Reply #4: The result doesn't matter - the procedure is vital [View All]

To me, the glory of the US judicial system isn't whether all the wrongdoers are always convicted, or whether some guilty bass turds occasionally go free. The beauty & honor is in the process. We humans can never control the outcome, but we have to do what's right when the path is clear.

There's certainly already evidence for prosecution under existing laws. Charges may not be filed for some specious reason or once filed, the scum will be acquitted.

But I believe strongly that we must try. Bush/Cheney & the neocons always choose the "end justifies the means". I believe the most important thing about America (if we actually still exist as America) is that the means (laws & process) is everything.
