Let me see if I have this straight. An undercover narcotics officer
posing as a cancer patient can legally arrest Marvin Chavez after the
people of California voted for Proposition 215,the medical marijuana
initiative. The same tactic used by the FBI to snag corrupt
politicians taking bribes, however, was ruled illegal in the aftermath
of ABSCAM.

I guess it's OK to arrest a cancer patient looking for some pain
relief but not OK to arrest corrupt politicians falling all over each
other to grab illegal money. Sadly, it seems, the rule of law is dead
and the monarchy lives.
