Not only "ok with criminality as long as it’s their side doing it", also ok as long as only the other side get caught and penalized. And also ok with minority rule as long as they are minority: The issue of changing the border of Oregon was on Swedish radio yesterday: The reporter asked someone who said: "Well you know we have this right to be governed by the people we want". No more questions! No mention of basic democracy, that you have the right to be governed by the majority, which might very well not be the people you want. The depth of ignorance was left to speak for itself. In these times I think we need journalists who make it clear that claiming a right does not always make it legitimate.
