In J's social welfare training meeting, they brought up that rape and sexual battery cannot be tied to class. But the partners of affluent stock brockers have the luxury of calling in sick for a week while the bruises heal, while those women who have to show up to work to keep their jobs are the ones who get their bruises noticed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074861.post-1131634168074259612005-11-10T09:49:00.000-05:002005-11-10T09:49:00.000-05:00This map presupposes a perfect court system, somet...This map presupposes a perfect court system, something we frankly don't have. We must keep in mind rich white men are far more likely to draw the "get out of jail free" card than any poor urban youth.

On one hand, it freaked me out that there were sex offenders in my neighborhood (not according to your link, by the way. I don't remember where I saw it before, but it seems that your link is lacking info on the Cambridge area. Anyway.) but also felt that it was a bit much to show their pictures and addresses. Perhaps the dots on the map should be enough to remind people that there are people who commit these crimes everywhere, that we should always be cautious, but not provide us with such detailed information about the particular offenses so as to let the people have a second chance.firstratekatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08765755291135745325noreply@blogger.com
