selective enforcement of the law is a real issue. One of the reasons Donald Trump will likely never go to jail is the failure to prosecute nixon, reagan (iran contra, iran hostage crisis meddling), and Bush/Cheney(wmd fiasco)
And one of the reasons POC are more likely go to jail (or even gets shot) for something a white man would be let free with only a warning…
At least in the “free” land.
I hate Reagan with all my heart, but in his defence there is little to no evidence Reagan knew what his subordinates were doing with Iran Contra. Those subordinates did face judgement and were not pardoned until late 2007.
But you can’t charge me with murder! That guy committed it too!

Bush’s fault, got it.
The argument here is more along the lines of, “you can’t make a law that defines something as murder only when I do it.”
Good thing that’s not what’s happening, then.
No that’s exactly what’s happened.
Lol
