They have very few laws, because, with their social system, very few laws are required. Indeed, one of their great complaints against other countries is that, although they’ve already got books and books of laws and interpretations of laws, they never seem to have enough. For, according to the Utopians, it’s quite unjust for anyone to be bound by a legal code which is too long for an ordinary person to read right through, or too difficult for him to understand.
[Leges habent perquam paucas. sufficiunt enim sic institutis paucissimae. Quin hoc in primis apud alios improbant populos, quod legum interpretumque uolumina, non infinita sufficiunt. Ipsi uero censent iniquissimum; ullos homines his obligari legibus; quae aut numerosiores sint, quam ut perlegi queant; aut obscuriores quam ut a quouis possint intelligi.]Thomas More (1478-1535) English lawyer, social philosopher, statesman, humanist, Christian martyr

When a nation once loses its regard to justice; when they do not look up it as something venerable, holy and inviolable; when any of them dare presume to lessen, affront or terrify those who have the distribution of it in their hands; when a judge is capable of being influenced by any thing that is foreign to its own merits, we may venture to pronounce that such a nation is hastening to its ruin.

Honest Men often go to Law for their Right; when Wise Men would sit down with the Wrong, supposing the first Loss least. In some Countries the Course of the Courts is so tedious, and the Expence so high, that the Remedy, Justice, is worse than, Injustice, the Disease. In my Travels I once saw a Sign call’d The Two Men at Law; One of them was painted on one Side, in a melancholy Posture, all in Rags, with this Scroll, I have lost my Cause. The other was drawn capering for Joy, on the other Side, with these Words, I have gain’d my Suit; but he was stark naked.
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist
Poor Richard (1742 ed.)More info about this quote: wist.info/franklin-benjamin/30…

@ridicol Hopefully the #Tokyo #Police introduced those Israeli's to the #Japanese #JudicialSystem.
Which does not fuck around.
Also, what goes around comes around.
Here's hoping those Israeli's receive the same "#CollectivePunishment" that they so brazenly wish on others.

@TucsonSentinel For how many GOP supporters of Trump are simply fighting to avoid jail? How many Senators, Reps, face serious legal risk? More and more rats will jump ship.

"Brian Pritchard, first vice chairman of the Georgia Republican Party, was ordered to pay a $5,000 fine, as well as investigative costs, and be publicly reprimanded. No threat of five years of imprisonment. …
When we see an old White man receive a finger-wagging for his crime while a younger Black woman receives five years, we know there’s something more than the pursuit of justice at work."
-
"These two cases may not be exactly the same, but they are close enough to reveal a stark difference in how the legal system demonstrates systemic racism. Texas Republicans wanted to scare Black people away from voting because they tend to vote Democratic, so they went after this Black woman with all their might: Five years in prison for casting an illegal provisional ballot, not knowing what she was doing was illegal."

Facing 88 charges across 4 #criminal cases, #Trump has made presenting himself as the #victim of a ‘#weaponized’ #JudicialSystem a central focus in his bid for a 2nd WH term, turning his criminal #indictments into a rallying cry that helped end the #GOP primary swiftly. It’s less clear how that message, w/ #attacks on the judicial system once unheard of by a major pres candidate, will factor into the gen #election.
