That rush of relief I just felt is really wrong. It shouldn't be that way. Imagine being one of the

people that just had the equal sinking feeling. Another brick in their supremacy wall gone! At least we got that. This time.

1. Why is it wrong?

For those who have a sinking feeling about their racism being a failing program, fuck those assholes. They are the reason we can't have peace in this world so fuck them and their feelings.

2. I should be clearer about that. Wrong that I thought all hell might break out over it if

he got off light. It should have never been in doubt.

4. I wasn't sure until I heard it on the

livestream but I was hoping it would exactly as it turned out. I am relieved and hopeful that there will be a cascade of more just verdicts as we go forward.

I was bracing for a not guilty nightmare but hoping for what we got. My sense of disdain for the racist class has always been this intense and always will after over half a century of dealing with being discriminated against.

3. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

As I noted in another thread, justice was served in a case where it was never clear that that would be the case, and in a case similar to many in which justice wasn't served.

It's a relief-worthy moment and an important one.
