I spent nine years in Washington. What follows is my recollection of the days of the sniper shootings by John Muhammad and John Malvo, for what it’s worth.

Poem.

What systems do we socialize and which do we capitalize? Where does too much control meet not enough? Marijuana: prohibition or decriminalization? Abortion: where does life begin? Death penalty: when does someone deserve to die? No matter what the argument, a line has to be drawn somewhere. How do we decide?

To what extend did the arguments of the (so-called) anti-Federalists reveal a desire to prevent (or avoid) a strong central government in the United States?

Our society keeps us under control, not the government. Laws don’t have to control us anymore, because social standards have conditioned us. It’s all because of our foundations of hypocrisy.

A run through of criminal law and the purpose of it.

I don’t know what I’m talking about. But I think I make a point somewhere in this…Maybe.
