I wondered what had happened to this case - one more reason why the USA is not on my immediate list of places I want to go on holiday to. Despite the fact we used to holiday there pretty much annually I have to say I have fallen out of any love I had with the place

It's pretty frightening how particularly black or mixed race people can be treated by the law in the US, especially if you are to them at least initially a "nobody'.

But then even Venus was publicly called out as having jumped a red light and being at fault for the crash in which a passenger in the car which hit hers died. They err then decided to study the available CV. Probably much stinks generally.

It would be naive to suggest all is perfect in the UK, but in comparison ...

And there is much about my visits to the US I have really liked but that is essentially passing through and being well divorced from so much.
