Why is an elected official special with respected to sentencing. All men are created equally and when necessary prosecuted and sentenced equally.
Just my two cents...
For better or worse, the argument is that an assault on an elected official is also an assault on the people who elected him and the office he holds.
Rand did get “special treatment”. The liberal “Judge” let the criminal off too easy. If he’d tackled say, Chuck Schumer, the “Judge” would have given him the max.
All men are equal, no doubt.
You didn’t address the attack on the POSITION.
To go to the extreme, what about an attack on PRESIDENT Trump, should that be treated the same as an attack on an ordinary guy walking down the street?
