I am permitted to petition the government for "redress of grievance." The word "government" is broad and not specific. But the word "grievance" is not broad and is specifically related to whatever case I bring before them...whoever them is.

At that point in time, the governmental body to whom I bring my grievance has an obligation to act according to their office. While the wheels of justice grind slowly in the legislative and the judicial, the whole point of an executive is that he can order an immediate remedy.

The word "redress" does not mean "final solution" as I understand it. It leans more in the direction of: "a process for remedy."

Therefore, the immediate granting of a process of remedy is in the hands of whatever branch is approached. The final solution would be in the hands of "government."

"a process for remedy."

Our government failed. A fellow Christian was murdered by a supposed Christian President, and by supposed Christian judges.

Life is valuable, and the loss of Terri, when she had a loving family wishing to care for her, this is a tragedy that those in the facility, in the police, did not stop the murder.
