re: DAs refusing to prosecute abortion crimes

quote:

---

“District attorneys in Louisiana have unbridled discretion to decide what sorts of cases to prosecute and which sorts of offenses to let go unprosecuted,” Ciolino said. “If a local DA were to say 'I'm not going to prosecute abortion in my district,' there's nothing anybody could do about that. Now, there's an element of lawlessness to it, with a DA essentially saying I understand what the law is, enacted by the Legislature and signed by the governor, but the law doesn't matter to me.”

Modern day version of let them eat cake. It sure as hell didn't work out last time, interested to see this time.

I personally don't care one way or the other about Roe, but I truly think with runaway inflation, housing issues, and possible food shortages there are going to be plenty of people thinking violence is the only answer, and politicians have historically made great targets.

I am not endorsing that behavior, but history has shown that lack of food, shelter, and unabashed rejection of the will of the people result in executions.
