What do I think about the legal system?
The first thought that pops in my head when I’m asked that a question is that the legal system is messed up. Though I’m only basing this opinion on what I’ve seen on TV, heard on the radio, and whats in movies. If I were to stop and think about it the question I would realize that without the legal system the U.S. would be a different place maybe a place I wouldn’t want to be in. Yes, the legal system has it flaws but that is because it was created by people who have their flaws. From what I’ve seen and not experienced the legal system is full of many, many, many holes which people tend to pass through. Most of the people that I hear about leaping through the holes are rich people who have enough money to exploit them. In the news I mostly hear about how people who I think should have been punished severally just slipped through a hole and gotten off barely touched. Take the MySpace hoax that mother who helped her daughter play a prank on a young girl which eventually lead to her demise.The mother got off with a fine and a slap on the wrist no major jail time just a fine. Incidents like that lead me and other people to believe that the legal system is flawed. What I don’t get is that people know that the legal system is flawed but don’t do anything about it. They are either like me and they are unaware of what actions can be done taken to solve the problem or they are not willing to do anything about it but complain.

Myspace Hoax
What do I think about the MySpace hoax compared to the film? What should be done about the situation?
As I see it the MySpace hoax was an unnecessary prank carried out by unintelligent individuals that eventually lead to the dead of another young girl. Just because the little girl of Lori Drew didn’t like the Megan Meier isn’t a good reason to play around with her head and feelings. In the MSNBC article I was reading it stated that people knew Megan Meier was emotionally detached unstable and depressed and was also taking medicine for it. I think that the mother made a bad decision to help her thirteen years old daughter get back at another girl ,who they had spent time with as families at activities, just because she up and didn’t like her. The mother of Megan Meier is right in pleading that Lori Drew gets the max sentence which would be 3 years in prison and $300,000 fine. To me that would be nowhere near what I would want to see happen to mother daughter and co-worker who all had a part in the hoax. The fact that the mother has no remorse for messing with Megan Meier is bad and disgusting but that she would actually go bragging to people that she is making a 13 year old hormonal teenager fall for a fake boy is just sad. But before I go slandering this woman I must keep in mind that all my information is coming from a source that will do or say anything to sell and get reader. I only have the sad side of the mother and I don’t have the complete story of what happen just bits and mostly what the news wants you to hear.

What do you think about lawyers?
I think that a lawyer is a person that has a job to do whether it be moral or not it’s just a job. I think that a lawyer can be moral without having to actually be completely amoral. Let me explain, a lawyer defends a client that has committed a murder and the lawyer has a strong hunch that that person committed the murder. Well if the lawyer is good at doing their job they would put their morals aside to become amoral in a sense and defend that client that he accepted the money from in the first place. I think no less of a lawyer that can do this some would feel a lot safer with them on the basis that they would be loyal to their client. I also think that the lawyers that are able to do this are not entirely moral but they get the job done. People in their life do things that are not moral and I don’t think that just because a person chooses to do that for a living they are amoral and bad. Though I may not like what some lawyers do and how they do it I understand that it is what they do it’s a job and its how they get things done. I also think that lawyers that that only do moral things are nice they might get the job done and you might be able to trust them more, the people that do amoral things to get the job done will always win out until they are caught. Overall I think that the lawyers are only doing what has been done for many of year and shouldn’t be viewed negativity just because the job demands amoral actions to win.
