A recent death of a police officer in the line of duty resulted in a grand jury determination that facts related to the death did not rise to the level of a criminal act that justified more than a $2000 fine and a possible jail sentence of up to six months for the person responsible for the death. If a police officer’s life lost in the line of duty serving me and you, the citizens of this nation is not worth only $2,000 then what do you think your life is worth in this God forsaken system of Restorative Jurisprudence.

Presidential candidates like to speak about American Values. Those who speak the loudest about them seem to be the worst offenders when they try to destroy whatever values we have remaining as a sovereign nation. The measure of great societies is not how much wealth they can accumulate in the hands of the aristocracy or any special interest group.

Widespread individual property ownership instead of state ownership of private property defines a level of liberty and measure of potential for citizens to live what is commonly referred to as the American Dream. Those governments who don’t value freedom and liberty make it difficult for the working class people of their nation to own their homes or anything else. They are saddled with government restrictions or insurmountable debt structures with inadequate pay to attain any wealth. It is a perpetuation cycle of economic restrictions that prevent accumulation of wealth by inheritance to family children.

That economic barometer of nations’ government character is a measure of its worth possibly, but no measure is a better indicator of the real and true worth of a government is the value it places on its citizens.

Great societies and their governments are best measured by how they value their citizens, the weakest of them and particularly how the value those who choose to put their life on the line to protect and serve their nation. The free nation republics are by definition of by and for the people governed who provide the consent to be governed.

WE the People then are getting a strong indication about how we value our selves and at the same time the true nature of the form of government we are suffering from when we see what our lives are valued at. If there is little or no value placed on the lives and well being of nation’s citizens that is not a republic that governs with the consent of the people. Only more restrictive dictatorial governments diminish the value of citizens’ lives.

Nations rise and fall as they suffer under the debate regarding how much worth should be assigned to the most precious position each of us have, our life.

Dictatorial governments routinely use its citizens for slave labor, and murder them at will for the most minor infractions of the government rule. The lack of value of human existence continues to plague developing third world nations where genocide and mass murder is commonplace. These offensive and murderous governments are valueless as societies and will ultimately come to ruin.

The United States is a nation that has slowly started on a similar path into the same dictatorial processes that ignore the rights and values of its citizenry. The changes in American society have been so gradual as to hardly be noticeable but they have never the less occurred.

We now have People running for president like John McCain who openly advocates sacrificing American Citizen economic well being and lives to provide what remains of the American largess to invading hoards of Mexican Marxists that despise the GRINGO and the American way of life.

WE have the Liberals and socialist democrats demanding more liberty and freedom for those who violate our rule of law and flaunt the basic tenants of freedom established in our constitution. WE the People are to be protected from invasion and provided protection for our safety and well being. That is a common element of our republic, and it no longer is important if it exists or not.

The communist left wing in the United States demanded and got a Restorative system of jurisprudence that relies on negotiating between criminally injured parties and their attackers. WE no longer have the concept of the battle being against the criminal being fought by all of us in the body of our government. Each victim now stands alone, valued at less than the worth of their criminal assailant.

The United States penal system, once recognized as one of the finest in the world, has degenerated into a third world communist rehabilitative system where the inmates run the system instead of the government. Gang rule and violence is the only control over the prison population. New inmates instead of paying a fair price for their criminal conduct are frequently abused by a penal system under the control of criminals because our restorative justice system gives the inmates more rights than we the victims have.

Left wing communists insist the problem is caused by a lack of full implementation of restorative justice. What is left? People get away with murder now, illegal alien flood our nation and the police officers hands are tied by corrupt politicians, the President of the United States and Presidential candidates say to hell with the rule of law. Early release of “non violent” offenders is the norm. Victims bodies keep piling up under a system that will not or can not enforce the rule of law as those designated “non violent” offenders continue to rape murder and plague society.

What more can we do to make it more of a restorative justice system? The only thing left is to not penalize anyone for any criminal act and admit the communist objective of destroying the greatest republic in the world from within has been successful. Lets say forget the rule of law and accept Anarchy as the national policy of jurisprudence and be done with it.

