RACISM IN BOULDER
Question for the enlightened citizens of Boulder: Are you as outraged at
this latest sham being perpetrated by the district attorney and police as
you were with South Carolina's continued embrace of the Stars and Bars?
Four black football players charged with a felony for an off-campus party
where there was alcohol and marijuana use, while two white sorority sisters
received misdemeanor wrist slaps for contributing to the delinquency of
minors at an on-campus party where two girls ended up in the hospital with
alcohol poisoning. The police and district attorney are correct; there is a
significant difference between the two cases . . . and it's as clear as
black and white.
