EOC Week 3
Commenting on EA Designer...
In my personal opinion, what EA Designer has to say about the Justice System really rings true. The fact that there are certain laws in different states which are actually in effect is absolutely ridiculous. There are crazy, weird laws out there that just absolutely make no sense. For example, it is illegal to teach others what polygamy is in Mississippi. Wow, I mean really? All I can say is why not? You can be fined not less than twenty but no more than 500 dollars and be sentenced to up six months in jail. I do agree that laws are backwards and in certain situations, without the right licensing and right paperwork, cases can be thrown out. Being able to sue anyone for anything nowadays is fabulous. We all have rights and we also have the right to hire a spectacular lawyer with all the right credentials.
Commenting on Clinton Sound Incorp...
The truthful and in your face opinion about the law/justice system that you’re saying here really struck me. The health care system is a joke in America and it’s the saddest thing to see the effects because of it. The fact that Las Vegas not only does not have enough teachers here as it is, but also the ones that we have are getting laid off on top of that, is very upsetting. We need to fix our education system here in the Clark County system because as it is, I know we are not high up on the “extremely smart youth” group of kids in this city of sin. We should have no reason to be known as Generation stupid when there is just so much education available out there, but for some just no means to get to it. I completely agree with changing the youth of America to make it a better place for you and I.

What I think of the law...
I believe the law provides justice and safety to the world. Our judicial system is made up of administration branches that function to govern us. For instance, if someone is being negligent, depending on the case by case basis, the law must decide whether one or more third parties will be held responsible. Also, the fact that we have workers’ compensation for work-related injuries and illnesses is a very important when dealing with jobs that have heavy machinery or construction workers because they have a very high risk of harming themselves. All punishments are suitable to the extremity of the crime. If you’re charged with murder, you may get the death penalty or end up a lifer in prison with maximum security.
Our society as well as any society in the world, needs some sort of law because without law, there will be chaos without order. There are unjustified wrongs done in the world everyday and those people that may think something is ok when it really isn’t. They really need to have the book thrown at them so they realize they can’t get away with anything and everything. Committing a crime whether it be treason, felony, or a misdemeanor all have considerable consequences and one can only hope that a person will learn from his/her mistakes. But then there are those who just can’t get enough of whatever it is that excites them and motivates them that they just keep going back to their old ways. I don’t feel bad for those people honestly because even if you have that addiction to steal, gamble, extort, and anything that has to do with breaking the law, there are ways to get help. It’s just a matter of whether or not you want to look for it and whether or not you want it bad enough.

What I think about lawyers...
I don’t personally know any lawyers although I know they can be very harsh at times. I think that if they’re defending someone that deserves every right given to them, it’s admirable. But it’s terrible when the defendant has committed a serious, heinous crime and is let off with a pat on the back because they have a seriously “kick-ass” lawyer. I guess it all depends on the situation. But basically all my opinions are based on what I see on T.V., honestly. And what I see is some very good lawyers who know the law from front to back and know how to talk up a good game who can win almost any case. Or on the opposite end, there’s the lawyer who people love to hate because they’re working for the bad guys or they’re on the wrong team according to the general audiences values and morals.
Lawyers are supposed to be there to defend our rights. Everyone has them and everyone deserves a chance at some point in life, right? But when it comes to seeing people that don’t even qualify to live among other human beings, doing the crime that may be punishable to death, get off and let back into society among us and among children, really sickens me to my stomach. There is no way in the world that I would be able to ever defend someone who didn’t deserve a second chance, no matter how much they paid me. People that commit these terrible crimes just don’t even merit a second look to repair in my opinion.
