“The FBI gang skating on far more serious crimes doesnt lessen this guys actions or justify letting him off.”
It kinda does. A cop taking bribes should lose all ability to prosecute others. The FBI is a corrupt organization through and through. From agents shooting at LaVoy Finicum and covering it up, to being rife with leaks, to widespread participation in the sedition plot...the FBI has lost all moral authority to enforce any laws.
Laws and morals are two different things. I dont want the state enforcing morals. Law enforcement should be a local and state issue. All Federal law enforcement should be eliminated except those that are directly proscribed in the Constitution.
If I were on a jury or grand jury, I'd laugh at any evidence presented by the FBI. At best, it is of no more use than your average hearsay.
