Will There Ever Be Consequences?

Ever since the election of Barack Obama, citizens of America and the world have watched untold numbers of criminal activities committed by high profile elected officials and private citizens who have yet to be held accountable for their various misdeeds. What is that saying to the American public, the world, and most of all to the young people about the American “justice system?”

To make sure my point is absolutely clear; failure to pursue high visibility wrongdoers demonstrates that there is, in fact, two levels of justice in America. Failure to prosecute wrongdoers just because it might appear to be political retribution is wrong. Failure to pursue all wrong doers is, by default, subliminally saying breaking the law is OK for some people. Therefore, people are, understandably, evaluating whether or not there are laws they can violate, if they wish.
