I strongly agree with your analogy of the Fighter Pilot. Each States Attorney in my lifetime uses its powers to basically go after non-violent offenders (mostly white-collar) and impose sentences that are to the most part inhumane.Especially of those who have served the people of our State and City with gust and most instances have gone out of their way to make an even playing field for people of color. (yeah I said it). Thus after so many notches, they go onto become politicians. While, drug traders, killers, and repeat domestic violence offenders continue to receive sentences that deter evidently no one because all continue to grow. And if I know this, the politicians of color should know they have to stop thinking the "white way" and return to thinking the "right way". We should always be under the impression that has held this city to it's image of you're taking the job an O'Leary, Callahan, McDuffy (you get what I'm saying).And thus, you will always be under the eye-glass and punished twice as hard for less.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961434433209234519noreply@blogger.com
