Did Dharun Ravi get such a short sentence because of Gays who came out against harsh punishment ?

i wonder if Ravi will appreciate what happened. whether he is truly sorry for what he did to Tyler. after everything he did in picking on someone for being Gay. others who are Gay came to his defense .

will his parents get this ? from listening to his mother i'm not sure.

if he is sorry he should meet with these people who came out to support him, he should maybe write an article , he can do many things to show he is sorry.

... the sentence was appropriate or too light. Ravi is only sorry he got caught. He showed no remorse. I hope they appeal and tack some years onto that sentence. Not good America, we are slipping.
