Once you hand ANY power to ANYONE in government, they will abuse that power and expand their authority, just as a small businessman tries to expand his business. The problem is we are dealing with the government, and the victim is ALWAYS the people. The American legal system has beaten the abuse of even Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. Our own conviction rate, being nearly 95-100%, stands in contrast to even Adolf Hitler, who had a conviction rate of about 90% at his notorious People’s Court under Roland Freisler (pictured in the center). Roland Freisler was the most bloodthirsty of all the head judges to rule that court. Even Wikipedia writes: “The number of death sentences rose sharply under Freisler’s stewardship. Approximately 90% of all proceedings ended with sentences of death or life imprisonment, the sentences frequently having been determined before the trial. Between 1942 and 1945, more than 5,000 death sentences were handed out, and of these, 2,600 through the court’s First Senate, which Freisler headed. Thus, Freisler alone was responsible, in his three years on the court, for as many death sentences as all other senate sessions of the court together in the entire time the court existed, between 1934 and 1945.” Our conviction rate today of about 95-100% in federal court has surpassed the most notorious court Hitler maintained in determining if you were Jewish or any part thereof, which had a 90% conviction rate. That is not something we should be proud of. There can be no liberty when the government controls the courts. Socialism ends up being the excuse used to exert power and nothing more.
