    You see what greedy, anti-choice, pro-establishment b****es the government teachers are.

    You know that your ideology is bull**** when no one can tell if you're trolling or arguing.

    Still scratching my head trying to figure out how a prison employee union can make a profit by excessively punishing minors for petty offenses.

    1. This mofo of a judge ruined people's lives. His actions call for cruel and unusual punishment - the death penalty is too good for him.
    2. They need to get the whole ring behind this.

    Somebody called out libertarianism for this? Bite your tongue. If we had a libertarian society we wouldn't have a prison complex and a war on drugs *cough* racist *cough* to begin with.

    Bash republicans for this all you want, but leave the small govt folk out of it please.

    Did anyone else notice that there was a dramatic reduction in juvenile recidivism? The guy should be punished for taking kickbacks, but his sentencing was apparently much more effective that normal.

    We might not have a war on drugs but I presume a libertarian society isn't the same as an an anarchy and would still have a police force and prisons. Even under a libertarian society you could still have corruption like this.

    In a libertarian world, what the judge did would not be illegal, nor regulated.

    It would be the norm.
