Guess what also isn't typical? The treatment of this kid by police prosecutors in the US. The person he replied to sees one isolated incident in Texas, easily the most ass-backwards state in terms of morals and common sense, and assumes it's the case for the entire country of 310 million people.


I find that amusing, considering Austin TX is typically considered to be one of the most progressive regions in the state.

This isn't about Texas, or even Austin. It's about a corrupt police investigation and prosecution.

Um, yeah, let's judge the entire state of Texas based on one county's prosecutors. Sheesh.
