I guess that is why funding for children's health insurance was just vetoed by the president and we regularly prosecute children as adults, right?<BR/><BR/>I think what happened to this young man is part of the pro-business trend that has gotten so out of control in this country. It can't be any more obvious that human need at this point is tertiary in importance to the wealth and health of a corporation. Maybe they figured they could get away with this one extra easy because it was a "bad boy" in a disciplinary school, one, and two, a "Black one" to boot. Maybe they thought they would have the majority of white middle class suburbanites with them on this one so the kick back on the ruling wouldn't be so bad.<BR/><BR/>We are in some sick, inhumane times in this country, witness the denial of subsistance aid to immigrants during the CA fires, witness Katrina. How much worse is it going to get before it gets better? I know this is escapist fantasy on my part, but sometimes I think the best thing that could happen is for this whole damned country to be dismantled and for us to start anew.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20488696.post-82111294566061982002007-10-16T10:45:00.000-05:002007-10-16T10:45:00.000-05:00ACT...thanks for calling me out on my jive.
