This is another reason I simply cannot support Rudy Giuliani or any other prosecutor anymore as they are given far too much latitude in whether to prosecute, or not, and it gives them god-like power over their fellow man and they cannot resist the infatuation that power gives them.

What's the alternative? Surely you want prosecutors. Otherwise, there is no way to enforce the law. And we can't take away their discretion.

I suppose you could have them draw names out of a hat to prosecute that day, but other than a system that forces them to prosecute someone and not another, I don't see how you can take their judgment out of the equation.

Well, I can't argue with your point of view, other than to say that the voters in each local and state jurisdiction needs to better inform themselves about the attitude of each dude and dudette running for such a powerful office to pop the question of how they will adjudge the gun control and the supposed EnvironMental Crimes prosecutions while in office. The voters need to exercise better judgement!!!

They should also better question what these people's oaths to protect and defend our constitutions means to them as individuals and what their intentions are. Because, once they're in office, it's Katie bar the damned door as far as some of these runaway prosecutors and runaway Grand Juries inspired by these rabid prosecutors are concerned.

Look what that jerk prosecutor did to Tom Delay down there in your fair state!!! Look what jerks like Eliot Spitzer have done in NY state!!! Not to mention Niphong...
