Law enforcement in the US exists to enforce the existing social order (including that of class and race), not to pursue justice or universally/fairly enforce laws. This isn’t some conspiracy theory, but is well documented in the history of policing in the USA, both at the local and federal level.

It is a tool used by the ownership class (via selective enforcement) to legally mitigate threats to their social, economic, and political dominance.

This is why minorities are disproportionately represented in prison for disproportionately minor crimes, and why rich white people doing the same drugs don’t generally get in any trouble.

This is also why police, the essential enforcers in the system, are generally permitted to commit as much minor crime (except against members of the ownership class) as they wish. The system falls down without their cooperation.

Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
