I'm sorry, Jon.
So an email from my public defender friend (I wish I could post it, but I don't have her permission yet to share in its entirety. It's heartbreaking*) lead me to go read a local columnist's columns from the past six months or so (go to [link] , use bugmenot.com if it asks for an id/pass- also, the column that initiated it is at the top). And now I'm all depressed and impressed. There have been letters to the editor saying he's tilting at windmills, but god. He's doing SOMETHING.
* upon getting an unusually long sentence for burglaries, the mother of the guy comforted everyone else in the family with "he's alive, baby, he's alive. He won't be out on these streets with all these killings. He's gonna live. We should have never left New Orleans. Katrina would have been better than this."
Just wanted to share.
