    That’s really not how that works.

    I expect you’re quite worried about this situation but try not to be so dismissive of others, please.

    Yes, in a very real sense it means that the Government can target their enemies with impunity. But in another very real sense it suddenly throws everyone over the barrier of having committed a ‘crime’ and may well remove any moral or ethical barrier one might feel in opposing the regime.

      That’s fair, I can see how starting my comment like that must have been really annoying. Sorry for that.
