    If, despite all the efforts of the DNC and the GOP, a good law (like a bill meant to protect vulnerable individuals) somehow manages to make it onto the books, it immediately gets effectively repealed through interpretation by the judiciary until it becomes a waste of ink on the code books.

    Add that the average jury is composed almost entirely of reactionary treatlerites who are easily swayed by the theatrics of highly-paid lawyers and this is what you get.

    This is how you get billionaire celebrities getting a verbal warning for their 27th DUI.
