“The real danger to the country — the real danger to democracy, as I say — is the progressive agenda,” Barr said, calling the prosecution of Trump for illegally covering up hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels a “perversion of justice.”
When I named my blog “Pervert Justice” I certainly meant that to be inclusive of a call for justice for perverts, but I was heavily influenced by the past history of labeling what we now would call just causes as “perversions of justice.”
In particular, the Persons Case, arising out of Canadian women’s efforts to run for and be seated in the dominion parliament, and Bowers v. Hardwick affected how I felt about the phrase used to demonize women in Canada with the temerity to suggest that “persons” included women, queer people who thought that the right of sexual privacy cemented by Eisenstadt v. Baird ought to apply equally to any and all adults having private consensual sex regardless of sexual orientation, and so, so many others. Black people in particular have suffered denial of humanity routinely in US history, and efforts to change that, just like efforts to extend Eisenstadt or declare women to be part of the group “persons,” were frequently met with outrage at the “perversion of justice” that would occur if US laws enforced racial justice.
To a radical left-wing tranny, it seemed that over the course of centuries when mainstream comment labeled decisions “perversions of justice” the result was much more often good than bad.
So pervert justice, I exhort. Let us do what seems contrary to the very nature of the US criminal justice system and hold the rich and powerful equally to account. I do not differ at all with Barr in that prosecution of Trump for actual crimes likely performed is a perversion of the well-traveled course of American justice. I only disagree with his insistence that that’s a bad thing.
Justice for perverts! Jail for corrupt, disgusting, traitors like BB and PAB!
Raising a glass to pervert justice!
