I think that’s more a thing whether you appreciate law and order and a government following rules. An individual might be really bad. But are we a civilised democracy and follow the procedures that come with it? Or are we some dictatorship or a bunch of barbarians and do whatever feels right on a given day? That’s not really concerned with Epstine specifically. But we need to pick one if the two options.
