The Three-Headed Monster In The Way Of Holding The Virginia Prison Official Accountable By William Thorpe

Recently The Attorney General of The Commonwealth of Virginia, Jason Miyares, made a brazenly lawless and unconstitutional declaration to the world (and I paraphrase) that the Virginia parole board in early 2020 had been in "a parole-granting frenzy "as such had endangered public safety by releasing dozens of violent felons. The brazen lawlessness and unconstitutional fact of the statement exposes a fact of Virginia's Social Contract which is it's Justice Infrastructure, exist firstly in defense of a type of privilege which in turn requires, necessitates and demands the lawlessness underpinning Attorney General Jason Miyares anti-parole hyperbolic rant. This sabotage of and undermining of Virginia's Social Contract and its conditional and relative Justice Infrastructure, is possible because of the lack of Accountability and the primary beneficiaries of this inherent lawlessness are, the Prison Official. Yes, other elements of the Justice Apparatus and Infrastructure are also beneficiaries, but I want to primarily focus on Virginia's Prison Official. I will focus on three parts of the social contract that are a primary cause permitting, the lack of accountability.

(1) NEGLIGENT VOTING The social contract is the first understanding among any grouping of people and as such is Natural Law. Irrespective of any and all other suppositions, formulations, and narratives. The understanding, establishing community among people is the first law and in Virginia as across the Nation it is achieved through the one and only act of voting. Whether it's in local elections for schools, City and county government, Statewide Government and finally the Presidency and the National Government. What people want, how people expect to be treated and how their fellow others will be treated are all a result of and from that one and singular act of voting. The problem faced by Virginia is how to vote and what to vote for. If for example one is a crime victim and the justice system exacting repair for the harm of the crime is part of and a function of the social contract which you've participated in its construction, regardless of whether or not you agreed with all its parts, It's in your interest, an affirmation of your humanness that the laws that created the experience as a crime are adhered to, meaning someone as the attorney general especially the attorney general who in this case is Jason Miyares should adhere to the law. Parole is part of Virginia's justice system and Infrastructure, it's the law. The attorney general of the Commonwealth of Virginia is a creation of law and exist as law the only reason we listen and pay attention to anything that comes out of the mouth of the attorney general is because of the authority our collective will has given the office by our vote as such when the attorney general forgets that it exist only because of our vote then we have to firstly remind ourselves that we must take the act of voting as serious as the conservation and preservation of our very life and existence because those we vote for can either pervert, corrupt or enable our aspirations, which we clearly see in the corruption of the social contract by Jason Miyares comments as it relates to parole.

(2) SCAPEGOATING A WEAPON EMPLOYED AND USED BY VIRGINIA SUPREMACIST Politicians, legislators, advocacy, activist dissect and debate ideas and policies as function of the social contract. The question however is, due to the negligent manner of the vote in Virginia, debates had by and policies presented by those it votes for become scapegoating mechanisms in pursuit of maintaining and defending the privilege and the inevitable inherent lawlessness of Virginia's justice system and infrastructure at the expense of advancing in a redemptive and constructive manner what it means to be human. Accordingly, we see the full display of Virginia's sub-humanization of parts of its social contract in the practices and administration of its imprisonment scheme, specifically, the barbaric and extra-judicial behavior of its Virginia Department of Corrections Prison Official. Subsequently its basis again is the impractical and negligent manner of the Virginia vote. If we understand that all aspects of Virginia's Government, its function, which include the barbarism of its prison official are specific and direct results of how we vote, then the responsibility shifts from the idealistic ability to criticize "the system" to engaging in the complete and total focus of challenging any and all assertions of those we vote for on the lines of, if for example parole is a function of the criminal justice system, then a sitting attorney general who is legally bound to abide by and comply with law is behaving as an outlaw "official" when he criticizes Virginia's parole board for doing what the law specifies and requires of it. The issue isn't whether Jason Miyares can be as critical as he wants about any aspect of Virginia's social contract including, grant of parole, he can, but either as a politician running for office or as a private citizen. But when he does it as the States 'Chief Law Official then Virginia's social contract ceases from being democratic and instead reveals itself as what we have historically experienced it inherently to be and we have no one to blame but ourselves for submitting to scapegoating as a weapon of privilege and its lawlessness.

(3) COMPLICITY BY VIRGINIA'S CORPORATE MEDIA AND VIRGINIA'S PROFESSIONAL ACTIVIST CLASS Media by definition has a bias, as such Virginia's corporate or mainstream media is status quo biased and slanted. Naturally as it relates to matters of the justice system and infrastructure, Virginia's media has historically parroted The Virginia Department of Corrections spin with that proverbial wink and nod. So, for decades, the recently retired Frank Green staff writer for the Richmond Times-Dispatch on prison related issues simply reviewed Virginia Department of Corrections press releases and comments on issues as coverage thus compounding the ignorance of the Virginia voter. As such, as crucial and integral the issue of crime and justice or as the supremacist among us would characterize it as, "law and order" is to the social contract, the Virginia voter has been manipulated by the media complicity surrounding issues of Prison. Secondly those who earn a living claiming to speak for the Virginia Prisoner are in most cases complicit with the inherent lawlessness of the justice system and infrastructure. So, let's take for example the question of oversight of the Virginia prison official. Forever, prisoners and victims of crime have demanded oversight of The Virginia Department of Corrections and Virginia legislators have played footsie with it. Activist purportedly speaking for the Virginia prisoner have made it a bullet point to which politicians have then used it as their perennial Bill Clinton and Sistah Souljah moment, exploiting it as counter balance to their reactionary views on crime and punishment with tacit activist wink and nod. First of all the professional activist class, in their reform idea, are incapable of challenging the inherent lawlessness of Virginia's justice system and infrastructure, because they accept the "legitimacy" of the social contracts 'narrative as being or existing without a point of view or interest. So, when attorney general Jason Miyares states that the super-max prisons of Red Onion and Wallens Ridge are a source of employment for the predominately-white rural people of Southwest Virginia, he is revealing a fact the prison reform imperative pursued by Virginia's professional activist class overlooks as not being a primary motive of the Commonwealth's interest under the narrative of criminal justice. If the organic basis of the justice system and infrastructure is clearly understood as a mechanism of social-control, notwithstanding its selling points, which the abolishment of parole by the former Governor George Allen and his Republican foot soldiers is a case in point. Then its critique must orient from political-economy realities of the Commonwealth and the professional activist class as I've already pointed out is seriously incapable of leading such a debate, despite its necessity. For example if a sizable amount of Virginia's prisoner population are imprisoned due to economic "crimes", then a honest and civilized social contract would interrogate and analyze why. But the reality is Virginia's justice system and infrastructure along with the rest of the Nation's isn't concerned with serving as a means of providing repair to crime victims, but as a back door to perpetuating and maintaining the Nations original economic force, that of "labor" from the chattel enslavement of black people. We see this in the fact of the 13th amendment to the constitution of the United States. This work has tackled and identified, three factors that have forever sabotaged the real push and work of holding Virginia's Social Contract to its obligations and its Department of Corrections Prison Official accountable. The resolution to the simple and basic question of injustice lies with us, to what extent are we "woke".
