This guy keeps excusing actions minorities take without wanting to hold them accountable.
I quoted where he said the minority who did this is a rapist who's going to jail. I didn't see him disagree with him going to jail for being a minority. The only conclusion is he not excusing the man for his action of rape and supports him being held accountable for it.
How much more accountable should he want the former Vandy player to be?

Accountable to enhanced sentencing?
Isn't that the discussion?
You proffer that its good prosecuting because the DA:
- Removed media attention
- Limited avenues of appeal
- More easily secured a convention
Isn't it reasonable for people to disagree about that? More specifically, even if its good prosecuting by some measure of: the DAs record, the saving of state money, or the increased chance the accused would serve some time; can't someone proffer that its not good because of the unequal application of a hate crime statute? Or as one person pointed out the possible futility of hate crime laws in general?
