By FreidaPeople Stat posting on Raymond Santana’s Facebook Page:
Lynn, with all due respect, the tragedy is these boys got railroaded at every step of the way and the media was happy to support their presumption of guilt based on their skin color. The tragedy is that even to this day, people insist on smearing their character as men. The tragedy is that even when Black and brown people are completely innocent, there is a presumption of guilt.
The tragedy is that most of the people in this world still won’t believe the lesson this whole thing teaches us. Crime is not based on skin color and cops are not here to protect or serve children of color from poor communities. I applaud the men I have come to know a bit. In spite of all the harm our racist system inflicted on these kids, they became pillars of society and great role models. The system took their youth, but never their integrity. Can’t wait until all the files are unsealed.
Justice for the Central Park Five. Justice for all.
FreidaPeople Stat posts regularly on Facebook and I and many, many others consider her opinions pretty much Gospel.

From Mike Schlicht, NYHWA Co-Coordinator:
The State of Tennessee has passed the first bill to address workplace bullying but for those of us in New York State familiar with the Workplace Violence Prevention Law, policies mean little even if you are a public employee which this law only pertains to. As some of us have found out the hard way, the NYS Workplace Violence Prevention Law, if, and when it is enforced by a public employer, can and is used to target people in abusive work environments to react to intentional and malicious acts of workplace bullying. [That is, targets of abuse are baited by abusers and/or their flunkies].
