I think I see your point but the slippery slope goes both ways.

Right now a certain class of criminals operate with impunity in Seattle. Our laws are not perfect and I even acknowledge the bias in drug prosecution but the solution to those problems is changing the laws, not ignoring them.

Contrary to popular belief we do in fact have a functional judiciary and legislature in this country.
