Not interested in "sending a message." Time for folks to get over it and get on with their lives. We live in the best country in the world and there is no need to destroy that just because a few disgruntled folks feel slighted. There are no excuses today. If you commit a crime, regardless of color, you reap the consequences no matter how unfortunate. If you want fair, then don't break the "fair" law. I believe the the expiration date of social injustice has come and gone. Last year, we had a record in this country for employment of ALL colors and genders. No more excuses. The only persons slighted are the anarchists, and they are having the time of their lives right now. Lets get this over with so that we can put this country back on track.
