I think that's the real United States of America story.

The real Paris story is in The Illiad.

The hostility is at a justice system that plays favorites. When I see it locally it's hard to explain the frustration on the board. But here is a case other people are familiar with and are in a position to accurately judge whether my frustration is warranted.

Riiiiiiight, that is why there is so much coverage about all the white collar crime that get light sentences and off completely, real crime, not traffic court.
All that coverage and anger about the real injustice in our courts in the news... how do we get news about anything else?
LOL!!!

You're confusing the hostility for the system with the opportunily to express it. If people were presented with the cases you mention there would be the same disgust. I don't see any torches & pitchforks chasing her down the street, just flashbulbs.
