If we also assume we live in a world with equal application of the law regardless of political party, and without a corrupt DOJ and judicial system, with no entrapment and no self defense arguments, then I’ll grant the assumption that those deemed criminals should be charged.
Your hypothetical is stupid. You need to evaluate the facts of each case given this corrupt DOJ. That’s implausible given the far sweeping corruption and numbers of political prisoners, I would err on the side of releasing one person who “beat up” a cop over wrongfully imprisoning one person who didn’t for a single additional day.
