I have never believed in equal treatment under the law.
A homeless man who steals a candy bar from a convenience store must be regarded differently from a juvenile from a better home who steals the same candy bar simply because he thought no one was looking.
A citizen who defames a politician must be regarded differently from a political office holder who defames a citizen even if that citizen is his political opponent.
I believe the higher your station in life, the more exacting the standards society should impose on you, and the harsher should be your penalty if you violate those standards.
