Police shootings, mass shootings, terrorism, and humanity's descent into madness

[fructal]

I'm sorry to revive this thread, but I feel compelled to add another serious issue to the discussion: corruption. I mean, look at this: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/witness...enendez-trial/. Gold bars and large sums of cash. And they want us to trust the politicians.
If Menendez is convicted, there's always the possibility that he might appeal the decision. Appeals can be based on a number of factors, as shown here, including potential jury bias or misconduct during the trial. It's important that our justice system remains fair and impartial, guaranteeing that even those in power are held accountable without prejudice. That's what I hope for, at least.
