Land of justice variants in different states land of where real justice begins..eternal debate too much of it injures the cow that feeds it young too little of it leaves indignation among the stung Land of the free within reason free to express myself, vote for positive effects not free to avoid its long term defects... that brands the petty thief along with his hardened relative... actual justice is poor relief Three strikes and you're out away from bat or any free run but sport is different from the application of law when a marked man reunites with society years later there's one large flaw... All the time he had to build a life is gone those years can never be replace his song a loved one's life can't be replaced either a bottle of wine is not the same as cider yet the family of victims rightly sings a different tune would it just be better to leave earth for life on the moon?

"Land of the free within reason free to express myself, vote for positive effects not free to avoid its long term deffects... that brands the petty thief along with his hardened relative..." I enjoyed this phrase the best. You write of truth. In this land of the free...we seldom are. quatro |

all this pain and sadness I just can't understand it, must be nice to be an astronaut and be able to leave the planet |

Quattro, Thanks for reading in between the lines Passing Shadow, would have liked to feel the sensation of seeing the earth from the moon as Armstrong did..what an insignificant speck compared to the greater picture. |
