A white man needs to go shoplift a bunch of stuff, get arrested, and see if he gets released. If not, sue for equal protection under the law. This can’t be allowed to stand.
I was wondering the same thing.
“A white man needs to go shoplift a bunch of stuff, get arrested, and see if he gets released.”
Good idea. IF the prosecutor assigned to his case doesn’t have a chip on his shoulder and throw the book at the one white guy that has appeared on his case-load in the past year. And, IF the guy arrested is allowed a phone call to ask his family to find an attorney to represent him.
And IF an attorney in NY would be willing to take the risk of representing a white guy. And IF the prosecution doesn’t withhold exculpatory evidence. And IF he is allowed a speedy trial and all the rights afforded him under the Constitution.
Otherwise, one who takes such an action may just disappear into the NY justice system and prisons never to be heard from again.
