Those wo would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither
...Ben Franklin

Not quite; it's '...will deserve or get NEITHER' [safety or liberty]

An important distinction, considering we're living it!

Here is one from our dysfunctional government. I read something like this every day on the first page of the news paper. It could at be the county, city, state of federal level but it is all the same. "We don't know how this happened but we are going to do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of this and do what ever it takes to make sure it never happens again." Today it was the Colorado Lottery. They knew the funds have been misappropriated for the last 10 years and are just now addressing the problem...betting that is 6 months not one thing will be done and someone in the gov't will still be lining their pockets with the states money. The other day it was the IRS. Congress comes to mind as well. What a Country. Make sure that you pay your taxes....they need the money so they can piss it away.

When the chicken is judge, the cockroach gets no justice

This is an excellent summation of our current miserable excuse for a 'justice' system.
