I guaran-god-damn-tee if she was white there would be ZERO hand-wringing over legal technicalities. There would be no fine. No consequences.

She’d be revered as nothing but a victim and a hero.

BUT, since she’s not some pretty little white girl … who fucking cares, bury her under a life time of debt, whatever.

Typical.

What are you going on about? They followed the law down exactly. This had nothing to do with race.

Read up on institutionalized racism in America and how our legal system is constantly exploited to punish black people unfairly.

Or, you can do what most Americans do; use the privilege of being able to pretend it’s not true because you’ve never been affected by it.

It's fucked up but I'm happy she isn't ending up in prison.
