My first article published on this site had to do with a Federal Court decision that exempted Ruby Ridge shooter Lon Hourichi from Idaho law. This is not an issue that is limited to the impeachment case. Personally, I believe that we live in an over regulated society. I believe that the number of laws which lay claim to our lives is absurd. Most people are unaware of the laws that brush against them.
Selective prosecution is the rule.
Most violations are never noted, and most of those that are are ignored. Our only hope to regain freedom and to rein in absurd law is equal enforcement and prosecution. Prohibition was repealed in part because juries began to refuse to convict. The outcome is absurd. If juries knew, understood and exercised the power they hold on a consistent basis, this would fulfill the criteria of equal justice I seek, unless of course the juries are stacked at the beginning.
