Pequeno Goes Free After Killing Two UM Students

During 2013, as Milady Pequeno's Porsche hit two University of Miami students, she continued driving on her merry way. Her conscience or did not tell her that she needed to stop immediately to ascertain the condition of these young people. Both graduate students from China died.  Now, the Miami-Dade District court ruled that Pequeno can go free with a slap on the wrist punishment of paying only a paltry fine. So, she can go home and live a wonderful life while the loved ones of the students continue to mourn their loss. This case  is a prime example of  the inequality that continues to exist in the flawed justice system that caters to the wealthy. The parents of both students could not even afford to return to the United States for the court proceedings or aid in anyway to see that justice was served for the deaths. Certainly, if the victims' family were U.S. residents and in a financial position to pursue this crime to its fullest, Pequeno would not have been so lucky today. But under the circumstances of this case, guess it's good to be rich in Miami Dade County!! 

Hamas Fires Rockets to Nowhere

Palestine's land concerns are certainly understandable. Israel's continued action of building structures on Palestinian land is despicable and unjust.  Further, depriving the Gaza residents of basic necessities is deplorable and a violation of human rights. Yet, as rockets continue to be fired into Israel's land, the Israelis have reported no casualties while Palestinian death toll from Israel's retaliatory attacks has been steadily increasing.  Obviously, firing rockets, however far they may go, is definitely not working as retaliatory actions are causing  greater harm to the Palestinians. We get it - militants are fighting for a cause. However, their own brothers and sisters are feeling the pain of their judgement in making a bad situation worse.
