    “Busted” in a way they will continue to do it. Courts are captured, feds will bail them out at one level and or another, after they pay their deductible on their protection plan. State courts are fucked in their own right, and prosecutors are pulling punches anyway, no backup from the party, no air support, as if we didn’t know how to play realpolitik.

      Yeah this isn’t “you’re busted for fucking over the little guy,” at best this is “you’re busted for fucking over the little guy without giving us our cut.” They pay a cost of doing business fine and carry on with their bullshit.
