American Justice

Contributed by kpsniper2003 on Friday, 21st October 2005 @ 11:39:35 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



They say justice is blind, but I know that she can see.
They say were all suppose to be treated equal, no matter what color or religon we may be.
But then they charge you with a crime, no matter what the crime maybe.
Then they lock you up like a dog., before your even found guilty.
Then the day comes when you go to trial, and your acquitted and finally set free.
Then they tell you your free to go now, without even an apology.
But by now you've lost your job, your house and family, All this from a legal system that says were all innocent until proven guilty.

what perturbs me most about the justice system is that in some cases everyone but the jury knows the person is guilty, and the person gets off scott free, and even the lawyer can say the person was guilty. the people that we have these laws for deserve none of the rights they are given, and yet the ones who are innocent and get stuck in the system, they are denied them somewhat. i think this did well power wise being a little rough around the edges. the length also worked for this piece too.
