ON KERRY DOUGHERTY, A BELLOWS LABORING IN STOKING FEAR OF VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS BY EXPLOITING THE MURDER OF LEXIE WALTERS By William Thorpe

If Kerry Dougherty is concerned with "violent geezers" committing crimes and being in positions to commit crimes, then she need not look any further than the "Oval Office", where one geezer in particular holds Court and not only is he a convicted felon but is in position to commit historic and cataclysmic crimes--which by the way he already has. My intent isn't to engage Kerry Dougherty on the hypocrisy of her point of view but to confront its intellectual liberalism. I BEGIN: Thousands of Virginians die in all sorts of ways each year and I'm sure Kerry Dougherty isn't simply concerned with a type of death, or to add insult to injury suggesting that one humans death is of more significance than another--because that would fly in the face of why we even have Society. Yet that's exactly what Ms. Dougherty's efforts with her recent work "JUST WHAT VIRGINIA DOESN'T NEED.VIOLENT PREDATORS-MURDERERES AND RAPISTS VOMITED BACK INTO SOCIETY FROM PRISON JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE OLD "indicates and pursues.

Deploying the frat house imagery of Prisoners, "vomited back into Society" as Kerry Dougherty does, is a loser and it smells of desperation and the nihilism of her argument. She has nothing to offer save fear of Democrats and the endorsement of the dictatorship of breaking the law. Parole and its process for a type of Virginia prisoner is the law. Invoking the murder and death of Lexie Walters, is that classic strawman maneuver that has nothing to do with the institution of "justice for all". First of all, the spirit and if it is to be found principle of Ms. Dougherty position is, what is undermining Virginia's Social Contract. For starters, the only reason the murder and killing of Lexie Walters is a crime, is because of "law", the same law which parole in Virginia and its process is birthed of. What Kerry Dougherty asserts is a violation of law, in two respects.[1] Ex Post Facto and [2] Bill of Attainder. Ex Post Facto, violation is when newly enacted law is applied retroactively, which is what eligible Virginia prisoners for parole are currently experiencing and Bill of Attainder violation is the spirit of Ms. Dougherty argument. Yes the disgraced and racist ex-governor George Allen abolished parole under the guise of "Public Safety", which we knew was only a political stunt to secure the electoral supremacy of Republicans and is borne out because here we are 30 years later with Republicans singing the same ole crime song. The fact is Virginia Republicans could care less about crime or they wouldn't foster it, nurture it and inculcate is as the standard of business. Breaking the Law under the double speak of " law and order" only speaks to what is thought of the citizenry--the disdain and contempt had for the People of Virginia and we see all of its shades and nuances in Ms. Dougherty's work. There are tens of thousands of Virginians like Lexi Walters who thankfully are not murdered singularly, but and this is what elevates their predicament over singularities, they are being killed enmasse by policies of Government as in this case the Commonwealth of Virginia. Ms. Dougherty invokes the name of Lexi Walters whose experience as I've indicated earlier is due to the existence and enforcement of "law", because if it was just on the fact that fellow human kills another human, which is homicide, then there are numerous instances where the State of Virginia due to acts of its agents and officials commit homicide, a quick example is the recent killing of Aubrey McKay, a Virginia prisoner who died under the custody of the Virginia prison official at Koncentration Kamp Wallens Ridge State Prison. Virginians are killed enmasse by their sworn Government agents, yet there isn't polemic against the Commonwealth. We only see arguments as Ms. Dougherty's when the objective is in the employ of electoral machinations and I have to ask this, why are Virginia Republicans so hell bent on ruling, they never improve the terms of Virginia's Social Contract?When Ms. Dougherty argues for the violation of Virginia law, as she does in her anti-parole spiel, she ignores that she is promoting the same criminality she claims to detest, under the supposition that she is doing a common good without any hint of the realization that what she has done is a perversion of unimaginable proportions by reducing the killing of a human to the inanity of a crass talking point. A talking point that not only is intellectually liberal and disingenuous but is patently false. But after all is said and done, it sacrifices and betrays the very essence and function of law which as John Adams, besides his human flaws had the intellectual honesty, practicality and fortitude to instruct that we are a Nation of Laws and not Men. It is clearly evident Ms. Dougherty has no understanding of or according to the Machiavellian maxim, (and I paraphrase) the end justifying the means, willing to compromise the faith and trust, law provides the Citizenry and Polity by mocking it in her work, by deploying fear of Virginia Democrats against The People of Virginia. The sentiment imbued in Kerry Dougherty's work is that pathetic miasma our enlightened past and present labor against. It's simple, our dishonest and insidious proclaim so and so is "good" or "evil", while the practical and honest observes, 'apply law and its process'. If Ms. Dougherty with her anti-parole and extra-judicial advocacy assumes omniscience implying, all knowing, then she should understand the social and political need of parole, because there isn't finality in anything of our Human Condition and its Social Contract expression which is relatively and consequently humble enough and cognizant of the fact that our " judgement ", is simply that a process--which in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Law and its Process acknowledges and recognizes such with [1] The Appellate Process and all its vehicles.[2] The Pardon, Clemency and Commutation Process and [3] The Parole and Probation Process. Even in death we find law and its process operating posthumously with Exonerations and Pardons. But Kerry Dougherty and her thought care less about the construction and reform of Social Contract and its terms, instead she behaves as if the exploitation of crime, deviance or some sort of predicate as political tactic is original and novel.

Now,despite the short term gain it provides those exploiters or adherents to the Kerry "Thought" of the exploitation of fear of [fill in the blank], which in this instance is, Virginia Democrats, its long term impact on Society, due to its undermining medium on The Peoples faith and trust in the "terms" of Social Contract is abjectly and egregiously devastating. Which again its exploiters or adherents to the Kerry "thought" and its underlying and formulating aversion and antipathy to the democratization of due process of law, which that Madisonian thesis of a "more perfect union" anticipates are antithetical to and wouldn't give a flip to. As such which is why and where we encounter the Kerry Dougherty's of our polity embarking on undermining the rule of law and its due process with frat house and sophomoric imagery of prisoners "vomited back into society" if it isn't an insidious calculus, a scare tactic designed to politically exploit the devastating experienced harm of a victim of crime at their moment of helplessness.
