Racism-a-Go-Go

Check out this video of the St. Tammany Parish sheriff going on a rant about the “trash” coming in to St. Tammany from NOLA.

First he says, “If you’re gonna walk the streets of St. Tammany Parish with dreadlocks and ‘Chee Wee’ hairstyles, then you can expect to be getting a visit from a sheriff’s deputy,” and then he goes off on defense attorneys who “make a good living” getting “trash” off, saying that won’t happen in St. Tammany Parish, and the defense attorneys ought to be run out of town, too.

What a charming idea. Arrest people and try them without a defense in front of juries who apparently need no more evidence of guilt than suspicious hairstyles.

Yep. Racism is a thing of the past in modern America.
