The issues with the justice system are well documented. Please do not try to straw man what I am getting at. Certain people are arrested and detained far often than others, because of who they are and not what they did. Many positions in the justice system prioritize conviction rate above all else. There are many problematic relationships between legislators, law enforcement and the for-profit prison systems. Our position in this list should make anyone afraid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarceration_rate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarcera... If LE decides you should be "taken off the streets", regardless of if you did the crime you are accused of, you are likely going to prison for something unless you are wealthy. If you are wealthy, they may not bother. All very interesting.

You might want to try reading something other than leftist attacks on law enforcement. Yes there abuses here and there. But for the most part law enforcement works s in the constitutional rights of defendants are respected. And if they are not they are subject to appeal. The system is flawed but it works.

  It may surprise you to learn that I lurk the comments section at Breitbart. The subtext of the articles is made clear there. There is plenty of distrust in LE and the legal system on the right. There is also plenty of people who believe it all is OK because "those people" are ending up in prison. You will never reach the people who do not care until it happens to someone they know, or someone like them.

  Maybe try reading more leftist attacks on law enforcement? Like, yes, the system works at the level you're assessing it. The problem is that it's based on a mountain of flawed premises and so we've ultimately created a literal torment nexus with a smiley face taped on top of it and everyone gets to wash their hands of it and go home: justice served.

  So if someone critiques LE they’re leftist? That’s pretty lazy and definitely indicative of someone in a silo.
