What I Think Of The Justice System in America?
The United States of America is known as the land where dreams come true. So far in my life I have experienced and seen several different accounts where the law has held this to be undoubtedly true but at the same time unexpectedly wrong. The law was built to establish and maintain order, to keep the citizens of this country safe but at times this power is abused and the American people suffer.
The Rodney King incident is a perfect example for this; police are very sly when going about doing these things. Ask yourself the question, who are you going to believe…the trusted police force or the criminal? No one wants to question the credibility of their justice system; no one wants to believe that the police force is out for themselves and not for us. The police know this and take advantage of it, the minute the majority of Americans start doubting the credibility of their government is when they’ll lose power.
I’m not saying that all cops are like this and we all should be anti-government, but maybe we as the power of the American government should think for ourselves and question things that every arm of the government does, including: the legislative, the executive and the judicial branches. Why do most people instantly get a sense of fear when they see a police car or hear police sirens, not because they are doing anything wrong but just for the simple fact that they are the police. In the end, we know a country cannot survive with no kind of order in place it’s just impossible but I wish the men and women of the police force would take the people of this country into thought before they start their job every day.
