Ho singled out the police, stating that he was perturbed by their “unabashedly selective behavior.”
“In these already troubling times, this is an exceedingly troubling case. It’s bad enough when private citizens mistreat others because of their political views. It’s beyond the pale when law enforcement officials weaponize the justice system to punish their political opponents. One is terrible. But the other is totalitarian,” he said.
“I’m grateful that the majority of our court will not stand for that here,” he continued. “I just wish we were unanimous in this regard.”
