Again, just because there isn't a victim doesn't mean there wasn't a crime; at least that is how the legal system sees it. Right back to the seat belt analogy.
But that is not how the legal system works in the US. He prosecutes cases in the name of the state with the states permission.
The system, like most other systems, has flaws. If people want to change the flaws, then they should do so in the proper manor.
But as a prosecutor, he gets to make that choice! That is his job! It doesn't matter who agrees and who doesn't! He gets to make the choice, not us!
And my job title comment was directed at those who make general statements about police officers and lawyers. They act like the majority are scum...
Many people, including people who violate the law, do not "agree" that there is any wrong when they are in front of a court. Many people have a mentality that if there is no victim there is no crime.
I personally do not agree with the seat belt law. It puts no one but me in danger. Do I...
Well... CJC is hiring I hear! And UCA is hiring according to one of their guys who was deadheading with me this evening from ORD. I hear they hire at low times.
Its turning around quickly and pilots will be in need. My advice would be to pick a regional company you want to work for, find out...
DC-8's?!?!?!? I see those in South America from time to time. Never been in one. I hear they are beasts to fly. I fly with a german captain that used to fly them for DHL. I have heard numerous "let me tell ya how the Douglas aircraft would have handled this" type of stories. Never flown one. I...
And that is what scares me. We had a regional guy jumpseat with us to ORD not long ago and we started talking about how we all got into flying. Then came the airplanes we have flown conversation. He has never flown anything that didn't have glass. He went to a certificate mill and got a job with...
Yeah, I know. It sucks. I had to order a video from Sportys about the G-1000 to learn the thing. The CFI said he could teach me easily, but I am not going to spend a ton of $$$ on him teaching me on the ground when I can watch a video and read some material while eating dinner and relaxing at...
I did fly the airbus for a period and I liked it. I did not care for the systems, but I liked the side stick. I didn't think I would be able to adjust to it and went into training with an attitude that I wouldn't like it. But honestly, after my first couple of flights in the sim, I was surprised...
Im saying I think that all the screaming about wanting this right and this right does no good on here. If people are doing the same in the real world, then great! But going on and on and on with the subject on here doesn't change any policy. If someone is for the constitution and you feel you...
At least there are some people in the government, even conservative republicans, who can think with reason and force accountability and structure on people. You want to live like it is 1800, and its not. In 1800 people, generally speaking and according to historical evidence, people respected...
