All moring we have seen on the news people marching in protest and of the 6 black teens that were jailed for beating he heck out of a white teen to the point where he was unconscious. All morning I have heard people being interviewed saying they did not believe that these boys were being treated fairly and that they should not be in in jail.
WHAT????
OK... I am confused. We talk about equal justice. Well... If this had been the other way around, if there was a black teen that had been beated up by 6 white teens everyone would be then screeming that this was a hate crime and demanded that these boys be punished.
I just don't understand. From the outside, it appears that it is not equal justice that is being sought. It looks as though they (they being the people protesting) are looking for special treatment.
