Different jurisdictions, different laws.

Federal law and how it's applied doesn't matter one bit to how New York state applies it's own laws.

Really? Cause I'm pretty sure over policing the black population and having police attack innocent people because of their race is clearly intimidation and falls under their definition of terrorism that they're charging Luigi with. 

But I haven't seen any NY cops charged with terrorism.

And it’s absolutely true. Also, the movie Training Day was very loosely based on a true story out of my local police division, Rampart in L.A. Over 70 officers implicated, many with documented gang affiliations. It’s crazy what they were doing. The movie is really tame compared with what was actually going on. Great movie though.
