I constantly hear about (companies, organizations, people...) agreeing to support a proposed law on the contingency of their being exempt from said law. There are also just straight up laws that do not apply to certain groups, classes ,or (it seems like most often) elected officials in politics.
I would like this thread to serve as a central location to collect all the examples of "I'm more equal than you" as you find them. If you see an article, thread, or example of this, come here and post a link, summary, or description of it.
I've made mental note for years of these but the thread on the Carmel mayor not having to take a drug test because he is an elected official reminded me that I wanted to start a collection. https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/general-political-discussion/437456-carmel-follies.html
"Not only was His Mayorship not cited, it seems that city employees driving city vehicles involved in accidents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing...UNLESS they are elected officials."
Other examples?
EDIT: Oh yeah, the other recent example of such behavior is the COLT company debacle being reported by Militaryarms channel so well.
