Metallica had it right. The money tipped the scales of justice yet again.
This saga is over and the rich white (well orange in this case) assholes have won yet again.
How do we get the 37 felony convictions and zero jail time or fines deal? It's like they want to rub our noses in it. To laugh at us. To shame us.
I feel like an idiot to have believed, even for a short time, that maybe the states could bring us some sort of justice and accountability.
We now have to face the reality that for at least the next four years, an emboldened TSF that now knows, beyond any doubt, that he will never face any criminal judgement no matter what he does.
This, more than anything, scares me.
I'm not sure what is coming in 10 days but it's not going to be good for anyone.

"broke the law," while he breaks every law with impunity. Our legal system is a travesty.
