It's funny how this never gets brought up as far as non rich-white-person crime.
Like hey, this guy robbed a liquor store, but for the good of the community I think we should set him free. See? Doesn't work. But for someone reason when it's a much more dangerous type of criminal who's part of the "tribe," everyone starts nodding their heads and saying yeah, the good of the community, that makes perfect logical sense now that you put it that way.
