QOTD
From Bob Herbert's NYT column:No one is too young. I traveled to Avon Park, Fla., a couple of years ago to write about the arrest of a black 6-year-old named Desre’e Watson. She threw a tantrum in her kindergarten class. The police were called, and the terrified child was arrested, handcuffed (the handcuffs were too large to fit her wrists, so she was cuffed on her upper arms) and driven off to headquarters.
When I asked the police chief about the incident, he said: “Do you think this is the first 6-year-old we’ve arrested?”
