>> There are a lot of things that you complain haven't happened and I can understand your impatience but you shouldn't equate not having happened with never going to happen.
In what scenario does FBI have a criminal on video committing a crime, list him as "wanted", and then, inexplicably and mysteriously, decide he isn't wanted anymore? Why is Epps not in jail like the other alleged criminals? What mitigating factor could possibly account for their simply wiping his name -- this, the most important actor (other than Babbitt's killer) in the day's events -- off their list of people to talk with?
Perhaps if I could envision a time in real life that this might happen legitimately, I would understand there is another possibility. If you know of any it would be helpful if you would suggest it.
>> Some of those things that distress you might not have happened YET but that doesn't mean that they won't. Investigations and prosecutions have patterns that occur over a long time. With multiple subjects, they have to sequence things so as not to show their hand or so that they can use cooperating witnesses, for example. You need to come to love and appreciate the word, "yet."
So, you think there could be a circumstance where the guy who started the violent part of the riot might not need to be taken into custody ASAP? That they should lock up minor offenders, vastly overstate their actions, while the ring leader sits on his Arizona farm free as a bird?
Meanwhile, we treat the others like major offenders for merely walking over an invisible line where ther used to be a fence before others tore it down. But unable to present that to the court because of the threat of absurd sentences hanging over their heads.
This isn't justice. And those who support it aren't in favor of justice. |
