R.A. Kukkee,   Owner and Creator of INCOMINGBYTES.COM        J is for Justice. The old kind. Genuine justice that could instil fear in the devious and  those with evil  social or criminal intent. Is justice dead? In the old west, justice was quickly meted to the rapist,  evil  murderer and horse thief alike by quick trial, a rope,  a free pine box and a dusty  ride to Boot hill. The arrogant,  disrespectful and cruel  often met their maker at high noon with the expedient Colt 45. No longer. Justice is fading into the sunset. Weak, toothless legislation,  slick devious lawyers without morals and pious judges without spines allow even the worst social pariahs  lenient, short sentences, a slap on the wrist, or suspended sentences and  immediate freedom. Victims suffer losses and even die without seeing justice done.

Where is Justice?

The concept of justice has been twisted, softened and degraded by liberalism, feel-good social policy and so-called 'rights' freely attached to criminals,  whether for brutal rape, misdemeanors, horrific and savage murders and beheadings. Children are kidnapped, raped and murdered. Perpetrators go free with the smallest technicalities or plea bargaining of insanity in spite of horrific evidence of their guilt. There is anger afoot, with little wonder.   Yet another innocent,  helpless young rape victim, a fifteen-year-old Nova Scotia girl,  bullied for months, finally committed suicide  after being bullied mercilessly--and the rapist-perpetrators have  not even been charged with mischief even though distribution of their prized, sick internet  photograph of the 15 year-old victim --spread freely without fear of reprimand on the internet--is considered legally to be child pornography. Clearly, there is a problem.  Enough is enough.  If that wasn't bad enough, politicians are congratulating themselves on  International cooperation to take action globally against  wartime rape.  Why is  rape of innocent young victims  tolerated in North America in peace time ?  Does anyone see a problem with that hypocrisy? When is vigilante action demanded? The legal system is  inadequate and inexcusable.   Laws and enforcement must be changed -and that, for the record,  is why J is for Justice.   Is that Incoming I hear?

A-Z Challenge: I is for Integrity

'I' is for Integrity, one human characteristic that is universally and silently respected.  It can be quietly, and kindly maintained in the soul without fanfare,  or equally, may be boldly displayed on your sleeve for all to see. Integrity is a universal value.

An incredibly valuable personal virtue, as precious to a young man or woman as an unblemished name, integrity in practice can graciously evolve into stellar credibility and an excellent reputation.

The Importance of Integrity

Why is integrity so important?  It allows people to believe in you. Trust is established in your methods, your opinion on critical matters, and judgement.  A better understanding of what your chosen path will likely be in any given set of difficult   circumstances is offered directly to anyone that believes in your character.  Integrity is a highly prized personal asset when used in ethical management, business practices, and dealing with friends and family on a personal basis.

What do you think, loyal reader? Do you practice the art of personal integrity?  If not, what are you waiting for?  Time waits for no one.

A hard lesson if ignored, even the dedication and demonstrable  will to establish integrity is a personal characteristic highly prized by those surrounding you –a worthy goal to be attained with diligence and purpose. In social environments increasingly questionable and unstable, the search for integrity is a worthy goal.

That’s why 'I' is for integrity.
