      100% true.

      We also like to parrot shit like “no one is above the law” while requiring perfect situations before ever questioning elected leaders like the president when they blatantly break the law. The US has inverse responsibility, where we blame the poor for being poor and give the wealthy every possible chance to buy their way out of crimes.

        Except the president and police are literally above the law with the presidential pardon and qualified immunity.

          Qualified immunity isn’t abused nearly as often as people think it is.

          Civil asset forfeiture is the one they really abuse
