Anytime an innocent is convicted, it is a travesty. We all hope justice prevails. But why do I get the impression Mista Pitts' commentary hints beyond this one person's innocence? Why do I feel his meaning goes to how corrupt police are and how certain people are still continually wrongly prosecuted persecuted and picked on? THis is a little off topic, but the "out of control" P.C. pelosi (bs) is getting real old. Just yesterday, a Muslim extremeist killed and injured several of this countries finest at Ft Hood. CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, and I'm sure Pitts are all going out of their "news" way not to mention the man as MUSLIM. Tying this to the Pitts commentary, bad things happen in these high crime inner city areas. Bad things are happening in the "peaceful" religion of Islam. And the people like Pitts and local so-called leaders of the community and faith don't do s--- to help the situation. Instead, they cry "racism, unfairness, discrimination and so on." How about a little personal, community and faith responsibility?
