Tell me, do you do your financial planning based on visits from the Tooth Fairy?
Or do you expect everyone to be "equal before the law"? Which is about the same level of fatuity, legitimizing myths to the contrary.
Y'know, DNA analysis has shown that 8% of the population of the former Mongol Empire are descended from Genghis Khan (Temujin) and his sons and grandsons.
Do you think that this was because they were so charming women threw themselves on their backs whenever they showed up?
Any other basic facts of human existence you need to be enlightened on? Oh, and babies are not brought by storks...
It's like back in the days of Jim Crow, when the Klan would murder some voting-rights worker and the cops would look the other way because they were pals with the Klan and hated voting-rights workers. And lots of people said, "Hey, that's not right!" Morons. I mean the people who said it wasn't right. Obviously the big problem, the one we should have focused our energy and anger on, is that those people weren't sufficiently cynical about the role of the police.
What I expect is accurate reporting and for cops to protect people who are being assaulted even if they like the person doing the assaulting more.

If all you want is a little badge that says "most cynical commenter" I'll see what I can do.
Cynicism is realism.
