Career Criminal Learns His White Privilege Extends to Kicking Black Toddlers and Bonding Out....

.....(for Free) Hours Later

So taking all of that into account, after assaulting a 1-year-old child and hurling racist slurs, this happens:

A Wichita police report says the incident was classified as a case of “battery” and “resist” where the man was suspected of using alcohol. A “personal weapon,” which would include a boot, was involved, the report said.

Riff was arrested and booked into the Sedgwick County jail on Sunday on suspicion of ethnic intimidation, battery and resisting police, an arrest report says.

Hours later, around 3:30 p.m., Riff was released from jail on his own recognizance, meaning he was released without making a payment. If he doesn’t show up to future court appearances, he will have to pay $3,500. Riff does not have any special bond conditions, sheriff’s Lt. Tim Myers said.

What the fuck?

In what realm of reality does this even begin to make any damn sense?

Oh that’s right. It doesn’t.

“I don’t understand,” said Yolanda Frierson, grandmother of 1-year-old Jhavii Fry who is entirely justified in her disbelief. “He’s out just hours after he attacked a baby.”

And got off virtually scot-free despite a history of burglary, larceny, DUIs, domestic battery, possession of marijuana, public drunkenness, felony possession of methamphetamine, possession of paraphernalia, obstruction, and a bunch of other absurd shit.

Oh, and again he’s currently on probation.

So like I said, White Privilege is definitely a superpower. Because if anybody’s ass should be in prison, it’s this guy.

Just imagine what would have happened if it was the other way round?
