Justice, better late than never

"Let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream." –From MLK’s speech delivered Apr 3, 1968 in the Mason Temple in Memphis. He was assassinated the following day.

Good news- Today Edgar Ray Klein received justice from a mighty stream that has been dammed up for decades now. I am happy that today there is justice for this man, this man who carried such evil in his heart, such hatred for other humans, and such a feeling of superiority that he felt compelled to murder those who sought justice. But we have such a long way to go. It is not only Philadelphia, Mississippi that struggles with racism but the whole world. Perhaps sentencing this mean old man to 60 years in prison is a start in putting the world on a track to more justice for us all. But why did it take so damn long?
