I am not a felon.

I received the circle "F" from the Connecticut State Police and kangaroo courts.

Imagine going to prison for speaking out about police refusing to protect and serve you in downtown Connecticut, you then get attacked on your own property by a felon, and only you get arrested, are offered no deals, just plead guilty and go to prison.

I endured a fixed trial at your tax dollar expense, was sentenced to a year in prison for pepper spraying my attacker, and you paid to warehouse me.

I had a business, $500,000 in CT real estate and paid taxes. If you don't work, you don't pay taxes.

So your taxes were used to encourage criminals to commit crimes and take a taxpayer offline.

Funny joke, right?

Well Steven, I guess I won't ask you how your day is going.... you've either missed the message in this comic, or your once again using this blog site as your platform to voice your personal vendetta against the CT court system or local government.

As I am genuinely sorry for your wrongful imprisonment, However this comic really has little or nothing to do with what you just said. The message in this comic is a simple one - It's sort of like M.C. Escher's concept of "The Möbius strip". A never ending cycle, going around in circles and never getting anywhere.

Get a life Mr. Erickson. Every topic in state government does not revolve around you and you can't keep posting your rantings on this web site if you can't stay on topic.

Christine,
I'm sorry. You offer an extremely attractive forum here. I know that legislators and many of the Connecticut movers and shakers view your site.

The sad fact is, that most of Connecticut citizens that are processed in Connecticut courts aren't treated with respect or fairness.

Legislators for the most part aren't serving their constituents. They don't meet with them, call or write back. There are exceptions and these heroes go unsung.

I had a relationship with my daughter 7 years ago before I was mugged on my property. It was in retaliation for proposing laws to legislators that I was railroaded to prison. I suffer everyday, and do vent, my purpose in life, and everything I have ever worked for, gone. Nothing can fix the damage, but I can inform others.

It could be worse, there are young adults just barely out of childhood dying and suffering horrifically over in Iraq, unnecessarily. The uninformed can raise families, live, buy a home, and work in Connecticut, I wish to give them a little warning about the rampant corruption that can impact every aspect of their lives and families.

Ritt Goldstein fled Connecticut after proposing Civilian Oversight of Police to Sweden. He was so terrorized by Connecticut police, as far as I know has not been heard from since producing this video of his testimony in Hartford:

Christine and others, guess what? A Fed that has been wronged, members of the judicial branch that are fed up, and police that are sick of the sleaze are finding me and talking to me. Most ask that they remain anonymous.

I will get full and total revenge, legally.

Are you happy?

I love love this comic!!!! Great Job Jeff I almost fell over laughing.

Steven have you lost the meaning of "comic" strip???

It is a light hearted distraction from the reality. I moment to laugh at a sad things are.

So lighten up and smile. If an injustice has been done to you stop crying and use that to make the next guys life better.

"So lighten up and smile"...Yes, words to live by. Thank you, Cedar Hill Res. for the kind words of my comic. It made my day, just knowing my comic brought laughter into at least one persons life.

The comic is funny.

It depicts the truth.

In the simplest terms, it says the system is not run properly.
