Let's flip the script a bit.  DO you think what happened to the McClosky's is acceptable?  Should they have been prosecuted after the misconduct was admitted?  Should the governor have pardoned them?  Why or why not?

Maybe actually answering pertinent questions will get you out of GMDabo mode.

Er, one doesn't "refute" statements like this: 

Hahaha, I wonder if you knew what an ass you look like with this smarmy routine.

They are not really "points" and certainly not arguments.

And let's NOT "flip the script" if that means treating a case in which no one served jail time and or showed repentance for the crime
to which he/she pled guilty as one which rises to the level of pardon application.

I've already explained why I don't agree with burning a pardon on a misdemeanor case, which didn't require a pardon,
while ignoring so many more deserving cases which do require one. (And the pardon is "burned" because the time and effort spent on it could have been spent on serious cases involving decades of lost freedom for innocents.) 

If you think a pardon should be spent on a misdemeanor case already amenable to other legal resolution, instead of the many more serious applications already on the governor's desk, then you should explain why.

Whether the prosecutors of misdemeanor violations should have been prosecuted is not pertinent to the question of whether the
misdemeanor violations of unrepentant perps should rise to the level of pardon.

So far it does not look like you are interested in the implications of the McCloskey case for the institution of the pardon; you just
want to go over the prosecutorial misconduct in a case involving 2A issues.
