The biggest crimes are not murder or stealing from regular people, it's threatening corporate profits.

But corporations are people.

Laws for thee and not for me…

Corporations are people ?

Dumb shit to do but a felony? That's just excessive. This is no violent crime, and it's not a large scale one either.

Once again the law seems to care more to serve corporate interest than what is just.

Corporate interests pay politicians and judges who make and pass laws. This guy stole a game and gets a felony, but did anything happen to those who cause financial crisis or housing crisis? They usually get bonuses
