More Federal Fuckery


Yes this is supposed to be a music blog, but I'm more concerned with speaking about what needs to be talked about. Earlier this week Major League baseballs all-time leader in home runs, Barry Bonds, was indicted on federal charges of perjury and obstruction of justice. This really made me sick to my stomach when I seen this because it's another case of federal agents doing whatever they want. For years they've been trying to take Barry Bonds down on charges of steroid usage, even though he passed every test he took in his career. Even if he did "juice" up is it ethical for a man to face 30 years in prison over a sport issue? No! The main thing that gets me is the time that has passed since the initial allegation. It's not fair to any person to be under public and private scrutiny without being able to defend themselves, when in reality it's supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. How does the government find the time and money to investigate atheletes and rappers, when there are more important issues going on like wars, nationwide race riots, and disturbing issues like the rape of Megan Williams. This is scary that the judiciary can appear and dissapear at their own pleasure. Celebrity Lynchings -BH
