If he survives taxpayers will be on the hook for another 45 years room and board, medicines and whatever else he can dream up.

From my profile page:

CHILD SUPPORT

The fundamental child support amount awarded to a primary custodial parent shall be:
1. half the amount to cover housing costs a single person would not normally pay, which might be:
a. when the divorce/separation was filed at least two months before a covered child entered full-time schooling,
half the difference between the HUD two-bedroom fair market rent and the area’s HUD one-bedroom fair market rent,
for each gender of covered child at birth,
b. when the divorce/separation was filed at least two months after a covered child entered full-time schooling,
half the cost difference between the family’s current home, in terms of rent or PITI, and the area’s HUD one-bedroom fair market rent,
2. half the SNAP maximum amount per child, for food, increased to 70% if the custodial person is habitually gainfully employed
3. half the amount necessary to buy health coverage for the children, calculated on a 30-day month basis if not paid monthly,
4. four percent of the non-custodial parent’s income on their most current federal income tax return, with shared income being rationally apportioned,
5. half of out-of-pocket child health care costs to the extent that they exceed 50% of the amounts promptly paid under (4) during the prior 12 months, payable as financially reasonable,
6. half of prudent family home repair costs to the extent that they exceed 50% of the amounts promptly paid under (4) during the prior 12 months, payable as financially reasonable.

The judicially determined child support amount awarded to a primary custodial parent need not be the fundamental child support amount, but all variations must be justified in writing by the judge.

When an increased child support amount change is justified, a reasonable notice period of at least 30 days shall normally be in effect unless specifically judicially waived.

The amount of the judicially determined child support in excess of the fundamental child support amount shall be repayable to the providing party as shall normally be judicially ordered when all covered children have reached 18 and can be primarily responsible for themselves.

Surprised his fellow inmates didn’t do that by now themselves.

From my profile page:

AFFORDABLE LEGAL SERVICES

Final two-year higher education programs and licensing options would be provided for independent criminal defense law practice at some state universities.

LOWER COST CRIMINAL JUSTICE

Accused persons would be given a court date, and for non-violent crimes the alternative choice of avoiding trial by serving time in a penalty time room. The arresting officer would set the number of penalty time hours based on state guidelines. The magistrate may change the number of hours upon the request of the accused. To encourage serving time, the hours served in the first week would receive a 100% bonus, going down 20% by week. The penalty time room system would allow accused persons to maintain employment and would allow governments to avoid paying for defense counsel and jail room & board.

Non-violent crimes such as shoplifting might be punished by strapping substantial and visually obvious weights on convicted persons.

Criminal trials would normally start in the afternoon to allow most defendants to affordably hire defense counsel for merely one day.

CREDIT/DEBIT CARD BAIL

Persons accused only of non-violent crimes might be able to be bonded out by credit/debit card bail. The amounts would be set by the magistrate and might range from $100 to court costs plus alleged damage/theft amounts.

After gender reassignment surgery “she” just might sue to be reassigned to a women’s prison.

HOW CAN ANYONE VOTE FOR A DEM?

The 14th amendment says "equal application of the law"

That is an imaginary quote.

I doubt that would happen. If it could, the democrats would have impeached Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito, Robert’s, Kavenaugh and Barrett as they want to badly.

That is an imaginary quote.

Memory is not so good as it once was.

"equal protection of the laws..."

In context, same thing.

Now do you care to address my point regarding how we all get equal protection of the laws when some people can get exceptionally good results from the laws while other people get exceptionally poor results from the laws?

How is it equal when the wealthy can hire the best lawyers, and also why should the lawyer have any effect on the law?

It is clearly unequally applied.

"equal protection of the laws..."

The concepts of equal protection and equal application of the law are closely related but distinct. In no context are they the same thing, and they are not interchangeable terms.

Equal Protection of the Law is enshrined in the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. It mandates that no state shall deny any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. It imposes a burden on states to ensure that laws do not discriminate against individuals or groups. Essentially, it requires that laws treat similarly situated persons equally.

Equal Application of the Law ensures that laws are applied uniformly and fairly by courts and administrative bodies. It aims to prevent arbitrariness in the enforcement of laws, ensuring that no one is above the law and that everyone is subject to the same legal standards.

In summary, while equal protection focuses on the content and fairness of the laws themselves, equal application of the law emphasizes the consistent and unbiased enforcement of those laws.

Unless some judge thinks so, then they are exactly the same.

In summary, while equal protection focuses on the content and fairness of the laws themselves, equal application of the law emphasizes the consistent and unbiased enforcement of those laws.

And should it not be the purpose of the legal system to do both?

The "All men are created equal..." line which so many people want to mention regarding slavery, should invoke the corollary that "all men should be treated equally before the law", yet what we see in practice is a great disparity between those who can hire the best trickster lawyers and those who cannot; Between those who have influence and power, and those who do not.

No judge ever has, and you cite none.

Nothing supports your "quoting" terms "from" the Constitution which do not actually exist in the Constitution.

The "All men are created equal..." line

... does not come from the Constitution or any other law. It comes from a document penned while the states were still colonies of the king. It was penned by Thomas Jefferson while he was tended to by his slave, Jupiter. Jeffrerson did not free his slaves, just as Washington, Madison, Monroe et al. never freed their slaves.
