Disasters Continue

The devastation left in the wake of hurricane Katrina is heartbreaking. Disasters one after the other all this year. It is like a gathering storm which will only get worse. The world is changing and nature is hitting back. When nature decides to stir there is nothing that man can do to stop her. Time and time again this has been shown and we are just helpless pawns. All we can do it pray and hope.
The situation in Iraq seems to only lurch from bad to worse. I think that this time the insurgents are on the brink of bringing about the civil war they so long for. The Allied forces will be caught right in the middle and we can expect voices yelling out for all the soldiers to return to their respective countries. This is the beginning of something even bigger and much more dangerous.
The era of Revelations.

Meanwhile whilst all this happens life continues on its way. More court appearances. Tom sacked his solicitor and has just discovered that his solicitor Doug Thompson did not follow instructions and had put Tom as pleading guilty to much more that just kicking Meek up the rear-end. Now the problem is how to change the guilty plea. Tom is having to defend his own case. All to do with legal aid procedures.
But one thing about the law in Scotland, so it seems, there is no such thing as real justice. A comment from a solicitor who was giving us a bit of advise is not to irritate/annoy the Sheriff, or he will go harder on sentencing. Talk about justice! But is is worse than that it is so easy for an enemy to set you up. All a person needs is a witness to support their story. A good friend who is willing to lie. An innocent person has very little chance or none.
I am fed-up to hell of everything. I pray for a little justice.
