What the fuck.
Four black lesbian women were convicted for SELF DEFENSE. Please read this. Its fucking absurd and I am completely outraged.
"The mere fact that any victim of a bigoted attack would be arrested, jailed and then convicted for self-defense is an outrage. But the length of prison time given further demonstrates the highly political nature of this case and just how racist, misogynistic, anti-gay, anti-youth and anti-worker the so-called US justice system truly is."
