy. It intends to harm (not help) you. The more power you give to the government, the more it will harm you. The more you trust or believe the cops, the more you personally are at risk. CNN's legal persecutor has a right to sell her bias just as Fox has a right to sell its lies and distortions. I counsel, however, that you think for yourself, be skeptical, ask questions and look at all sides. Why does somebody want you to believe a certain thing in a certain way?
