That might make sense if she was busted selling drugs in Times Square
but she was charged with submitting false documents to obtain a work
visa for her housekeeper. Is it likely this Indian diplomat would be
carrying a concealed weapon into the courthouse? Sometimes you've got
to use common sense. If the law says *everyone* entering the holding
cellsgets strip searched then the law is an ass.
There is no class privilege over here in the U.S.A. unlike over in
India. It's easier that way, nobody gets special treatment, rich or
poor - everyone is equal under the law.
What about Jamie Dimon? What about Lloyd Blankfein? You and I do what
they did and we would definitely feel the long arm of the law. But they
believe they're doing "God's work." Think we could get off with the
same excuse?
