I hold the humans perpetuating these lies accountable today. In the court of public opinion, that is.
You are talking about a system of law which you agree to, but what about other systems of law?
What about the changes to our own systems - more draconian every year?
How many innocent and relatively innocent people are in your (US) jails?
How many governments in the world aren't corrupt?
Are you speaking for yourself or the whole country and world?
Or do you have a trust in world authorities?
Are you aware of the atrocities committed by all the governments of the world?
