      Please. Imagine if this wasn’t in a “first” world country. Imagine if say France or South Africa was doing this. The whole world would be complaining and shouting about how bad it is. But since the USA is “one of the good ones” we just turning a blind eye???

        We don’t turn a blind eye. We just accept that that is how live is in a Third World country.

          I love that America isn’t turning a blind eye, but other countries are. Australia news (as fas as i know) isn’t reporting the facts like this

        The backing of the Commander In Chief, Congress, and the Supreme Court. Written laws don’t matter right now.
