Kavanaugh is innocent. Yes, I said it.

But why?

Well, there are a few important things the general public and particularly the media have forgotten in regards to the way this country functions.

Most importantly, it's the right to be presumed innocent until proven otherwise. During the heat of the hearings, if one simply turned on the mainstream news, it was clear that this fundamental concept had fleeted from our country's thoughts. We saw on the right, before any investigation or report was finalized, that they "knew" Kavanaugh was innocent. On the left, he was deemed a despicable human being who should be thrown in jail without due process.

This sense of neutrality in determining one's conviction is an essential function in the United States criminal justice system. Without it, you might as well call us the United Kingdoms. This is nothing that has not been seen in the past three decades. However, these hearings brought to light a very ugly truth; our country is in an enormous amount of judicial and moral debt.

The United States is a country that relies heavily on its legislation. As a result, the slow deterioration of it will, in turn, contribute to the slow deterioration of the country not only as a land but as having a world-renowned reputation and as a people. As such, it is the responsibility of every last person who enjoys the freedoms of this country to educate themselves of its functions.

Without it, we stand no chance.

During the length of the Kavanaugh hearings, social media was infected by people on both sides of the political spectrum speaking their piece. However, it is important more so for the individuals of society to be informed of these fundemental judicial processes rather than the media. What ultimately counts in this country are votes, and misinformed voters are deadly.

What these individuals forget is that, in cases such as the Kavanaugh hearings, it is up to the investigative powers of our government to determine the conviction of an individual, not the likes of hearsay.

There is some type of cosmic irony in the fact that the individuals who seek to abolish the criminal justice process in order to achieve social "justice" voice their opinions only because they have the right to do so granted under the infrastructure of the same system they seek to abolish.

It is even more ironic and slightly comical that these same individuals who enjoy these freedoms were unsatisfied with its outcome; Brett Kavanaugh was proven innocent.

Imagine a dog chasing its own tail. Eventually, the dog will bite it off and have no tail to chase, or the right to chase it. However, I digress.

Although frustrating, it is exactly because of our good ole Constitution that these people can seek to abolish our freedoms and have the right to be misinformed. Quite the predicament, huh?

Kavanaugh's hearings and investigation should have been kept private. Another unpopular opinion, I know. Although this would have destroyed the Democrats' whole goal, keeping the hearings private would have saved not only Brett Kavanaugh's reputation, but also that of his family's.

More importantly, the classification of the hearings would have prevented extreme bias both within the public and the judicial body. This is not to say if he was found guilty, it should not have been released on public record. However, given the lack of understanding the general public and apparently our governmental body has for fundamental concepts of justice, it could have saved a lot of people's time and bias towards an individual who ultimately is serving on the Supreme Court regardless.

This tragedy speaks not only to our lack of understanding for our laws but also for the neutrality the Supreme Court is supposed to hold. The justices of the Supreme Court of the United States are seen in the eyes of the public as political figures. It is hard not to since they are essentially categorized as being either conservative or democratic.

There is an additional irony in the fact that within the nine justices on the Court, there is only one "swing" vote, when in theory, all of the justices are supposed to remain neutral parties to any case heard.

Brett Kavanaugh has delivered over three hundred legal opinions at the age of 53. In addition, he was a private attorney and a circuit court judge for years. If you want an idea of who this guy is, to this day, he carries around a pocket Constitution he got in undergrad.

My point is, there is no question Brett Kavanaugh is eminently qualified for the job he was nominated and ultimately hired to do. However, his hearings were the final straw that destroyed the neutrality of not only the Supreme Court but of any compliant satisfaction the public would have had with his future decisions.

Our Supreme Court is the "highest court of the land" for a reason. It hears the cases that neither civil, criminal nor federal court could solve. Given this, I truly do not understand why or how it has become so politicized. The cases brought before it are of the utmost importance to the lives of every single individual inhabiting this free nation.

It not only sickens but saddens me that people outside of the government seek to tear it down through false accusations simply because they do not agree with the political leanings of a particular candidate. It is further disappointing that the people within the government care too little to stop these outsiders or vet them through a process that is just for the reputation of the courts and the opinions of our citizens.

On a side note, where is Dr. Ford now? I'll tell you. No longer suing Brett Kavanaugh. Seems like a character assassination to me, but who am I to say?
