I'm no expert, but people say that the Law can be pretty opaque at times. For example, how do you work out the Law of Bass (LOB) on the Big Pond when the temperature climbs into triple digits? Team LSP's been putting some effort into that lately and we haven't cracked the Codex yet, but we will, it's not over yet. Then there's the FBI and Hillary. Here's what our East Coast Legal Expert (ECLE) has to say:
The aspect of this whole mess that really gets my goat is that every first year law student is taught about mens rea (intent) for criminal law and the difference in laws between crimes requiring a specific mens rea (intentional murder, rape), lower mens rea (manslaughter - only needs reckless actions) and those that don't (strict liability crimes (ex. statutory rape, speeding, etc.). The statute in this debacle specifically calls for a "gross negligence" standard in order for the statute to be broken. Her extreme carelessness definitely qualifies to meet this standard. Comey's assertion that she didn't have intent and therefore he wasn't recommending charges is completely at odds with the law. Again, any first year law student who was given this question on an exam and didn't prosecute would fail. This is Law 101. Either Comey was bought off or he didn't want to end up like Vince Foster. Or it's just one more nail in the legal/judicial coffin that we've experienced under Obama (Supreme Court decisions uphold Obamacare, gay marriage, etc.).
Thanks, ECLE, perhaps it's a case of all of that.
Have we reached the point where a rich, corrupt, ruling elite are now operating without even basic regard for the laws everyone else has to follow and feel free to blatantly disregard them? It seems that we have.
Not dissimilar, when you think about it, to predatory Bass, would be tyrants of the Big Pond.
Fish on,

Hook the bass in the name of ridding the pond of tyrants!!!
It's operated like this since the snake fooled Eve and Adam fell for it, too. Thing is - they've tried to hide their activities. Not anymore. It's right there and in your face. I've been listening to the Comey hearings all morning, and Comey's statements are way beyond what any "reasonable" person would believe.
We've gone from the "reasonable person" standard in the law to the "unreasonable person". And it's like throwing a knuckleball because you never know where it will end up...likely not over home plate unless by accident.
It boggles the mind that there is so much in your face pride in their criminality! Vote them all out in Nov, install term limits, and take back our country.
I wish fixing our government was as easy (?) as catching fish. Perhaps we need to draw down the pond to get rid of the noxious weeds.
Fish are biting in Toledo Bend, I've read; but Fishing with a heat index of 110 just wipes me out!
Good luck, LSP!
One of the larger problems stemming from this is the clear double standard held by the DOJ. Under the Obama regime, we've seen time and again when the DOJ would go after certain people because they weren't progressive, while at the same time defending progressives who had clearly broken the law.
That, bass lovers, is precisely the point when our Republic failed and the US Constitution was put through the Bass-o-matic to be shredded.
We must hook the tyrant Bass, LL!
They're getting brazen, Adrienne.
Couldn't agree more, Brighid.
The triple digits aren't easy, Linda, that's for sure... but my mind is set on breaking the summer bass code.
It seems that some pigs are more equal than others, Euripides. I don't see how this can end other than badly.
One simple (and new) word: TEXIT!
The law seems to rule more in Texas Government than in the Federal Government though we do have our progressive elitist in Travis County trying the same tricks.
