“In case you missed it, Rosa Parks was not beaten to a pulp.”

In case you missed it, many, many blacks WERE beaten to a pulp during that time. And hung. And shot. And blown up. Just for existing. And if Parks had been beaten that day, it’s a pretty solid bet that her assailants wouldn’t have been arrested. Unfortunately, that’s the way it was.

Kreager’s assailants were obviously in the wrong and should pay for it. But I really don’t see what Rosa Parks has to do with this.

You don't want to go there.
Seriously.

There is absolutely no excuse for violent racist behavior 50 years after the problem was "fixed" (at least as far white folk are concerned). Check the statistics; I'll leave it at that.
