 Crime does not add to karma, it compounds instead. Few days ago, a man in Las Vegas was sentenced on a charge of “attempted battery with substantial bodily harm”. The judge denied him probation saying, “I think it’s time he got a taste of something else.” She probably felt regret 10 seconds later. The man jumped over the bench, arms and legs wide, landing on top of the judge, dropping her ass from the chair into the ground. WWE style.

See how karma compounds? The judge fucked around and found out. Insult a criminal too insecure to feel shame. If you’re lucky, you’ll catch their hands, otherwise they’ll catch you. This man not only committed another crime, but he compounded his punishment by attacking his judge. Ironic how karma works.
