When justice stinks – literally

Sometimes our judicial system needs to learn to leave well enough alone.

Like the drug suspect running from police who was found hiding in … a pool of liquid manure.

And neck-deep at that … for at least an hour!

This, my friends, is not a problem.

The punk should have been allowed to stay in the stinky lagoon as long as he wanted.

In fact, maybe a while longer than he wanted. It would teach him a lesson that no jail cell could match.

As it is, the news story said he became “combative” when cops tried to arrest him and had to be hit twice with a stun gun.

Yikes. How’d you like to be the officer who had to ’cuff that punk?

Meanwhile, in related news, the great state of New Jersey is shutting down the last two rest-stop bathrooms on non-toll roads.

The guv says the state is broke and can’t afford the $270,000 per year needed to keep ’em open.

Gee whiz, what ever happened to priorities? Doesn’t the gummint know that when you gotta go, you gotta go?

If nothing else, state officials should replace the restrooms with low-maintenance alternatives.

Like an open patch of grass.

It wouldn’t be as private, but think of how much you’d save on water with no flushing needed.
