If tonight the Tg1 (italian state-owned main evening tv news program) opened its evening edition with the save the premier law, calling it so. If it said that the law to shorten the statute of limitation for all but the most serious crimes and those of immigrants is unconstitutional, racist and in fact an amnesty for bribers, polluters, crooks and many others such criminals?

The others are less equal than those who can bend law and justice to their will, and act above it.The law is equal for everyone, but not its application. With this sad summary of... more
