Thanks for sharing that.When I was a senior in High School at Tom C. Clark in San Antonio, I was arrested for an altercation I had with another student. I was tried with a terroristic threat charge. A felony. I was on the receiving end of many racist remarks from some black students and had enough. I told one of them and I quote, "If you have a problem with me being white, then meet me after school and I'll help you with your problem." That was enough for me to be arrested that day. In the end the lack of evidence and the fact that I did not make a threat, still landed me a disorderly conduct charge class C misdemeanor.
When I see these remarks everywhere about people are going to kill this person or that person with the internet as evidence I am shocked that there are not more cases like this. I was arrested on here say 'even though yes I said it' and still got a charge. Not what they were gunning for, but a charge none the less.
Putting an 18 year old high school student in Bexar County Jail for 9 days was quite traumatic. On top of that, I was not allowed to graduate with everyone else. I had to get my diploma in alternative school. As for the racist remarks made by the other students. Nothing happen to them. They walked and seemed to be praised actually for standing up to me. I had a excellent background in school. No fights, no drugs, no nothing. These other students had been in and out of fights and juvenile courts for many offenses, yet they were almost rewarded for taking me down.
