You can “try” it anywhere. We will see what happens next.

This one got noticed, but they usually get away. Small towns rally around this sort of thing and preserve criminals very effectively. Small states are the same. Poor rule of law.

Not a small town thing. There isn’t a town or city of any size in America that isn’t woefully deficient in rule of law. It’s just whatever artificial camp you get thrown into that decides which corruption you overlook.

Is there a lot of suppression corruption in big cities? I was under the impression that it's mostly embezzlement and theft. San Francisco, for instance, is solidly in the hands of unbelievably corrupt people (one of the supervisors here, Peskin, pulled off a bunch of shady shit - which makes me think the others are too), but I was under the impression 1A stuff was safe.

Still, I suppose there was all the stuff about Jeff Adachi and what the cops did to the journalists there, so I suppose your point is sound.
