I am also willing for you to go to jail.

And I'm guessing the judge also plays racquetball or something.

This reminds me of those mini Christian comics that always ended with some horrific cartoon of hell or people suffering damnation. I used to read those as a Christian kid, before I grew our of religion. they were made to get you afraid of god, and remind you that god loves you, but will annihilate you and toss you in a torture dungeon if you disobey him.

Ah, the jack chick tracts. Nothing like a good, puritanical hell raising inside of a child's head.

I read quite a few of them and the only sentence I gained from them was "the standard is good behavior, not other people". That's it. All the works of that professional writer/moralizer over his entire life and I think he had only one single idea worth remembering. Which makes me think he probably plagiarized it.

That's an absurd comparison! Trump unfortunately exists.

After the 2016 election, there was a panel discussion with all the creators of the top political TV dramas. Veep, House Of Cards, The West Wing, Scandal, and others. All the participants said the same thing; if they'd had a character who'd said that he didn't think POWs deserved respect the networks and sponsors would have demanded that he be reviled and hated by all Americans.
