Never confuse the explicit claims of politicians and their actual goals. Only fools take the claims at face value — and there are lots of fools. Problem being, the fools are not just victims getting deserved punishment, but also accomplices in victimizing others.
A politician all over my twitter feed hosted a "petition"... she never was stupid enough to believe the petition would achieve its claimed effect—but the circulation of it did achieve the effect she wanted most: having lots of people repeat her name and link to her website.
