Secord Gets Probation
- Share via
Who took the blindfold off Lady Justice? How can a “justice” system say to Secord, a known criminal involved in multi-nation illegal activity (which murdered thousands of innocent people in Nicaragua), that prison would be “too harsh”?
In contrast, hundreds of loyal Americans unselfishly giving their time, energy and physical comfort to call attention to major evils in U.S. foreign policy--specifically arming oppressive genocidal governments--face the possibility of prison and a fine exceeding Secord’s $50!
What might the sentence have been if Secord had been a black or a Latino deliberately lying to Congress, arrogantly flouting a U.S. law, and becoming a millionaire at the cost of U.S. credibility?
Is Lady Justice being raped?
