re: "He is a Good Boy"- Levi Petitt's parents

What does keeping them on campus and being judges by their "peers" actually do? Make them feel shame? Embarrassment? Remorse? Guilt? Sure, it may do all of that as they see how the community reacts, but does that really fix what caused them to think their actions were okay in the first place. We are trying to push that racism is wrong by peer pressure. Just doesn't seem effective to me. I agree that this was despicable and they need to learn more about life, but you can't just pressure people into believing something. I don't have the answer or anything, but I don't think our current "lock them in stocks in the town square" mentality is helpful.
