If a group within the government is breaking a law, knowingly breaking a law, then each person that knew there was a law being broken ( because lets face it, some people have no clue as to what is going on

) should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

UGHHHH, liberal nonsense. If you commit a crime, you should be punished swiftly, and severely. More of this = less crime.
