I personally can't see it as anything other than being a lackey for cops.

Unfortunately someone is gonna be a judge so I'd rather the person who is jailing cops instead of the person jailing kids. I do think that voting matters a lot more at the local level too, there's a lot more meaningful impact that can be done for real people on the microscale level. But I do understand folks who just swear off bourgeois democracy altogether. I'm not under any pretense that we're going to solve anything systemic by voting for a judge, but maybe I can help keep some kids outta jail and some cops in jail. It's the little things.

You don't get to be considered to be a judge in the US if you're jailing cops and not kids. This "good judge" persona is liberal nonsense that exists only in your head and the minds of liberals.

This aforementioned person you are talking about. They don't exist and looking for them is a liberal version of tilting at windmills.

They literally do exist and I explained how I know that already. Again real confused about how you got here but okay, go off I guess
