Rubén Salazar was renowned for his hard-hitting journalism about the Mexican-American community. While reporting on 1970’s National Chicano Moratorium Against the Vietnam War, he was killed when a Los Angeles sheriff’s deputy launched a tear gas projectile into the crowd and struck him in the head.

In 2019 Robert Kraft paid to sexually assault two sex trafficked victims. He paid off the justice system to get his charges dismissed. His victims couldn’t afford attorneys and were convicted. That’s what our two-tiered justice system is intended to do. Protect the rich, punish their victims.
