One of the problems we face within this country is we have far right and far left extremism. At present the far right extremism seems to be more of the issue but that doesn't mean it will always be. The problem is that these values can sometimes make their way into local judicial systems and create a type of corruption where normal laws and rules don't apply.
Ideology can be a dangerous thing if it leads people to the same conclusions over and over without considering the rights and values of others. As a people we rely on these systems to enforce the law and provide a level of protection. If they work on behalf of a single group, clan, or people it distorts the law and could someday lead to third world strife.
That can change if you are considered "worthy" of being a target for hate and anger (Heightened by religious, racial, ethnic or Good Old Boy considerations). Its not based on the actual person or their merits but perhaps on things such as one's religion, race, who will financially benefit, the "connectedness" of the perpetrators and/or support of a few law enforcement members (The vast majority are doing the right thing but the wrong is praised.).
We would expect our judges to uphold our laws universally and if they default in support of those values it opens a major can of worms. That becomes very important if they consistently default based on their own skewed version of the world. I would then expect outside stakeholders to come in and support our the protections of our Constitution and national values.
(What this situation has done to me has created a level of skepticism that people are willing to do the right thing and they are able to step up against their social networks. That the laws in some places don't matter and you can say what you want, do what you want, and circumvent what you want as long as its against a family that are seen as less worthy or less American. I fell like there is one system trying to do the right thing and one system trying to do the wrong thing and they are running parallel. That system which comes out on top Pro Country or Pro Clan will determine the future of this town in some ways. Whether it will be open to new investments and people or it will be closed off and suffer the fate of many closed nations. I can't even say if that is 100% true but just sort of possible. We can learn from what happens on a local level as to what could happen on a national level. Opening one door versus another. What I can say is I cant afford to trust a system focused on enhancing their own group.)
The problem is that in many cases judges are not investigated or held to account (Its very rare and that is dangerous.) They are above the law and can provide immunity for others who have violated the law. If we found they circumvented the law, held radical ideologies, or consistently punished certain groups (i.e. outsiders) when compared to people within their own social group we should be concerned.
We may also find that the wider society knows there is an issue and has shown a positive and supportive disposition (Could be an indication the judge is working on behalf of a certain group and people know it because they have seen it and/or experienced it prior. Maybe they are just aware. I can't say one way for sure what I can say is what happened here is dangerous, unfair, and intentionally destructive. It put people at risk and no judge should pretend those risks were not there and don't continue forward in many ways. Its irresponsible. I have advocated for what would fix the system and help the perpetrators get help as well as create a level of accountability. None of that seems to matter. What seems to be of most importance is the needs of the perpetrators even when they were highly manipulative and aggressive.). I wonder if deep down they know this group is a problem and they know they are provided a level of immunity for their behaviors (An inherent risk for everyone as we will be here again in a few years when the coast is clear and the hate group is further emboldened through hate immunity.).
That leads us to to our dysfunctional nature of politics and how that impacts our judicial proceedings. I actually hate politics! I think its just one of those things where people are more interested in proving others wrong then it is about finding solutions. That short sightedness encourages to all types of chaos. Sometimes there are breakthroughs and things get done. In general, toxic politics weakens our country and pro solution debating can increase positive adaptations.
Anyway...if I ever run for politics it will be because our nation is really struggling with leadership (Not everyone but there is a enough poor self-serving "leaders" to know that something isn't right with the way things are getting done). Things seem to be sort of broken and we are at a critical juncture where we must step forward into a modern universal society where human capital, innovation, and economic development is going to happen on a bigger digital era scale or we are going to increasingly look non competitive and third world at a time we are going to need to perform at our top (dysfunctional politics, extremism, corruption, ethnic/racial/religious clans, etc.. Hate supporting judges tear at our future! ).
We need to open the opportunities to the best and brightest and not the most connected to ensure we have more solutions to these problems (See how the "connected" have defaulted local systems and that is foreshadowing of what can happen on a national level if we dont correct.). It may be hard to do that if people are socialized into a certain party affiliation, racial or religious perspective and unable to think divergently about solutions. Just pressing a button like a blind money makes no sense whatsoever.
