So very true.... ! Lawlessness in itself is criminal.... giving it a solemn welcome is even more criminal... Very succinct thoughts Kim !

Most recidivist criminals know the system better than the lawmakers Kim, so they expect and get the red carpet treatment, cheers David

I couldn't agree more and politics plays a great deal in it. It's sad to see the country going down this path...

WOW, Kim, This is undoubtedly the most pleasing thing I've read today, and yeah, layout not only the red carpet but much more for people notorious for lawlessness.
