Two cultural phenomenan are threatening America today. Both came to the forefront in what turned out
to be relatively minor stories reported in the news.
The first is related to the bus beatings in Florida a month
or two ago. Three black teens beat up a
white boy on a bus as the driver followed school procedures and called the
police rather than intervening himself.
These teens just about killed this boy, who was injured and has since
transferred to another school. The teens
were sentenced to....get this....probation and anger management courses. You've got to be kidding me. In addition, there will be random drug testing
and for sixty days they will have to wear an ankle monitor. Oh ya...they are not allowed to contact the
victim.
I don't know what happened here. If the race components were reversed these
kids would be charged as adults and be saddled with a Federal hate crime
rap. This kind of punishment is
inappropriate and insulting to the victim and the rest of us. These kids were dealing drugs in a
school. They should expelled and
sentenced minimally to a juvenile facility until they are twenty-one, both for
the sake of the victim and their own good.
Maybe they might get an education.
I suspect that there may have been a problem with the testimony of the
victim and a reluctance to go forward out of fear. Who knows?
The coverage, however, was minimal even on Fox News...and that's too
bad. No wonder the Zimmerman's of the
world feel they have to be out on the streets.
The next outrage took place in Billings, Montana, where a 49
year old teacher was charged with raping his 14 year old student who later
committed suicide. He pled guilty and
was sentenced to...are you ready...30 days in jail with credit for time
served. The judge, in his comments
attending the sentencing, referenced the young girl's sexual demeanor...she was
old for her age.
This wasn't a "rape" rape. It may very well have been consensual with the
statutory rape statutes coming into effect.
The victim, however, was troubled.
The teacher used his counseling role to nudge the young lady into bed
with him. The reports did not say
whether Montana has a mandatory sentencing statute applied to teachers who
have sex with their students.
Prosecutors are upset and are frantically looking for some way to appeal
the decision, but are coming up empty.
The judge has since "apologized" in one of the more bizarre
videos I have seen as of late.
The collapse of rule of law, political correctness, and the
growing tolerance for abhorrent behavior in our country is growing. It contributes to the disgust of Americans as
the government ramps up its surveillance of all Americans while letting the bad
guys get away with just about anything.
And you wonder why our country is going down the toilet!!!
