The penance or vengeance I get is in money terms and never quite the revenge people wanted and rarely ever complete, but it is a form of retribution. What do I mean? If someone crashes their car into you and hurts you or your family or just

If you live in a rural venue, the quality of justice you will receive is far less rewarding than you would receive for the identical event in Philly or Pittsburgh. Outside the major cities in Pennsylvania, voters are fairly conservative or far less democratic and hence liberal in their

So, for example, the president would not bash his own civil servants or judges would be policed by their brethren or superiors. Even judges
