Crime American Style


      While your friendly mobsters at JP Morgan Chase, the nation’s largest criminal organization, 1) have agreed to pay $410 million to make charges of power market manipulation go away, 2) are looking at arrests over that $6.2 billion London Whale trading loss scandal, and 3) remain under investigation over a) some kind of Libor fixing cover-up, and b) Presbyterian Mafia stockpiling of commodities targeted in industrywide price-rigging operations, we’re now told that 4) a criminal probe is finally underway into the part JP Morgan Chase goons played in the sale of those bundled subprime mortgage securities that caused the 2007-2008 Financial Apocalypse which took down the civilized world and Iceland.

      Comments from Washington lawmakers are strangely absent in the total lack of media hoopla surrounding these Kingpins and their archcriminal activities.

      Meanwhile, after staging civil demonstrations in support of street thugs pounding neighborhood watch heads against the pavement, the Justice Department announced that street drug dealers are spending too much time in prison and not enough time selling drugs on the streets, and so, will no longer be charged with smalltime drug crimes over street-level criminal drug dealing activities.  Efforts to take away our guns so street thugs can just go ahead and shoot us all dead while they shoot up our children remain on the back burner at Justice for now.

      Oh, and on Monday the NY Times reported that the settlement of a Facebook privacy case allotted nothing to the plaintiffs and about $2.3 million to their lawyers.


      What in God’s name has happened to the nation we were born in?  Lady Liberty weeps for the victimized children of her teeming masses.
