• Judge Throws Out Claim of 'Racist' Brutality on Fellow (Black Hispanic) Officer
  MIAMI (AP) - A well-traveled lawsuit claiming a racist police officer purposely ran over a plainclothes detective with his own department has been dismissed by a federal judge after once producing a $5.7 million jury award. U.S. District Judge James Lawrence King threw out the suit against Miami-Dade County. He noted "compelling evidence" against Sgt. William Alsbury but said the county couldn't anticipate racially motivated intent when Alsbury used his patrol car to run down Detective Michael Perez. "While it might be unwise policy to permit racists to serve as county officers, (Perez) has not presented evidence that a 'plainly obvious consequence' of employing Alsbury would be the intentional, unlawful use of force against African-Americans." Perez, who is black, was not in uniform when he was chasing a Radio Shack robbery suspect on foot in 1995. Alsbury, who said he thought Perez was a suspect, claimed he hit the detective when he lost control of his car on wet grass.

• Whites File Bias Suit Against Black College
  SALISBURY, N.C. — Five white professors in Salisbury, N.C., have filed a lawsuit against Livingstone College, claiming the private college discriminated against them because of the color of their skin.
  "Thirty years ago if you would have said, 'I'm white and I'm being discriminated against by blacks,' people would have laughed at you," said Arthur Steinberg, Ph.D., who taught history at Livingstone until his termination in May 2000. He and the other plaintiffs claim white professors were routinely denied promotion and tenure at Livingstone because of the color of their skin.
  Steinberg said he was routinely subjected to racist remarks from his black colleagues and even had his car vandalized. The five professors are seeking damages totaling roughly $1 million dollars.

 * There are some wrongs that cannot be paid for in dollars.
    They must either be paid in blood or not at all. 
    Naturally, in our effeminate country, people love the lawsuit
    as much as they love the lottery and the slot machine, and
    they abhor and fear the idea of real justice. Money has
    become the ultimate corrupter of Americans, more
    powerful than sex or drugs. - Charley Reese Commentary

Are you a victim of reverse discrimination*?
