> Law enforcement doesn't have enough free hands to go after every crime, therefore which crimes are pursued is always a choice.

Misses the point. It's somebody's choice, but it's not always the law enforcement agency's choice. If the FBI director's boss tells him to raid TPB, his choices are "do the raid" or "get fired."

I would guess it's more satisfying to go after real criminals, but they have to follow their orders.

The FBI?? You realize this is taking place in Sweden right?

Fucking hell, talk about America world police :(

Do you really think Swedish law enforcement works so completely differently that the comparison is invalid?
