Equal?!

I'm sure most of you are wondering what my stand is on the question/issue of which I previous spoke. I personally believe that the criminal justice system is equal. There are obviously flaws in criminal justice, but they are not the fault of the system itself. All that makes up the criminal justice system itself if fair and equal. Any inequality that can be seen is not due to the structure itself, but another underlying, irreparable cause. Anyone who is ignorant enough to see the criminal justice system as unfair is only uninformed or misinformed on what the criminal justice system actually is and how it functions.
The dictionary definition of the criminal justice system is "a series of organizations involved in apprehending, prosecuting, defending, sentencing, and jailing those involved in crimes - including law enforcement, attorneys, judges, courts of law, prisons." The constitution as well as the federal, state, and local governments have set up laws that ensure that every person, black or white, male or female, rich or poor is not discriminated against in the system. Every person, no matter their social status must go through the same procedures once arrested and charged with a crime. The system has no specific rules that say "if you are rich, you will be given a lighter sentence." Anyone who thinks otherwise is extremely confused on what the criminal justice system is. Yes, there are inequalities in America, but they are not to be blamed on the criminal justice system itself. Using the system as a scapegoat for punishments handed out to people is nothing short of absurd. I am embarrassed that Americans would be so ignorant to say such things.
