Seriously, I don’t know why so many people get this wrong!
We give guns to our cops to enforce the laws, and we should have higher expectations for the handling of their weapon than random schmuck off the street licensed gun owner.
We give the military and various other resources and powers to the President to execute the laws. They should also be held to an even higher standard! A bad guy as President can do a million times as much damage than they can as a cop.
Agree. These people are given the public trust. betraying the public trust should result in severe punishment. More severe than a random schmuck doing the same act, cause that random schmuck wasnt given the public trust and the power of authority.
Romney again trying to ride both dicks at the same time.
I, for one, am sick of this whole “Oh lets pardon the past president to protect the institution of presidency”
Presidents should not be above the law. They are not gods, they are not kings, they are elected as representatives.
especially when the one in question turned the white house into a goddamn criminal enterprise

But then the people who want to use that public trust for personal gain won’t want to run for office! Then what!?!
I know you are joking, but you have no idea how many times i’ve heard legitimate arguments like that…especially with regards to police.
You know how we protect the institution of the presidency? We stop having presidents that break the law.
Agreed. I too am so sick of this ass-kissing authoritarian BS. They’re not kings. They served in an office and now they’re out. They’re humans FFS.
