    There used to be a notion in Jewish law that if a law or rule caused a bad/evil thing to happen one time in ten, it was a bad law.

    Since learning of that, I’ve always wondered what the point in having a law that goes un-prosecuted more than one times in ten is. By that metric, and murder stats alone, the legal system and priorities of law enforcement in the US have been obviously and near-completely broken for quite some time. (To be clear, if we’re not dealing with murder, I don’t see the point in the concept of “law” in the first place)

    Seriously, what business does the US have policing women’s healthcare and deporting ANYONE when 1 in three murderers is getting away with it?
