    Shockingly, particularly since the evidence against Borden was overwhelming, the judge agreed to only require Borden to serve 4 of his 20 year sentence pending good behavior. If he has incidents of bad behavior, he will have to serve all 20.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1082405373120823296 …

    BREAKING: Dan Borden, the first bigot that we identified in the Charlottesville assault of DeAndre Harris was just sentenced to 20 years in prison. On the stand his unapologetically racist mother literally said “Shaun King is fake news.” Her son plead guilty & is on camera. pic.twitter.com/vSwybNThX2

        Is #incarceration the best way to rehabilitate #hatred #bigotry #racism ? Picking sides on the inside doesn’t usually bring out the kindness & diversity of peaceful existence #justice & the system #leadership must tackle the question of what to do with the immorality of humanity

        If you work in corrections, you’ll understand exactly what I’m asking - 20 years inside will probably create even more #hatred & #bigotry. I’m calling for solutions. If you want horrendous racists to change, 20 years in prison won’t fix the problem. What will, is my question

        Rehab would be great if he were reintroduced into a society that didn’t reinforce his bigotry in the first place. No disrespect, but that’s why that particular point didn’t go anywhere.

        Yes - do what can we do in society to not reinforce bigotry hatred & racism? How can we reinforce love equality respect integrity in & through the justice system for criminals that aren’t gettin any better or showing remorse?

        That’s a great question, and there is a very clear answer on the legal side of things. We can begin by making sure that criminals don’t see lessened sentences for “good behavior” in a very controlled environment after attacking someone because of their race.

        Why do I get the feeling his demonstrated behavior won't count as 'bad', unless he gets caught tooo obviously?

        And sadly, he will probably be embraced by white nationalists who exist in the prison system , eneabled by a system that looks the other way. #RadicalizationBootcamp

        "The court also heard testimony from the defendant's mother and father: Rick Borden spent his time on the witness stand ranting about activists and proclaiming his son's innocence. Borden's mother said divorce, learning issues, and Daniel with his father were all factors." What?
