Once again, murder is the outcome and freedom the payoff. Justice is indeed many times blind.

Another Mexican immigrant has died a cruel death at the hands of another Caucasian in America, this time in Pottsville, Pennsylvania.  According to news reports Brandon Piekarsky and Derrick Donchak were acquitted of murdering Luis Ramirez, a Mexican immigrant whose path chanced to cross one night.

Both men were found guilty of lesser charges including assault and providing alcohol to minors.  Although, they threw a flurry of racial slurs at Ramirez, neither was found guilty of racial intimidation by the Schuylkill County Judge.

The article at CNN  did not bother to ascertain the age of this Mexican immigrant or include any details but was certain to depict the culprits as innocent teens, with one having played football in high school once upon a time.  It is any wonder that these youths were not simply branded heroes for ridding this country of one more Mexican immigrant.  At a time when President Obama preaches change, some things never change.  The question of justice goes unheard once again.
