    I also was thinking about the recent Tase Early, Tase Often mentality in this country that was discussed in an article I read recently. The young people who were just using their Citizen’s Riight to non-violently demonstrate about the waste facility that was discussed in the video would they likely get tased in today’s world?

    In fact, a more truthful term would be Environmental Classism. That is because there are currently no laws that only apply to black people, besides white people have been found to have the same problems. For example, the love canal incident took place in a poor white community. EJ activists always allude that environmental inequity stems from socio economic status, yet they continue to play racial politics by defining the problem as one of race instead of economy.
