You may wish to re-think that last sentence.

It means being an outcast on both race and class.

The sentence has other overtones...

and just don't see it. Of course I meant neighborhood and read it as neighborhood every single time...

something offensive in every sentence.

(drug) "dealings" ..in an affluent neighborhood.

as a black man in an affluent neighborhood.

Lol

He was close to losing it

he was so angry and hurt

but my husband got pissed at something someone said and turned the channel. ( I was out of the room )
I pick my battles.. lol

Hispanics...any one of color..

WTF on the air. The attorney he was interviewing told him to be careful.

That was close...he's mad and has a right to be furious, IMO.

The people/person she is admonishing all sat through the trial and say all the evidence the jury saw.

We all viewed the videos and saw the testimony. We also saw and heard the cockamamie excuses and explanations why Dunn fired in to a car full of unarmed teenagers.

One or more bigots on that jury hung the jury. Banfield should put a sock in it.

Is she taking lessons from Scarborough?

she is just showing her true colors..

prosecution overcharged with Murder 1, even though she charged attempted MURDER 2 for the other 3 passengers. The prosecutor is an overcharging idiot, if she had any sense, she would have included a murder 2 charge.

They charged 1st degree murder with the lesser charged of 2nd degree or manslaughter. So the jury could have found him guilty on either of those, but they couldn't decide on any of them.

The 3 attempted murder charges had the same choices and the jury decided on guilty of attempted 2nd degree.

that refused on principal to drop down to Murder 2? The victim was 17 a conviction for negligent manslaughter would have been treated as aggravated and he would have gone to jail for life. I am not sure what the prosecution is up to. On the other hand if it had been a black person who shot up a car full of white teenagers, I wonder if we would be having this same discussion.

I don't see them holding out on principal and refusing to go down to murder 2.

That would mean they believed this guy murdered this kid with premeditation (murder 1) but by refusing to compromise it means a mistrial and no verdict. That doesn't make sense. If a person wanted murder 1, they'd rather get a guilty of a lesser degree of murder rather than a hung jury/mistrial.

Or it will remain open season.

I cried and thought of this I posted 8 months ago...

Time these parents express their real anger.

He was choked up at some points. Truly moving.
