Because I'm still trying to wrap my mind around how to express how horrified and saddened I am about this, I'll just say take a look at Adrianne Byrd's blog for news coverage on the cruel and inhumane treatment a young black woman in West Virginia had to endure in our country in the 21st century... I'm so disgusted and angry that I can't even blog about it yet.
