Publishing classified information to the public is punishable under the espionage laws. However, we have a government where laws regarding classified information are enforced selectively. If it were otherwise, then Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and others would be serving jail sentences and paying large fines. The list of perpetrators would be very long if we enforced treason laws.

Why is this????

And can we initiate civil laws in anyway?

The Minutemen are working. Maybe some civil action would too.

I know, in my state, I can go to the town hall and issue another driver a ticket.

What kind of options are available to enforce a law with that type of thought in mind?
