so if I'm talking about something other than the jogger, that means I don't care?

Find who did it, and execute him. Fair enough?

"But thier upset that a judge locked up a hairdresser for staying.open after lock down restrictions in texas."

It's different. It wasn't an official instrument of the government that killed that jogger, just some jerk who needs to be dealt with. What happened to the salon owner, is indicative of how crazy things have gotten. Not saying that's worse, because it's not, nobody died.

But being concerned about one, doesn't mean you can't simultaneously be concerned about the other.

Jim bigger picture.. i wasn't speaking at you specifically .. but lets review if you commit war crimes your OK with trump supporters
if you lie about the russians and got fired for lying from the POTUS your Ok with his supporters

Ms Luther was fined $7,000 (£5,652) and was warned that she would be fined a further $500 a day from now until Friday if the business continued to remain open. She was ordered to remain in jail for seven days after the judge found her guilty of contempt of court.

Judge Moyé told Ms Luther: "The rule of law governs us. People cannot take it upon themselves to determine what they will and will not do."

shes ok with trump supporters

If your a Captain of an aircraft carrier and didn't go along with Covid 19 line coming out of the white house your not ok with his supporters

the Judge who locked her up is not ok with Trump supporters

a this says it all in trump land

I'm not supporting Flynn. I support the idea that the FBI can't go after someone for political reasons, no matter who it is. This isn't about Flynn, as much as it's about the FBI. All you see is Flynn getting let off, you can't focus on what the FBI did, or why they might have done it.

If Flynn committed a crime, he should be punished. But law enforcement has to go about it the right way, they can't be motivated by politics, and they can't entrap him. DO you agree with that?

Alan Dershowitz is very very liberal, and a Harvard Law School professor, and he says it was "absolutely the right thing" to drop it.

The FBI knew Flynn had lied before the interview. Getting him to continue his dishonesty on the record isn't entrapment, it's good police work. Think about it, Obama slaps sanctions on Russia for election interference, Flynn talks to Russia about it, then lies to cover it up. The FBI didn't engineer this...it is the facts from the case.

The FBI assistant director asked if the goal was "to get him to lie". That's very different from "see if he already lied".

Anyway, Alan Dershowitx is a subject matter expert (unlike you) who is a rare person that doesn't always agree with one side or the other (also very unlike you). He therefore has some credibility..

I'm not defending what Flynn did. This is about what the FBI did. The libs here won't go near the FBI's actions, because it doesn't fit the Narrative.

Are you so freaking naive as to think agents don't come up with a strategy to get more evidence to support their investigation?

Nobody is saying the FBI engineered what he did before the investigation. But the FBI did engineer the way they chose to conduct themselves.

Did you read what the assistant director of the FBI wrote, before the first conversation with Flynn? Yes or no?