Our tax dollars continue to be squander on mediation courts, administrative officers of the courts, psychological testing, and a myriad of other socialistic programs that have exacerbated problems to the point our Judiciary and law enforcement institutions are on the brink of collapse. Corrupt and mismanaged state and local governments scurry to privatize the “Rehabilitative” jail systems and encounter even more corruption and graft.

These problems could have been resolved with initial redemptive justice whereby criminal actions and resultant victim injury were at one time commensurate with the consequences of the criminal act. That option has been excluded from consideration in the Restorative Justice we now have.

Given this dire state of circumstances arising from the most basic of failures to define fair and swift justice in accordance with the United States Constitution and rule of law, the United States has not yet hit rock bottom. We have come close.

The recent news about the death of officer and the results from our failed restorative justice system rank with the stories about the deaths of officers at the hands of illegal aliens, the incarceration of officers for upholding the law, like Ramos and Compean, border patrol agents held hostage by President Bush to further deteriorate the rule of law and demoralize our police officers. These dark and tragic events mark the worst of times for a free nation.

Lack of respect and value for our officers is the death knell for society, as the only thing standing between a free citizenry and the apocalypse of Armageddon. Please take this small message as a direct plea for you a fellow citizen, to demand sanity and a return to American values that place an importance on the lives of its most loyal and faithful servants who risk their lives for us each day. Don’t do it for them, do it for your self and your family. If our government is so corrupted that a police officer can be arbitrarily killed and the killer get a $2000 fine at most, you life and your families lives are not worth spit.

Read this article and see if you think you have value. Discover the number of police officers killed at the hands of illegal alien invaders, and see if your government values your life. Charges should have minimally been reckless homicide or manslaughter, but it was considered merely a traffic violation.

The restorative justice system in Texas said “loud and clear” for all criminals to hear. “You want to kill a cop? Run them down with your car and say you were distracted and are now very sorry.” If I were you I would keep out of the streets fellow citizens.

Read the following article and weep for officer Precinct 5 Deputy Constable Jason Norling his widow Lisa Norling and then weep for the death of Justice in America.

When you get finished doing that call your legislators and tell them no more, you are not going to take this anymore. Demand your liberty and promise of security be restored to the citizens and victims of crime. End the slaughter.

No felony charges for man who killed Texas deputy http://www.policeone.com/legal/articles/1654481/

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — A Harris County grand jury on Thursday decided not to bring a felony indictment against a man accused of killing a Harris County constable's deputy while talking on his cell phone and driving.

However, they decided James Michael Legg should be charged with a class B misdemeanor in the death of Precinct 5 Deputy Constable Jason Norling.

Investigators said Legg was distracted by his cell phone when he hit the 38-year-old motorcycle officer about 10:30 a.m. Oct. 1 on the Westpark Tollway near Gessner. Norling was off his motorcycle, conducting a routine traffic stop.

Prosecutor Warren Diepraam said he sought to indict Legg for a felony but grand jurors returned an indictment for failure to change lanes for an emergency vehicle, a 2003 law that forces drivers to change lanes or slow down to 20 mph below the posted speed limit as they pass.

Norling's widow said Thursday she was surprised that Legg wasn't indicted on felony charges.

"So it's a slap on the wrist?" Lisa Norling said.

She also said she doesn't hate the man who killed her husband, just what he did.

"I don't wish him any harm," Lisa Norling said. "He has to feel remorse. It has to be terrible to know that you killed a man."

Diepraam also said other members of Norling's family were disappointed.

"They understand that it's a horrible accident," Diepraam said. "But they thought he needed to be held responsible for a criminal felony."

Legg's attorney, Kent Schaffer, said Legg was "somewhat relieved," but still remorseful.

"He has always accepted responsibility for this," Schaffer said.

He said he and Legg would next meet with prosecutors to try to come to an agreement about whether a plea bargain could be reached. The misdemeanor is punishable by six months in jail and a $2,000 fine if convicted.

Legg was not taken into custody and will post bond as soon as bail is announced in the case, Schaffer said.

He said Legg testified before the grand jury for about an hour before jurors made their decision.
