You could make this argument about anything. We should have no laws, because they might be abused by a malicious prosecutor. Utter nonsense.

We should indeed get rid of many laws because the benefit is outweighed by the abuse.

America has one of the highest rates of incarceration in the world (used to be #1) but suggest that maybe we're overcriminalized and you must be talking nonsense.
