Courts of Law Not Courts of Justice

Eric Oberer

What if I told you that the American criminal justice system has never been about, is not set up to seek out, and is not equipped to find, justice –- at least “justice” as understood by most? In many ways, it was designed this way by the Founding Fathers based on Benjamin Franklin’s vision that “it is better a hundred guilty persons should escape than one innocent person should suffer.” 
Americans are taught that justice means fairness. They expect it from our legal system. “Equal Justice Under Law” is prominently inscribed on the Supreme Court. Yet law and justice in America are not necessarily the same thing. And they are certainly not applied in equal ways. 
The disconnect between these realities and what Americans are taught about justice has led to great strife in our society. But what if everyone grew up understanding the limitations of our justice system, yet understood what it is striving to achieve? Through the Revolutionary War, historic cases, civil unrest, Broken Windows law enforcement, corrupt police and attorneys, and jury bias, the lens through which you see the American justice system is about to change, all as told by former Baltimore prosecutor –- Eric Oberer. It is time for a paradigm shift…

Survival - Essential Skills for...

Coral Nunez

Survival is not just about enduring extreme situations—it’s about adapting, thinking critically, and using the resources around you to stay alive. Whether you find yourself lost in the wilderness, stranded after a disaster, or facing unexpected dangers, survival is a combination of mental resilience, resourcefulness, and essential skills. 
One of the most crucial aspects of survival is understanding the psychology behind it. Fear, panic, and despair can be just as deadly as any external threat. The ability to stay calm, assess the situation, and make rational decisions greatly increases your chances of survival. Training your mind to respond with logic rather than emotion can help you overcome the initial shock of an emergency and focus on solutions. 
In any survival situation, knowing how to prioritize your needs is essential. The Rule of Threes is a widely accepted principle that highlights the urgency of different survival necessities. A person can survive three minutes without air, three hours without shelter in extreme weather, three days without water, and three weeks without food. This guideline emphasizes that while food is important, finding water and creating shelter should take precedence in most situations.
