Would you have us put money laundering at #1 and let people die? be raped? Accusing me of being pro money laundering is like me accusing people of being pro rape, basically being stupid and ridiculous  We pursue all crimes, and choose to allocate more resources to the worst crimes. Its just logic. |
Real life police departments function very differently from the Zootopia one; there isn't one guy saying "ten of you handle murders, five of you handle drugs, blah blah blah... Bob takes money laundering, Judy's on parking duty."
There's usually multiple branches (arson, vice, traffic, etc), and multiple levels of jurisdiction - an international laundering scheme is way over the heads of your average patrolman or homicide detective and is best resolved by a task force funded by a higher level of government.

We just had two big money laundering cases that failed, likely the work of several years of investigation. Did the cases which were the result of several years of criminal investigation during the BC Liberals get rushed at the end and fail because of the NDP and their big ass mouths? Who knows.

Then Alberta's welcome to it - I give it five years before
they get fed up and set the same rules, and then the dirty money moves to Saskatchewan or Manitoba. The Soylent Corporation is probably good for the economy, but that doesn't mean I want it coming here.
Link to those investigations? The Libs have so far been in the habit of shutting investigations
down because they know the trail will lead back to them.
