Говореше се по-горе в темата кои хора облагодетелства системата. Ето кои. Пол, цвят, сексуалност и всичките други простотии от identity politics нямат значение. Основната разлика между хората, имаща отношение към това как ще се отнесе с тях системата, е по богатство и влияние."On financial costs, this $10,000 doesn't even come close to what the city spent in resources to actually look over the camera, gather all the data, go over all the information that actually brought the indictment by the grand jury on many, many multiple different charges," Emanuel said.
"As a person who was in the House of Representatives when we tried to pass the Shepard legislation that dealt with hate crimes ... to then use those very laws and the principles and values behind the (Matthew Shepard And James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009) to self-promote your career is a cost that comes to all the individuals: gay men and women who will come forward and one day say they were victim of a hate crime who will now be doubted, people of faith -- Muslim or any other religious faith -- who will be a victim of hate crimes, people also of all walks of life and backgrounds, race, ethnicities, sexual orientation, now this casts a shadow of whether they're telling the truth, and he did this all in the name of self-promotion," the mayor said.
This is a whitewash of justice. A grand jury could not have been clearer.
Even after this whitewash, (there's) still no sense of ownership of what he's done," Emanuel said. "He says that, in fact, that he is the wronged in this case. This is an unbelievable not just whitewash of justice; this is a person now who's been let off scot-free with no sense of accountability of the moral and ethical wrong of his actions. From top to bottom, not only besmirching the name of the city, but then I cannot stress that in a time when you have people bringing a moral equivalency in Virginia between bigots and those fighting bigotry, that you have a person using hate crime laws that are on the books to protect people that are minorities from violence, to then turn around and use those laws to advance your career and your financial reward, is there no decency in this man?"
He added, "Now you have an individual who took those laws, turned them inside out, upside down, for only one thing: himself. And that, in my view, is an insult and an offense to every one of us who collectively upholds those laws because they reflect who we are as a city and -- because of the hate crime legislation, which is federal -- who we are as a country."
"You cannot have, because of a person's position, one set of rules apply to them and another set of rules apply to everybody else. In another way, you are seeing this play out in the universities, where people pay extra to get their kids a special position in universities. Now, you have a person, because of their position and background, who's getting treated in a way that nobody else would ever ... get close to this type of treatment," the mayor said.
Emanuel said later, "This is without a doubt a whitewash of justice and sends a clear message that if you're in a position of influence and power you'll be treated one way. Other people will be treated another way. There is no accountability then in the system. It is wrong, full stop."
