Arizona Republic on New Black Panther dismissal

Arizona's largest newspaper opines on Sunday:

"But where law in the United States is concerned, policies that prop up group victimization as a reason to apply laws differently simply invite contempt for the law itself. . . .

But, then, we learned that unequal application of the law wasn't something unique to this case. We learned it is the accepted if unwritten policy of the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department that violations of voting rights are never pursued against minority defendants. And, suddenly, all the potatoes got really, really big."