I wrote this article in 2019 prior to an increase in extremism over the past few years. 9 Important Issues if I Run for Politics (Extremism is likely to decline on an official level because it is being debunked but it will also likely move more underground as people become awaere on a root needs level of its danger.). I'm just formalizing my main ideas. I don't think I have the personality to just give people quick sound bites even when I know they aren't likely to be helpful. Or to bend my knee to the gods of ignorance and blind followership. (Chances are I'm likely to become an overeducated dishwasher in our current environment but what is patriotism in todays world anyway? Loyalty to Clan or whole Nation? It's hard to have values when you see the distortion of values in people who should be doing the right things. Sign of the times and there are few willing to stand for something greater. Normalization of hate is a sign of moral and future economic decline. I'm doing my best to provide economic, social, legal, and moral solutions. We just are not ready to hear them; even if they are dumb or not from someone wealthy or powerful. You would think protests, January 6th, international conflict, rise of China, free pass threats to democracy and COVID would get us working together but it hasn't. In many ways we have moved in opposite direction. The proof is in pudding. Now make sure you discount everything I say because I do have a Muslim sounding name. Look I already knew they were immune when started because they checked with officers in their network and local judge before engaging in cleansing behaviors and when they got stumped they went back to the same judge. Then smirked and lied and spread rumors. All legit indicating the local system became fully corrupt and intentionally sought to ethnic cleans people not up to their racial and religious standards. They told me they were setting up my family because we were Muslim; they know nothing of us! Then they moved on to harm my kids. I dont think you can get anymore corrupt than that. I will not be third word cleansed as my genetic line is longer in area than most of theirs and that shouldn't be a requirement of any type. The main perpetrators are acting like nothing happened, feel emboldened and likely looking for the next opportunity. I ask that Federal and State investigators come in and hold this judge and clan accountable. While I had hope people didnt go to jail it looks like they cant correct and the local law no longer functions as intended. I will follow my values and spiritual beliefs while everyone else can follow theirs. Dirty Muslim and "Nigga Baby" kids or not! America must correct this demon. We either do or we dont! History will likely be written by such choices in a collective level. People must determine their loyalties to their clan or to their country. How dare they put my kids in harm's way for racism and financial gain! We are a nation of laws and if we aren't I would say we got so much work to do fixing it that generations will need to push for correcting the torch we smothered out in our lifetimes.)
Anyway I wrote this......
1.) Equality of Opportunity. Began to change the political and economic environment to ensure all people have opportunities to succeed and social mobility is likely for those who work hard.
2.) Higher Education/School Reform. To ensure each of our children, young adults, and seasoned employees have new and innovative skills that push economic growth.
3.) Global Competitiveness-Economic Development and Innovative Manufacturing. Bring back manufacturing and innovative development through the creation of a high tech society. Global cluster management development for better global performance.
4.) Environmental/Clean Technology. Limit pollution through innovative business that reduces waste and finds green practices economically-socially desirable.
5.) Income Disparity and Business Development. Ensure small and medium businesses are easy to start and have an opportunity to grow. Change the legislative environment to have balance of different size businesses and thereby create a more resilient economy.
6.) Children and Development. The first 10 years of life are critically important. If we can nurture, protect, and enhance our children during this time we have set them off in the world with a "success" mindset.
7.) National security, military readiness, and terrorism. Updating our military through low and high tech training. Implement robotics as an enhancement.
8.) Police and Justice Reform. To enhance policing positions and opportunities based on new metrics of performance that encourage wisdom, reform, and cultural awareness. Hold criminals accountable while ensuring that non violent crimes are reviewed for reform purposes.
I would add something about judicial integrity and the need to ensure checks and balances if judges make decisions that are in support of certain clans, racial, ethnic ideologies without regard to evidence. I would think that the judicial system itself would need to hold their own accountable to help ensure the independence of the Judicial branch. We have three legs of government to help create checks and balances. There may be a way to encourage this independence but with a level of internal protections. We have seen recently judges take political positions that have little to do with protecting the public or relying on evidence. That risks destroying the foundations of trust that can cause bigger societal issues. For example, if extreme hate behaviors are given a free pass based on erroneous loyalties or distorting the purpose and scope of our American systems that would through necessity create legitimate distrust of at least local and possibly national institutions based on necessity. That becomes even more true if perpetrators knew they were immune prior to engaging in hate and their is a history of short sticking targets through inappropriate criteria.
9.) International Relationships. A collaborative approach to international relations. That process also includes holding "bad actors" accountable through increased pressure on reform. Fair economic policies that allow the U.S. to be competitive and maintain its position at the center of the distribution system.
