The slayings of Reagan Tokes and Alianna DeFreeze had much in common.
Both were abducted, raped and killed in Ohio in 2017. Tokes was a 21-year-old college student, DeFreeze a 14-year-old seventh grader. Both their killers, previously convicted sex offenders, were subsequently found guilty.
Yet only one victim got a law with her name on it — Tokes, who was white.
That disparity in so-called namesake laws represents a national trend: White crime victims are much more likely to get crime bills named after them than black victims. Full Article
At the Harvest music festival in Las Vegas a shooter opened fire and killed 58 people. Not one has had a law named after them. Seems to be a huge disparity here. There are so many sex offense laws that people charged with a non-contact offense suffer a life of total humiliation and isolation, but I can think of only one law for a shooting victim and that is after a big named politician. So perhaps the real discrimination here is against a certain category of people. It seems to me that any, every, and all offenses even remotely related to human sexuality are lumped together in the same category. Maybe that is where the true prejudice in all this lies.
It is not unknown that the USA was not initially inhabited by white people. I am one of them and I am sickened by history. This land was occupied way before white people landed here.
Hhahahahahahahah…
That is to funny. It’s not about safety or anything it’s about having a law named after you. I love the petty ignorance/stupidity.
