How was my first comment supportive of oppressive systems? Saying a prosecutor can't unilaterally decide weed isn't a crime doesn't mean I support prosecuting it. I don't think she's the best but at least leave up reasonable comments.

"She was just doing her job" isn't a defense when her job was literally that of the oppressor.
