Get Mad
Posted by Wyoh | Filed under Non-Freedoms, Oddly Not Satire
Last week we learned that the guy who made that anti-Muslim film is going to prison for a year. It is apparently now illegal to embarrass this administration. What I find even more shocking is the apathy my friends express. Their shrugs would make Atlas blush. They tell me he’s an idiot who deserved to go to jail because he violated his parole. These are people who probably smoked a joint yesterday and have committed a handful of felonies in the past week, but all of a sudden they’re sanctimonious about parole violations.
I don’t think these people honestly believe he got what he deserved. I think they’re pretending it was legit because to ponder that we are a nation under arrest is too scary. I find their apathy scarier, because if we don’t stand for something, we’ll fall for anything.
As they say, if you’re not angry, then you’re not paying attention. Read the whole thing.

I’m not angry, yet, because some information is missing. How often do people who are on parole for using false ID get busted for using a false name in a non-monetary situation and what is the normal penalty for that? Is his penalty for using a false name under those circumstances outrageous or in line with normal penalties for same?
