Francis Mancini's column today made me reflect on the image of
the JUDGE GLARING DOWN FROM THE BENCH : You are a man of no great social
prominence charged with rape. You deny the crime and show no remorse
for the logical reason that you think yourself innocent. The sanctimonious
judge finds you insolent and despicable and is determined to make you
pay for it. The judge -drunk with power - imagines that he has a divine
mission to smite the wicked.
We know now a little more about those traffic court judges . How
much damage can be done by arrogance combined with incompetence ! I
have had just very limited experience with them. But what classless
sloppy BUMS !
My observation is that everywhere entrenched power is corrupt. Nine
out of ten unions in this country are run by Johnny Friendly types .
The movie " On the Waterfront " is rated up there with the best. Sometimes
Hollywood tells the truth !
The mighty fall when simple people begin to question their legitimacy :
" You're no good, dirt rotten, dime store THUG ! And I'm proud what I
did to you " ( Marlon Brando line )
Lately I see the Johnny Friendly mug everywhere !
