Outrageous biased “Justice”. Misdemeanor offense for obvious “Knockout Game Hate Crime”??? Must be BLIND.

Interesting how the seriousness of the crime changes with the skin color. If these were white perpertrators knocking out black women, they would be put into the same category as KKK and charged with hate crimes. But because they are blacks, these were just misdeminor charges.
This is a clear case of racism, masquerading as civil rights justice.
