The grabbers with effectively unlimited resources keep filing crap they know is wrong just to keep depleting defender resources.
Seven members of the Adams County Sheriff’s Office who raided Joseph Foreman’s home last year are now suing him claiming, among other things, that he invaded their privacy. Four deputies, two sergeants and a detective are claiming Foreman (a.k.a. “Afroman”) took footage of their faces obtained during the raid and used it in music videos and social media posts without their consent… They’re also suing on civil grounds, saying Foreman’s use of their faces (i.e. personas) in the videos and social media posts resulted in their “emotional distress, embarrassment, ridicule, loss of reputation and humiliation.” [More]
After they invaded his privacy.
To paraphrase Rhett Butler, they should be humiliated, and often. And by someone who knows how. But they’re trying to hide from that:

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is asking the Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling that struck down a federal law preventing people under domestic violence-related restraining orders from having guns. [More]

Bill would make children’s statements mostly inadmissible if law enforcement lied to them [More]
They can do it to the rest of us, but a homicidal “teen” gang reptile or a budding school shooter is immune? That’s what it’s about, and they’ve found no shortage of Republicans to make it “bipartisan.”
Maybe there’s a loophole we could argue to get the same benefits.

It depends upon what the meaning of the term “gun crime” is.
And if someone victimizes someone else, the object can’t be to teach them “that human life has value and that they can’t just go around putting people in danger like that.”
It’s to keep them away from people they can victimize until such time as they’ve proven they can be trusted without a custodian.
