Crime and punishment
Elder Statesman: Started the wars.
President: Continued the wars
Veteran: Shot II civilians from a helicopter just for fun in one of the wars.
35 years in prison: Posted video of the helicopter shooting online.
This is why I’m currently re-thinking my position on “Do the RIght Thing”. Why should I do the “Right Thing” if it’s only going to get me into trouble?
Hey, Mr. Rall! Can you do one on how putting Larry Summers in charge of regulating Wall Street is like putting A-Rod in charge of MLB’s substance abuse problem?
I’m waiting for some RWNJ to whine about Manning endangering American lives without mentioning the casualties from 2 illegal, immoral and stupid (the list of appropriate adjectives is quite long) wars.
This one was perfect, thank you very much. Your comics always remind me of a quote by Noam Chomsky about speaking truth to power. I’m paraphrasing but he said “We don’t need to speak truth to power, the people in power know the truth already. It’s the powerless that need to know the truth.” Thank you very much for this comic, you should win an award for it.

In the US, there is a legal system. There is all too rarely a justice system.

There isn’t room in any cartoon for all the criminals involved here.
