I usually prefer to just comment on a post or add a link to it, if my good friend Yid with Lid posted it before me. That was going to be the case here, however, after looking through the comments to the post on Free Republic I feel compelled to write about it here, as my comment would be rather lengthy.

As Yid with Lid says:

…a Federal Judge Jon Stuart Scoles made a ruling at the end of November that essentially said Jews cannot get bail. Sholom Rubashkin former CEO of Agriprocessor’s the nation’s largest producer of Kosher Meat was denied bail essentially because he was Jewish:

“Under Israel’s Law of Return, any Jew and members of his family who have expressed their desire to settle in Israel will be granted citizenship,” the judge wrote.

To quote such a law existing in a foreign country which, as Yid aptly notes, American Jews had nothing to do with seems to point out certain prejudices that might cloud an otherwise scholarly judicial mind. Is it a case of prejudice? Let’s see… There has never been a case where any judge denied bail because of either dual citizenship or ethnicity. The fact remains that anyone who has ever immigrated to this country from… say. India, a Latin American country, a European country, or from whatever country in whatever continent, is just as much a flight risk. To blanket accuse any Jew in America as a possible flight risk certainly does not seem a fair and equal application of America’s laws.

I am no jurist and, I’ll admit, I may be reading too much into Judge Scoles’ specific ruling. However, gentle reader, the language used by the honorable judge has certainly made me raise my eyebrows. Does His Honor really mean imply that, as a Jew, Mr. Rubashkin is a bigger flight risk than if he were not a Jew?!?!? I wonder if this very Honorable judge would have thought, for example, of making a ruling denying bail to some Imam whose pronouncements were too incendiary for inciting to shed Jooz infidels’ blood? Don’t you think that CAIR, ISNA, ICNA and others would rightfully and indignantly picket the honorable judge’s home and courtroom. Perhaps in some Muslim capital His Honor would be burned in effigy while our embassy would be attacked by some unruly mob defending the honor of the Prophet (PBUH!). Hmmmmmnnn….

I never heard of Judge Scoles before, therefore, since I believe in the sacrosanct principle of American justice that one is presumed innocent until proven guilty I will give him the benefit of doubt and think of his ugly words as merely an unfortunate, unthinking turn of phrase. I can’t, however, be so charitable to some commenters on Free Republic. One commenter specificallywho starts out almost reasonably enough by saying in comment #6:

The idiots couldn’t seem to stop breaking the law so they were seen as a flight risk with a place to go.

Why, I wonder, does an observant Jew have any more of a place to go than a non-Jew who immigrated from any other country, or who has the money to pay for a fast out-of -the-country getaway? I must ask him how he arrived at such a conclusion… Oh, wait, soon he/she shows us his/her true colors by adding, in comment #19:

Personally I’d be happy if they just left the country since that would be the cheapest route but most see that as a crime unpunished.

I wonder if, by having expressed such beautiful sentiments, he would love to also get rid of every single Jew in this country and… maybe… just maybe… the world? Again, since I know nothing about said individual I can not claim that he may be a card carrying, paid up member of the KKK, or the Aryan Nation, or any other such Joo-loving organization. In fact, I have no way of knowing and it would be unfair of me to even imply that he may be a Joo hating IslamoFascist but… I wonder… I wonder…

In Frank Sinatra’s The Detective, Frank’s character – a tough interrogator and one who can’t always be bothered by the customary niceties when interrogating a suspect – walks in on a new detective as the latter is interrogating a naked suspect. Appalled, he asks the younger man why? He receives an answer that it always worked for the Nazis. Yeap, it worked for the Nazis. Sure did… Pity!

I think too many judges have outgrown their pantaloons and think they can get away with any ruling that makes them happy. I also think too many of them, like our legislators, hang together to prevent being hanged individually. Unless the charge is unmitigated murder, I think he should have been granted bail. I believe in the case of murder NO ONE should receive bail. I’m not a jurist or a lawyer so what do I know?

I seem to recall that racial or ethnic profiling is illegal. Where is the ADL when you need them? Maybe they should take lessons from CAIR or the NAACP!
