A really good man died today.

A really good mean died today. He will be greatly missed. RIP Mark.

John Gibson on Heath Ledger's Death

Okay, I usually don't have any problem with FOX news. Even though FOX is completely baised, at least they are biased in a way I agree with and they don't hide it. Unlike the normal news networks who give a completely skewed opinion and say they are neutral. BUT, who the hell is John Gibson? I've personally never listened to the guy but what an asshole. The link above contains an audio clip of a broadcast that's supposed to have been put out by John Gibson basically making light of Heath Ledger's death. Maybe it was an accidental overdose, maybe it was suicide, but there is absolutely no class or honor in not showing respect for the dead. The number of people I would ever wish death on for being that evil is few and would only be in my head. Heath Ledger was certainly not deserving of that level of disrespect or hate. Now, there is report that the same group that has been protesting at military funerals is going to do the same at Ledger's. Gibson might as well show up, he is just as bad. True conservatives should be just as pissed as I am, there isn't any excuse for this kind of behavior or broadcasting. I hope Gibson and the freaks that show up at his funeral to do anything other than pay their respects get the holy shit beaten out of them.

Portland's "Justice System"

OK, I've been contemplating this for a long time, but haven't ever done it for a number of reasons. But, I can't take it anymore. I plan to post online for anyone to read, and to attempt to keep myself sane, the daily barrage of bad decisions that are made in the city of Portland from the police level, through the DAs office, to the judges and especially the juries. I won't name names, I have too much respect for all the people just mentioned. But if the public knew the crap that went on day to day, the amount of dangerous people who do dangerous things who are given a free pass everyday, they would fucking lose it. I know I'm about to. And quite frankly, I need to vent.

Todays experience:

Fuck. I can't give the details without keeping everyone unanonymous. To hell with it. Just so everyone knows, a burglar trying to force his way into a family's home, a gangster who had a loaded, stolen gun, and his girlfriend who tried to outrun the police to give the gangster a chance to toss the gun, all WALKED, NO PUNISHMENT, NO JUSTICE (either by DAs or juries making horrible decisions). Happens everyday. The next time you read in the paper that someone got beaten, raped, killed... know that, more than likely, the "system" already could have acted to prevent it but failed.
