What does it mean when laws are not enforced or even overlooked in favor of immunity?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualified_immunity

To quote from wikipedia: A 2020 Reuters report concurred with Sotomayor, concluding that "the Supreme Court has built qualified immunity into an often insurmountable police defense by intervening in cases mostly to favor the police". The report reviewed over 200 cases involving excess force by police since 2007, and found since the 2009 Pearson change from mandatory sequencing to discretionary sequencing, plaintiffs have had a more difficult time moving their case past the qualified immunity stage.

Some people are above the law. I never said I approved of the system.
