    Unfortunately, it cannot be said often enough: none of the guilty parties will ever be held accountable unless U.S. citizens finally stand up for the victims and for themselves.

    The U.S. legal system is a farce, rotten to the core, as this particularly repugnant case - and many others - demonstrates.

    This system will never reform itself - not even under a Democratic administration, assuming elections are even held anymore.

    There is no alternative but to accept the hardships of resistance if justice and a halfway decent life are ever to be possible in the richest country in the world.

      A couple of people were, but the secret service managed to prevent them from fully and permanently expressing the level of their displeasure.

    Jim McGovern is some serious nominative determinism. He and Joe Representative were made for the job.
