    How can a crime vary by ideology? Criminal implies legalities. How can your ideological point of view change whether or not a law was broken?

      I mean. There’s an entire Supreme Court dedicated to interpretting the USA’s original “law”, the Constitution. They recently reevaluated the meaning of Roe vs Wade. And each judge applies their own interpretation to laws in criminal cases, mostly bounded by prior rulings on the matter only to maintain consistency. Some times laws aren’t so cut and dry.
