First off, Arapio did face consequences for his actions.  He was, after all, found guilty in both a civil action and the criminal one. Your statement, therefore, is unsurprisingly incorrect yet again, but at least you educated yourself enough to know a trial for a petty criminal offense did, in fact, take place. Filing an appeal is not the same as having it granted and heard, but I wouldn't expect you to understand that quite yet.  And yes, just like MLK and others who chose disobedience of the laws and the courts in pursuit of what was right, there are consequences for that disobedience. Now, let us address whether or not pardoning this petty offense by Arapio merits the apoplectic response evidenced by the so-called progressives in our society.
