It was especially refreshing to read after having been lectured by Luke who insists (how would he know??) that the outrage had simply been manufactured by the media whereas nothing too unusual happened. And that the police chief had been fired "because he did not immediately push for a sharp racial profiling in the official police report." Look, over 100 women filed reports of being sexually assaulted (were they lying?) in a small area during a short time period. If the police chief left in shame because his department totally failed to protect women in such a case, then I'd be the last to object. - Jeff _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
