“It’s an attack on our government, as well a disenfranchisement of the voters who by a majority voted the guy in, whether we like it or not.”
If Elijah Cummings had this happen to him, I’d feel the same way I do about Rand Paul: 20 years hard time, for the above reason. And that’s _above and beyond_ the injury to the person.
And, the earlier decision was also racist and discriminatory. Let’s face it, people of lesser means don’t have the same opportunities to become “educated, upstanding (whatever the heck that means) members of the community”. It was an absolute outrage of privileges and biases.
Thanks for the comments of agreement.
Was the guy Black? If so I hadn’t heard that.
The verdict was outrageous, no doubt about it.
