I do remember saying that. But it takes guts to act upon; most of these corrupt people are cowards...I don't know if they have it in them, I doubt it. It would take a dramatic turn of events, like an admission of guilt, or a tangible proof that they planted evidence, something like that where few careers would go down the drain forever and reputations damaged so hard that nothing could be repaired. We are pretty sure already but we need more reality in the name of justice, by freeing the innocent first and serve the guilty with their just sentencing.
This is only one small glimpse in a much larger picture in the world.
My interest is much wider than just 'Making a Murderer'; I live with injustice, it's everywhere.
The human race is very weak generally; loyalty to corruption and power and money gains is rampant in every corner of the globe.
If Kathleen Zellner wouldn't have taken Steven Avery's case I don't think there would be much talk and hope.
You are right that if Steven walks free, it's the exit door for Brendan automatically.
• Making a Murderer
• The Staircase
• The Innocent Man
I'd like to see justice done also about a journalist chopped in small pieces and most likely dissolved in acid. Plus, I'd like to see my own country not intervening in the personal affairs of the USA regarding the arrest of a Chinese CEO woman of a cell phone company, in Vancouver, (with 5G technology), with now thirteen Canadians arrested in China for security reasons, plus a more independent America when it comes to oil exportation and deals with the forces of evil.
9/11 is fresh on my mind as yesterday.
So yes I take a huge interest in justice for all. We read books to learn more, good books by good writers, we watch good documentaries to learn more and be aware, we talk about our impressions, we share the music it plays in our hearts and minds, that's what real humans do.
We are like Kathleen and many others; it pains us to see the innocent people suffers and the guilty enjoying their guilt.
America is tough, Canada is tough, Mexico is tough, Russia is tough, China is tough, North Korea is tough, Saudi Arabia is tough, ...many countries are tough on human rights, on corruption, on doing wrong, on hypocrisy, on false power from excesses, from the sales of guns, from oil exploitation, for control of territories. It creates injustice and it helps to spread it everywhere.
Fighting for justice is worth dying for, fighting for, for equality and the right to be happy living.
That's the balance, the purpose of mankind on Earth and beyond.
So yes it starts right @ home in our own backyards, small corners.
If we can find justice right around us it encourages us to do what's right on a larger scale, working together against the wrongs, against the people who violate human rights and the freedom to live peacefully.
I take it @ heart this documentary because it is part of a much larger universal picture.
My faith is what keeps me breathing life.
