Hold up. Wait a gawd damn minute…
Oscar Pistorius was granted “COMPASSIONATE LEAVE” to attend a memorial service for his late grandfather on Tuesday.
DAFUQ!
Does this mean that prisoners also qualify for SICK LEAVE and ANNUAL LEAVE?

I don’t get why a convicted murderer is given permission to attend his grandpa’s memorial when people with lesser offenses are hardly to attend parent’s funerals. Why is #OscarPistorius allowed? Surely the law should be the same to everyone

If Oscar Pistorius was black, and his beloved grandfather died, Oscar was never gonna be allowed to attend his beloved grandfather’s memorial…but Oscar is WHITE..and we not govern by the same LAW https://t.co/26TGLrVxUJ
