Otter, "La Raza" (I assume you are talking about the student organization that raised the Mexican flag, El Centro La Raza) didn't sue Mr. Lynch. They reported to police that someone stole their flag and destroyed it. The DA prosecuted him for the offense. (That's prosecutorial discretion for ya!) Why do you deem the reporting of a crime wrong?

I can never remember which is better . . . safe? . . . or sorry?
