Generally speaking, black males are responsible for a majority of violent crimes.

Sure. I don't disagree.

They aren't jailed b/c of their political association, race, etc.

I apply the same arguments across the board, like Trump, the J6ers, Rudy, etc.

Groups who commit more crimes get prosecuted more often.

That local law enforcement selective enforcement or wrongful enforcement is of more concern than the full pollicization of federal agencies?

That is true, but not my specific argument ITT, other than to stop people trying to qualify the good/bad LEO based on perceive in/out group dynamics and partisanship.

So, you think Republicans are more predisposed to committing political crimes?

When did we start prosecuting groups? There's a word for that.

This is the error in your thinking. I cannot come up with any examples of local selective enforcement on the basis of political association (although there must be some), but the selective enforcement and pollicization of the majority of J6'ers and the obsessive "Get Trump" brigade is obvious to anyone who looks at it without lying to themselves.
If you are not with the uniParty you eventually will find yourself getting the same treatment. It will happen to you or those you care about. It must be stopped at all costs or this country is lost (if it already isn't). I am old and have seen this movie before. The US is not magically immune to becoming a totalitarian state and this is just the beginning if immediate steps are not taken. Too many people see no problem with the politicization of government bureaucracies, intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and the judicial system because it fits their personal narrative and viewpoints. They cannot even see it happening and they are blind to it because in their twisted viewpoint it is the seemingly righteous result of what they are told is illegal, criminal behavior on the part of their political opponents.
This is the most dangerous threat to the continuation of our Republic that has occured since the Civil War. I say this without hyperbole. You can continue to believe what you want and make the false equivalencies that preserve your worldview or you can open your eyes and see that this country is rotting from the inside.
