You're probably right, you shouldn't, but unless you offer up a better suggestion for a law system, it is it what it is.

How about the one the rest of the civilized world uses? Which is: not mixing politics and prosecution.

Check out the British version of government prosecutions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_Prosecution_Service

Where "controversial" is "oooh, should we change the name?!?".

The american system is one of the worst in western society, granted, but the British one is not that much better at all. Some claim is worst. I never had the misfortune of having to try that on my skin but heard from friends and family.

How's the system in Iceland ? Or Norway ?
