Quote:Rich Trump backer convicted of inaugural weekend sex abuse of hotel maids got wrist slap, tiny fine
Quote:On the weekend of President Donald Trump’s inauguration, a millionaire businessman who traveled to D.C. to celebrate the new president’s swearing-in was arrested and charged with sexual battery of two hotel maids at Washington’s downtown Mayflower hotel.
The reported Sunday night that John Joseph Boswell was later convicted of misdemeanor sexual battery, sentenced to 10 days in jail — which he did not serve — and a mere six months’ probation, during which he was allowed to vacation in the Bahamas.
Boswell, the Post said, is the CEO of “Independent Stave Company, the world’s largest wine-and-whiskey barrel manufacturer. He lives in a 14,000-square-foot, $7 million mansion in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., 20 miles from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.”
Yeah. Make 'Murrica Great Again.

I find that people with too much money and power at their disposal become less human.

And now he sees how far his power extends. Why would he stop himself from doing something similar again? All he really lost was a little bit of his reputation, if that.

"Equal under the law" has always been an ideal, a fiction never achieved.

Yeah, this saying was made when many men and women were slaves, and everyone who wasn't a straight white christian wealthy man has had to fight to be treated equally.

I said it before and ill say it again the law's are only for the poor and the working class.
Those who enforce the law itself can and do get away with this shit as well but not in most cases.
Like this current case and with betty shelby i mean those who seen the video know's she killed a unarmed man.
Even in her testimony the video contradicts exactly what happened the guy had his hands up he didn't reach into the car
he was murdered.

so no one is equal under penalty of law

No doubt about that. Never stay quiet. Things only get better when we stand up for ourselves.
