Ow. That's a picture my American eyes didn't want to be faced with.
Knowing something happens, and seeing it... two completely different things.
Yeah, it really brings it home. And, for the record, the white kid is British, so it isn't just an American thing; it's a Western civilization thing.
And I don't see any easy answers to the problem, so my cynicism is threatening to kick in and say it won't ever be solved. I fight it, but my cynicism is well-developed and has an arsenal of ironic, emotionally detached weapons.
