    Editorial Agenda II

    The editors seem to have made up their minds already. Take note that only the letters that say the boys are guilty get red stars, and the letters that say they are innocent don't get stars.

    This is a left leaning site, so I expect the editorial agenda to be liberal. But, where does "innocent until proven guilty" fall in the liberal/conservative divide?

    Have we regressed back to the pre-civil rights notion that skin color and gender are determining factors in guilt?
