I used to like Law and Order. Now I only watch re-runs late at night when I can’t sleep. I’m so glad I missed Friday’s season premiere when they jumped on Eric Holder’s “prosecute Bush administration officials” band wagon.
I have a few suggestions for Law and Order story lines. Prosecuting community organizations that receive state and federal funding, while counseling pimps and hos on running a brothel would be timely and interesting. Here’s another one: going after Congressmen for cheating on their taxes and rent control fraud. And prosecuting an Obama administration official for failing to report the sexual abuse of a child sure would be juicy. But I’m sure Jeffrey Immelt’s GE owned NBC won’t go there.

I googled this to find info for a post and you popped up – first, as you often do. I’ll steal it if you don’t mind.
LC, I just finished posting on the Chicago Honor Student murdered by a mob of teenagers. By the time I was done, I was done. It is so sad that it was exhausting. The boy really was an honor student. He had a beautiful list of “affirmations” on the wall of his bedroom. He was only 15.
Now this. A show I once loved, even with occasional liberal twinges. And like you, I watch reruns only. I’ll never watch even the reruns again. They get paid from them too.
Sometimes it is hard to think that life isn’t lousy.

Used to love this show, intelligently written, thought provoking, often a surprise, and true to life: sometimes, the bad guys walked. And those actors after years and years felt like family. When they stray from entertaining and start preaching, I’m done. And that’s sad. Thankfully, I taped many early seasons (for my own use, nobody call the Feds!)—-I can still watch the best stuff and not contribute to their profits.

This was the last Law and Order I will ever watch. If fact, I had my wife turn it off in the middle of it and removed it from my TIVO’s season pass. I made a similar protest with “ER” when it started on their left leaning political themes.
While I was aggravated from the beginning of the show, what finally did it for me was the reference to the Marine as a “trained killer”. This is absolutely disgusting and demonstrates the phoniness of liberals when they claim to support the military. Underlying their rhetoric is this loathing for what our brave men and women actually do. My son spent 16 months in almost daily combat in Afghanistan two years ago, and is just finishing a deployment to Iraq. To have him referred to even indirectly as a “trained killer” is a sickening slap in the face for his bravery and service. Shows like Law and Order and networks like NBC that mock our career service people are unworthy of our support.
