Rated ‘C’ for Circuit Court

Retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor announced this week she is involved with the development of a computer game for children that will help educate them on how the courts work.

Children will have endless hours of fun learning about the courts as they file for dismissal of charges, file for an appeal, file for a writ of certiorari and listen to hours of droning in a language not in their native tongue. Kids will have to watch out that they don’t get slammed by a gavel.

Uh oh, a hung jury! Be careful you don’t perjure yourself! Watch out for the sneaky lawyers! Weeeee!

More from HombresSeriamentes.com, while the Mexican Navy (who knew they had one?) is helping us fight the good fight, not all of Mexico is behind la guerra a los animales.

“Blacky” the burro has been released from jail serving just three days of its sentence, after being tried and convicted of assault in battery (on humans) and found guilty in a court of law. This blog is outraged at this miscarriage of justice. This sets a terrible example for animals, and suggests that they are above the law because they aren’t humans.

We say, if they are not humans, they can certainly be tried as enemy combatants.
