Justice for ALL :
And, again-does the punishment they gave Kelly fit the alleged crime?

Furthermore, it is not the business of the police to dish out punishments for crimes. No matter what the suspected crime, the police are not supposed to jump on the suspect with sadistic glee. The only thing they are allowed to do is to bring the suspect before a court of law. That is all they are supposed to do. But somehow people, including cops themselves, have got these things mixed up in their heads. They think cops can and should dish out ad hoc punishments right on the spot.

I wonder what caused this confusion of justice? Was it all the television that for decades romanticized the notion of angst-ridden hero cops taking justice into their own hands? For decades Americans have been indoctrinated by television to this completely bogus view of law enforcement.

Remember the case of the young man who got his head slammed into a concrete wall by a cop who had mistakenly identified him as the perpetrator of a violent crime. The young man will now spend the rest of his days in a vegetative state due to severe injuries to his scull and spinal chord. What completely validates my hypothesis about there being a massive confusion about law enforcement is that some people are trying to excuse even this perversion of justice by saying that the cops did the right thing but to the wrong man. The real moral of the story is that now, instead of one life destroyed, there are two lives unnecessarily destroyed forever.
