“One of the first times I ever performed in front of a big group of people was at my kindergarten graduation. I did, like, a Michael Jackson impersonation as, like, a five year old.

I'm sure it was 'Smooth Criminal.” PeopleYearsFirstsWholeBigsSongFiveGroupsFrontsFirst TimeCriminalsSuitsFive YearsSmoothGlovesKindergartenFive Year OldsBlazersFedoras Author:Chance the Rapper

“Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill it teaches the whole people by example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. To declare that in the administration of the criminal law the end justifies the means - to declare that the Government may commit crimes in order to secure the conviction of a private criminal - would bring terrible retributions.” PeopleIfsMenMayMeanEndsWholeGovernmentLawOrderLibertyTeachTeacherCrimeExampleTerribleIllConvictionCriminalsEvery ManCommitSecureAdministrationJustifyAnarchyContemptInvitesContagiousRetributionLiberty And JusticeCriminal LawEnds Justify The MeansConflicting Opinions Author:Louis D.

“Those who think the information brought out at a criminal trial is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth are fools.

“In representing criminal defendants - especially guilty ones - it is often necessary to take the offensive against the government: to put the government on trial for its misconduct. In law, as in sports, the best defense is often a good offense. The courtroom oath - to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth - is applicable only to witnesses... because the American justice system is built on a foundation of not telling the whole entire truth.” WholeGovernmentLawSportsJusticeTruth IsBuiltFoundationDefenseCriminalsTrialsGuiltyWitnessTelling The TruthOffensiveOffenseOathIn-lawsRepresentingJustice SystemCourtroomWhole TruthNothing But The TruthMisconductAmerican Justice Author:Alan Dershowitz
