    An America based on prison rules

    A gang of Latinos targets and rapes an unpopular white girl, and liberals should feel warm and fuzzy that decades of multiculturalism and massive Third World immigration have finally had an effect. A crowd hoots and cheers (prison rules!) while the weak are victimized. This is truly Ted Kennedy and Obama's America.

    Speaking of prison rules:

    "If these young men are found guilty of rape, they will find out, the "hard" way, the true horror of rape. My advice to them would be, "don't drop the soap."" - RoRo13

    You'd think so, but what really happens is that predators in the real world remain predators in prison. Short eyes, of course, being a significant exception.
