Since When Did Setting a Child On Fire Become a Prank Gone Wrong?

Hammond,IN-Yesterday I went to a protest calling for justice and charges to be brought against 3 White Teenagers who set a 10 year old African American Boy on fire,with pressure from the family and the community the police department opened up an Investigation.But still no charges have been brought against the 3 teens who ages are 13,15 and 14.In news reports I read the teens took Young Joshua Judkins in the woods and doused him in rubbing alcohol and set fire young Joshua Judkins.The boys later turned them selves in and told police it was a prank that went wrong.

A prank that went wrong? since when did setting child on fire become a prank ? My answer to that is, that's how the Hammond,IN police department wants to see it Mind you Joshua Judkins is a Young Black African American Male and the 3 attackers are white teenagers it's the issues in the justice system here in Indiana where a young African American boy gets set on fire it's a prank that went wrong ,But lets flip the script if it was a young Caucasian and if it was 3 Black males who set him on fire ,those Black boys would be on locked up and on death row by now .

Yesterday was a turning point in Indiana as we march and chanted Racist Police must go as we walked in to the City Council meeting .

As we stood in the back waiting for our chance to speak and be heard our Mayor ducked out the door who was quoted in the news paper saying "This was an Unfortunate Incident".As one of the protesters got up and spoke on young Joshua we applaud and cheered him as he spoke the truth in his statement to the City Council broad members.

Another Protester spoke she cried as she said these boy should be charged with attemped murder for setting Joshua on fire it is a hate crime indeed.The crowd cheered and the Council Broad member told us to shut up and called the whole meeting off at that very moment,as we left we chanted "Racism Must Go" We stood in the Hall way of City Hall and clapped and chanted with our anger and frustrations over the fact of the Hammond,IN Justice system trying deny this young African American boy and his family Justice.

But we will not stand for it and next protest we will be out there in full force and ready to march.But this case as well as many others show how blacks are still the subject of abuse in the American Justice system,This will never be a Postracial America .Here's a link to Young Joshua Story .http://cbs2chicago.com/local/indiana.boy.burned.2.1045828.html
