Only $8 million instead of $1.5 billion?!? What? Where is the justice?
For the not clicking on links inclined, here’s the recap. Alex was hit with a whopping $1.5 billion dollar judgment. He played the delaying game as long as possible. The court initially was looking at letting him keep in business to earn more to pay out more OR selling off his actual real property and try to stop him from being the parasite he is. In that case, the payout is quoted as less than $8 million instead of $1.5 billion. That’s about half a percent of the initial judgment.
And now for the odd post title.
Facebook’s algorithm decided I needed a video about the movie Blue Ruin. It does look interesting enough for a look and it’s my analogy for the Jones judgment story. In BR, the hero is an ordinary guy. And as fate would have it he’s put in a situation where he is supposed to go John Wick on bad guys and kill them. But, he’s an ordinary guy. He doesn’t know how to shoot straight, stitch up his own wounds with a sewing needle and thread, survive nearby explosions, ricochet a bullet off the pavement to nail the baddie hiding behind the car, or anything remotely highly trained movie assassin bolstered with plot armor.
Sadly, the idea that $1.5 billion would ever see a switch of hands and bank accounts was pretty ridiculous. That’s the kind of thing that only happens in a movie. It’s extremely unlikely that Free Speech Systems would ever generate enough to pay off anything close to $1.5 billion. More likely, in real world law instead of movie law it’s a message for future Alex’s that there’s a precedent for totally bankrupting future similar shenanigans. Or even current shenanigans instead of future. And add to the real world mix, in the current atmosphere of people questioning the partisan ethics accusations levied at the Supreme Court we’re also looking at maybe $0 or a Trump term including a full pardon also leading to a $0.
There are movies that touch on real world law, like A Civil Action (Travolta, Shaloub, Macy, Gandolfini, Duvall) that’s based on a real non-fiction book where things don’t turn out well for the lawyers. It’s still entertaining, but arguably not as much as the unrealistic drama of A Few Good Men or Rob tickling of My Cousin Vinny.
The courts do not need to settle for an ordinary Blue Ruin legal resolution. We already know that gematria is undeniable (as they often remind us) and that nothing is a coincidence (as they often remind us) and it’s the bestest proof out there. Once it gets to the point of an appeal there is a simple fact that needs to be emphasized that oversees the rule of law. In addition to being a football fan, one of the top deities has ordained that Infowars is evil:
Case closed. Suck it Travolta. I’m a better movie lawyer than you.
