While it doesn't cover political favors, this is often the case. My sis got max fine for running a red light with the school bus she was driving because, as a professional driver, she was held to a higher standard. As a member rep on Prodigy (equivilant go a mod here) I had to make sure that I met a standard less restrictive than here. Yes, I even had some posts pulled. Very far and few between, but it happens.
Funny that my virginity posts a couple weeks ago weren't NSFW. Although my holiday post I self identified as NSFW.
