quote:

Fire breaks out at Tucson, Ariz. hotel in 1972, killing 29 people. A 16-year-old who was nearby is convicted "on the basis of little more than that proximity and trial evidence that 'black boys' like to set fires." Much later, evidence emerges suggesting that the fire was not caused by arson. (Prosecutors also allegedly withheld evidence of the same.) After 42 years of imprisonment, prosecutors offer him immediate release if he pleads guilty to the original charges. He accepts. Can he sue about the original prosecution? Ninth Circuit: No, he just pleaded guilty. Dissent: "Far from being the product of a new, constitutionally conducted second trial, [the man's] second conviction was the product of his desperate circumstances. In his 60's, he faced acceptance of the plea offer or waiting years for a habeas petition to work its way through the courts."

Isn't the purpose of justices to like, create justice??

January, 2019 March for Life
Informational Letter

Dear CCH Parents,

Our school annually participates in the March for Life event in Washington D.C. I have witnessed our level of participation having grown from 84 students in 2008, to 213 students in 2017. Annually, our Colonels represent nearly one quarter of the Diocese of Covington supporters.

On a daily basis our students are given opportunities to live their faith. They include inserting the words “born and unborn” at the end of the Pledge of Allegiance; have the opportunity to join faculty members who lead the rosary every Tuesday and Thursday morning (7:30) in the school chapel; attend Friday morning Mass (7:10) in the chapel with our Chaplain, Fr. Michael Hennigen; participate in the Sacrament of Reconciliation twice a week during lunch periods; and a monthly Mass (8:00) at Holy Name Church on Auburn Avenue in Cincinnati, followed by a rosary service in front of the Planned Parenthood center just down the street.

Once again this year we offer our students the opportunity to participate in this most worthwhile event, the 46th anniversary of the March for Life, demonstrating our support for all Life, “born and unborn.” Upon our arrival in Washington D.C. we meet with Bishop Foys and other diocesan pilgrims to celebrate Mass before joining the hundreds of thousands of people from around the nation to march in support of all life, ending the march in front of the Supreme Court building as a means to express our opposition to the Roe vs. Wade decision.

<logistics about attending>

Sincerely,

Rick Flesch
Personal Counselor
Faculty Moderator, March for Life

So of course Pence made a surprise appearance, along with a video message from Trump.

It depends on the administration. I went to a private high school too. I remember one football game, some students started a classist cheer. The next Monday, we got an all school assembly where the athletic director chewed out the whole school and said that if anything like that happened again he'd prefer to forfeit the season than allow that kind of behavior to continue.

Twitter is hidden, email box has an auto-reply out of office, and the phone is busy, good luck getting through. You'd have better luck contacting the diocese of Kentucky.

Unfortunately judging by my experiences with Catholicism, the diocese will close ranks and shield the bad apples and nothing will happen.

Catholic media has been really hyping how many people came in to express God's love of the unborn so these optics showing how much it was actually kids bussed in who later blew off steam by being extremely hateful has to be annoying. (Probably almost as annoying as having to pay off yet another child rape claim.)

The MAGA crowd values above all, strength.

They're so hosed up as people that they equate "strength" with "being an rear end in a top hat". It's basically that simple, really. Doesn't really matter the flavor of rear end in a top hat, racist or just generic-type, they find strength in being an rear end in a top hat. Morality isn't a factor because morality doesn't allow you to be an rear end in a top hat. Can't be strong if you have morals.

And that's how their kids are raised.

I figured going to the Church itself would be more likely than the school to generate results so I looked up that information. Seems I wasn't the first one to find out who the local bishop is:

Back in the day my mother told me she voted for W instead of Gore because if they got mugged, W seemed like he would put up a fight while Gore would try to talk his way out, which explained everything to me about the conservative mindset.
