        Go commit any crime on camera and see if it takes them 4 years to charge you with it.

            Nor do you have dozens, to potentially thousands of people all willing to throw themselves into a hail of bullets to keep you out of jail.

            I mean, I’m just assuming you don’t.

            There’s no way to elaborate on this statement without admitting that there’s at least a two-tiered legal system in place, which is the point being made. Biden had the opportunity to prosecute but did not because there is an unwritten rule that we don’t do that to certain people. Saying they didn’t have enough time is just taking the long way to the conclusion that nothing was ever going to happen.

            Unless maybe you’re aware of some law or rule that requires investigations and indictments of specific people to take much longer than normal?
