You’ll have to excuse me if I’m a lot less concerned about white collar crime than I am about a government that systematically targets people who look like me.
But speaking of which, the government is also run by a President who actually quoted a segregationist governor about how to deal with protestors.
As far as crimes, he also was fined for both running a fake charity and a fake “university” and members of Congress basically got away with insider trading pre-Covid.
But your statement kind of demonstrates the problem. Unarmed Black people are getting killed by police and it getting covered up by corrupt government. When I have to worry about my son who has grown up all of his life in the burbs being seen as a threat because he is a big Black guy living in a predominantly White city, I really don’t give a damn about a corrupt CEO compared to a corrupt justice system.
