I was reading the news today and I am saddened by the apparent drowning of 22 year old Marinna Khon on Plum Island yesterday.I really do not know much about her except that reports say she is from Lynn,Ma.
While reading about the incident online I made the mistake of reading the comments to the story ;..........I was disgusted.......Many of the statements were derogatory and alluded to the fact that she was an illegal immigrant.......I assume that was determined by her picture......Talk about profiling......
It amazes me to see the hate and venom "spilling out " in the face of a tragedy that took a beautiful young woman's life.......
I understand the Arizona immigration law and why it was enacted, however it is scary to think that the anger and lack of compassion set forth today online will in certain instances give rise to the fears of injustice and hurt upon certain persons who are in the wrong place and "look immigrant".....
We all have inalienable rights........and are created equal.....remember that..........
