America has both too much and too little jail. They put randoms in jail for trivial shit to force obedience from the population, but politicians rape children on video and go free. Even better, the videos get destroyed.
> Americans always frothing at the mouth to invoke the justice system and jail someone
Your phrasing makes it seem like that's a bad thing. Americans are bombarded by a firehose of headlines about Big XYZ doing all kinds of blatantly illegal or harmful things, but never get any sort of meaningful resolution before the next terrible thing takes it's place in the news cycle. I'll admit, there are a few people that I am personally wishing a modicum of health so that they live long enough to get some sort of public shame and justice - if only to show the rest of us that it's not a completely rigged system.
There’s almost 0 chance they’d secure any conviction from this.
