Actually the topic is 13 year old brutally beaten by three 15 year olds on school bus.
There is no mention of skin color until Rubber Wang makes a BTW note, in which I think he said he spent like 12 hours or something sifting through news articles and different websites before he was able to establish skin color, and make it known that this was indeed a race issue for him.
For you, Rubber and others- there's no one doubting that this is about race, but for some it's only about bad or negligent/non parenting.
Maybe that little 13 year old was a punk who deserved to get his little ass kicked. Maybe that's why the bus driver didn't do anything to stop it.
Maybe he was innocent, and guilty of no wrong doing in the situation, we don't know.
Snitches have been getting beat down since the beginning of man.
Others will blame soft laws that only give a slap on the wrist for unacceptable behaviors, Or greed feeding laws that prevent someone (the bus driver) from stepping in.
Some will make this about corrupt policy makers, such as Obama, Holder, Sharpton, Oprah, etc.
Some will understand that there is some hope for all of these kids, and that they may still hold some value in life.
Others won't understand, and have already sentenced them to an existence that only serves to poison our dumps, as our garbage does.
