What i think of our legal system

I think our legal system isn’t working for us like it should be. It feels like the bad guys are always getting the upper hand. I’m not saying its one hundred percent shit but I’m just saying, it could be so much better. Just think about it, what if there were more people with principles. Especially those who possess an immense amount of power. I strongly believe that there’s a lack of moral values and as people we get so caught up trying to do everything the easy way because god forbid we have to work hard for anything. That we throw our morals right out the window, doing anything to make a quick buck or to be head of the committee. The system seems quite simple until you start to really read between the lines. We need to start paying attention to what we sign and read a little bit more into the law because when life tends to throw you into those sticky situations. You never know if you’ll have a billion dollar lawsuit on your hands, and with this economy that’s the last thing anyone wants. Yet our Legal system seems to have some kind of …“Monopoly power, the term used to describe a situation in which one or more people or firms control the market in a particular area or for a certain product.”(Essentials of business law. Anthony L. Liuzzo pg.155). There’s a lot taking place on the inside that we are all oblivious to. Corruption and enticement are only a couple. It seems like our precious legal system and everyone in it have a small but sufficient amount of power that they aren’t afraid to use. Our legal system is very tricky it tends to play with our emotions. It will make us feel protected until we really need it. Then sure enough they’ll go and stab us right in the back.

myspace hoax

Megan, a girl who had battled attention deficit disorder, depression and a weight problem took her life away when hateful bulletins were being posted about her online by a boy. The myspace hoax to me does seem as intent of malice. The main reason is because this girl didn’t like Megan so that right there signals a red flag because someone got hurt even though they say it was a “joke” it wasn’t funny at all. Someone’s life ended because of this stupid “joke”. Cases like this really make me wonder what wrong with our world today. Honestly what kind of grown up does that? Part of being a parent is being mature and teaching your children right from wrong instead of spreading nasty rumors and lies she should have persuaded her daughter to speak to the girl an resolve their differences rather than seeking revenge. Just like in the movie one twisted lie can have many outcomes and most of them aren’t so good. Just because it’s not a law it doesn’t mean it still isn’t morally wrong. I think its sick how nothing was done because “no law was broken”. Even though I believe there is enough evidence to prove otherwise. To the victim’s family, stand strong; because this can’t be it justice will be served. Or is there no justice in this world? Are we doom to a life were the innocent are condemned and the guilty are let free. This needs stop here for once and for all. For Megan and all the victims of cyber bullies and not just those, school bullies as well. As parents we also have to make sure we are doing as much as we can to prevent these sort of things from happening to our loved ones.

Lawyers

Is the law really on our side is there really no justice in this world. Has the real meaning of justice changed? Being a lawyer is a tough job because being honest doesn’t have much to do with being a lawyer or justice. Their main job is to protect their clients, they are sworn to secrecy. Whether their client is lying or not they are expected to defend and prove their client’s innocence. For every three dishonest and corrupt lawyers there is always that one honest lawyer that is in it for more than just the money. Sincere and honest lawyers are hard to find nowadays. Is our judicial system so corrupt that no one can really be honest because even that one honest lawyer will sooner or later turn on us? Lawyers are often seen as soulless beings. Many would agree that they probably wouldn’t give away a large sum of money so why would you give away your soul which is worth millions more. Others spend their time acquiring all this success and wealth and in the end don’t do anything to help anyone but themselves. So I have to ask is all that dishonesty and corruption worth it in the end. Are their lives better knowing, they might have ruined an innocent person’s life. How hard is it to be honest and truly do good. I believe if we’d all gave back this world would be a better place. We wouldn’t have hungry children and homeless people or at the least we would help decrease the percentage we do have. In the end, I agree with what a wise man once said, “Success is in the giving back.”
