conservative judges in action
It's getting so I hate to read the news anymore. I find Myself wanting to scream and throw things.I definitely need to chill out a little bit. Like today, I read in the NY Times opinion page about a man named Keith Knowles. Mr knowles is an Ohio prison inmate Who challenged His murder conviction in federal district court and lost. He was told by the court that He had until Feb. 27 to appeal. He filed the appeal on Feb.26 prepared to argue why He was wrongly convicted, only to be told that the judge had made a mistake. The appeal should have been filed by Feb. 24. The Supreme Court ruled 5 to 4 that Mr. Knowles' appeal was invalid. Can You believe this crap. 5 sorry assed lowlife judges sit on their butts and say the court won't hear His appeal because one of Their own made a mistake. A man is penalized because some idiot couldn't get His dates right. This is the way things are nowadays in amuraka. What kind of assholes are these people? This is a perfect example of conservative thinking in action. It makes Me sick to think that Our judicial system is so callous and uncaring. The only good thing about this is that 4 Judges dissented, saying " It is intolerable for the judicial system to treat People this way." I have no idea weather Mr. Knowles is guilty or not, but He damn sure deserves to have His appeal heard.
