Light Sentence

Ed, I cannot understand why and how former Philadelphia Mayor Street’s brother, Milton Street, was charged with tax evasion and is going to pay restitution and go to a country jail for a few months. Back in the 1930s, gangster Al Capone was arrested for the same crime, tax evasion, and went to jail for years. I guess the law has changed and for the worst. It’s still politics, power, and today, race more than ever.

Do you really think Street is a criminal of the caliber of Al Capone? You’re making a giant stretch with the comparison, and whatever point you think you’re making about race is lost. —Ed. Note
