Looks like they are trying this recruiting method already. I was watching a show where they basically put non-serious offenders who choose it into a 'boot camp' wing of the prison in exchange for seeing out their regular sentence as normal. It looks more like an army proving ground than anything else.
Yes, they are capitalizing on the media coverage on the death of a black kid as a vehicle to try to get their message across. The memory of a dead child is being used to sell a race baiting cause. It's no different than if that memory of the dead child was used to sell Skittles or Iced Tea or Coca-Cola or Disneyworld: that's the exploitation part.
No, I have never voted Republican once in my life... at all.
But they are seemingly (at the moment) better than Democrats like Swag, those who are peeter puffers for the destruction of freedom of speech along with the rest of the Constitution.
