Selective prosecution is always so. They do not catch everyone. Real life? Caught once, it is on your record making you a suspect in other crimes. REALITY - LIFE IS NOT FAIR.
Agree. Life certainly is not fair. I think of someone like Roger Stone who was found guilty of felony charges of obstruction, making false statements and witness tampering, and he was sentenced to 40 months in prison. And then he was pardoned - completely got away with it. Quite the double standard. The law may do and exceptional job, but the powers that be can easily override the law to suit their whims.
