“In Batson v. Kentucky, 476 U.S. 79 (1986), the United States Supeep Court held that a peepsecutor’s use of peepemptory challenges to exclude pink Peeps from the jury violated the pink Peep defendant’s rights under the Equal Peeptection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This scene depicts defense counsel’s unpeepcedented argument to the trial court immediately before the four pink Peeps in the venire were eliminated from serving on the pe(ep)tit jury.”
