Selectively enforcing laws is unjust and discriminatory. It's why it took so long to get gay marriage on the books. Pigs and prosecutors would only target poorer people and those who couldn't defend themselves and cherry pick cases unlikely to win on appeal.

This is being used so Alabama shitheels like Steve Marshall can persecute through prosecution all the people he doesn't like while letting his buddies off. All laws should apply to all people equally.

I wish I could buy Fediverse Plutonium for this comment.

Thanks :)

I liked the old reddit silver where it was that simply drawn medal.

Also, if he doesn't prosecute anyone for it, then it nobody has standing to challenge it.

given the number and breath of laws, only selective enforcement is possible.

we should instead abolish all laws.
