Where's the outrage? (129 hits)

I've read this story twice, and from the same source... it's a news outlet called One News Now, and I am simply astounded there's absolutely NO mainstream press coverage of this story. What story? The adoption and abuse of 5 year old African American boy by a professor at Duke University... Read it for yourself http://www.onenewsnow.com/Perspectives/Def...

I'm inclined to agree with the author of this blog, where is the outrage? Where are the reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? Where's the director of the Local Chapter of NAACP? Where's the complaint that should be filed at the department of children and families? What happened to the great proclamation of denouncing racism after the shameful events surrounding the Duke rugby team party?
Where's the police report? This guy was caught on THE INTERNET abusing a child and offering him out for s*x! (last time I checked, that kind of stuff usually gets the Feds involved...)
And...
If the recent hate crimes legislation passed, this guy will get a free pass! Why? Because, the recent hate crimes legislation made behaviour labeled deviant by the American Psychological Association activities covered by law!

There were over thirty deviant behaviours listed in that bill, known as the Matthew Shepard act, and included in those behaviours is pedophilia, necrophilia, and a few others that are too disgusting to mention. Why? Simple, our elected officials were too cowardly to come out and say this bill was to give protected status to gay people and stifle the voices of social and political conservatives... don't believe me?
Here's what a prominent activist had to say about the legislation.

Maybe I'm blowing this out of proportion, maybe it's ok to abuse a black child if you're gay, white and a professor at Duke...
maybe I'm wrong....

r. e. Please trust me, there is rage over this as it is over many others just like this. I can say this because it is happening right here...but maybe this can give you a little comfort...

Any law that is not enforced is not worth the paper that the HATE CRIME law is written on!!!!!!!!!!

As long as each legal system is allowed to continue to enforce hate crimes or any other crime as they see it on a subjective level(in racist cities and towns)this will continue to be the norm... and because we alway start at the grass roots(Black community activist level)then work ourselves up, it always takes time or riots(in many cases to get those like the NAACP, ACLU,etc.) to get these back into the level of our Supreme court for redefining it and making it a Federal law that has more bite. It has always been this way for us to get justice and it will not end with president Obama no more than it ended with Dr. King.

This blog of yours is grass roots activism...keep it coming. O.K because each journey begins with one step(smile)In our case it is a jorney to EQUAL JUSTICE AS " BIA"...
