rittenhouse should’ve been federal… but he (supposedly) crossed state lines to enforce the law and ended up murdering someone….

they definitely selectively enforce it, like when some anarchists drove from portland to Seattle in order to spray paint a courthouse during a protest: that became federal charges because they anarchists, mostly….
i was honestly surprised when states were charging luigi instead of the feds at first
