Habeas corpus

A community portal about Habeas corpus with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: In common law countries, habeas corpus, Latin for "you have the body", is the name of a legal action or writ by means of which detainees can seek relief from unlawful imprisonment. But habeas corpus has a much broader meaning in common law today. A writ of habeas corpus is a court order addressed to a prison official ordering that a prisoner be brought before the court for determination of whether that person is serving a lawful sentence and/or whether he or she should be released from custody. The writ of habeas corpus in common law countries is an important instrument for the safeguarding of individual freedom against arbitrary state action.

WE LOSE WHEN OTHERS SUFFER

Written by ilovemylife on

From: ilovemylifebrothersandsisters.blogspot.com

You change when you respect your pain

When justice isn't our compass
we get a world with man-made pain.
When justice isn't protected
we get a world confused and deluded.
When justice isn't the most important value,
we get politicians with license to violate our basic human rights.

Habeas Corpus is non-negotiable.
We get the politicians we order.

I think it will be the "developing" world
who teaches the "developed" world
priorities
and the way toward the justice
we only afford ourselves in our dreaming.

Lyrics...
There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she's dying
She's dying to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes

Hurts like brand-new shoes

There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives in a world she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes
Hurts like brand-new shoes
