I don’t expect there is any insidious plot behind it, just a dumb kid with nothing better to do on a day off from school.

So instead of chasing bank robbers, taypayer robbers or kidnappers, they are chasing what will probably turn out to be some pimply-faced kid who committed what in reality should probably be a misdemeanor offense.

I absolutely abhor racism. But that’s no reason to federalize a relatively low-level crime.

I’m sure most federal agents would prefer chasing higher-profile criminals who pose much more of a threat to society, too.
