Two-Tier Chatter

 Yesterday, I sat and watched a interview of a police-chief....from a small town outside of Springfield, Ohio (yeah, that Haitian topic).   

So he got into this odd observation....if you drive through his town and violate the driving code....he issues a ticket for a misdemeanor.   He notes that in Springfield (from his talks wih police there)...a normal Springfield resident would get a driving code tick (misdemeanor), but if you were Haitian....just a warning.  Yeah, it's called two-tier policing.  Reason?  Normally, with two convictions on misdemeanors....your application for residency or citizenship....is suspended.

If you were in serious trouble, for a felony?  Well...under the two-tier system, if you were Haitian....I would imagine that  the DA/Prosecutor....would drop the case for lack of evidence.

So you imagine x-state existing....having a hundred felony actions per day called in, and a quarter of them done by non-Americans.  The crimes would just disappear and never be a collected statistic....if the DA folks did their duty to overlook the non-Americans.

What does this say about the legal system?  It's failed....in more ways than one.

Do any of the statically-collected numbers in the 50 states make sense?  No. You can throw all of them out.

After a while, if the non-Americans grasped the situation....why bother obeying any law....two-tier living protects you.
