The title says it all. The law is supposed to be the law. We as everyday
citizens are told to live our lives by these laws, to operate within them,
and if we step outside of these boundaries created for us, then there will be
consequences. Well, that's how we live - but not the elite.
The elite lives by another set of laws. Sure, they have a code of conduct
among themselves; yet, the laws that you and I live by in many cases simply
do not apply to them. We have seen this time and time again throughout
history. The rich get a free pass for doing horrendous or highly negligent
acts - things that would land any average citizen behind bars, or worse.
Hillary Clinton just so happens to be a part of this club. FBI Director
Comey, in a recent press conference, gave her the green light on her illegal
use of using a private email server from her private residence when she was
the Secretary of Defense, one of the highest ranking officials in the United
States.
This is a position that, more than anyone, you are supposed to know what
is right or wrong. You are supposed to be operating with the utmost security
to protect classified documents and information that could lead to the harm
of your citizens and your country. Hillary Clinton, by doing what she did,
threw caution to the wind and stated the obvious - "I am above the
law."
Sadly, this has proven to be the truth. Anyone else would be convicted, charged,
and sitting behind bars. The elite has overplayed their hand in this
scenario. They have pulled back the curtain and spit in the faces of the
American people, exposing to all how there is a dual system of laws: one for
them, and one for the everyday men and women of the United States.
A precedent has now been set, and lawlessness will run amuck in the
highest branches of the U.S. government. More so than even now exists, if
that is even possible.
For the everyday person, if this does not shock you out of your coma, and
make you see the world for how it truly is, run by the elite for their profit
and our detriment, then I don't know what ever will.
Fortunately, I believe that more and more people are waking up, faster
than ever in history. The trend towards shunning the elite and breaking away
from their control, as seen with the recent success via Brexit, is going to
continue. For our sake and for the sake of the still-ignorant masses, let's
hope that it does.
