Nixzmary trial ends on a sour note

mar%2018_08.gif

A bittersweet end to the Nixzmary Brown saga. With the mountain of evidence on its side and even step-dad Cesar Rodriguez admitting abuse, prosecutors couldn't deliver a murder conviction. However, the jury stays on the hook as slightly more incompetent - somehow not believing that a man capable of such monstrosities, despite all the brutality exposed, would be capable of murder.

Add being let down by the courts to the list of people Nixzmary was done wrong by.

Napavine Billboard. What do you think?

billboard2.jpg

An interesting story/video is posted on CNN today about a billboard, shown above, in Napavine, Washington. It’s stirring up some controversy for obvious reasons. The billboard is on private property so it’s not “paid” media but it is viewable from a local highway.

That said, do you think it's racist (& should be removed) or that it’s free speech?
