One out of every 8 African-American youth who are convicted of killing someone will be sentenced to life without parole, however this is only the case for one out of every 13 white youth convicted of murder.[i] 

You mean no one would sentence a minor with her ethnicity to life in prison.

No. She. Isn’t.

It’s really been such a (in retrospect, very unsurprising) disappointment to see the way in which all these venues that were supposed to be “democratizing” have become, in reality, anything but. The cesspool-dwellers, true to form, have decided that any space they can infiltrate is indeed their space, they merely have…

This.

Moen is 18 not 9. She’s not a kid. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.

She has the wrong skin color for a harsher sentence.

Showed the WaPo article to a friend, she made the mistake of going into the comments and quickly found these two near the top. Spectacular.

This happened in Texas. She got 15 years in Texas for attempting —and nearly succeeding— to stab a woman to death, and gleefully journaling about it and how great it made you feel.

I do love it when people get their comeuppance. It doesn’t happen often enough. It’s too bad Yelp got hip to this and will eventually remove those reviews. Hopefully not in time to have them lose some money.

Or racist people, have been hiding their racism. They have decided that now that Trump is president, they don’t have to hide it anymore.

Bugg said that he had eaten at Just Wing It many times before, but had never seen the manager.

It’s on all of us to call this shit out when we see it to combat bystander effect, but especially if you have privilege. Record it on the sly if it’s not safe to actively confront and stand with the victim afterward.
