What if one of those so called victims(also an instigator to the noose hanging, the store fight, the party fight...etc and so on) decided that somewhere in the future he wanted to rob a bank or...GASP....KILL ANOTHER WHITE PERSON...what do we do then Kevin....what do we do....
First off, it's debatable whether or not hanging a noose out the back of your truck is even a crime.

Second, the recidivism rate for violent felons is pretty high. Check the stats in any state. They'll bear out the factual accuracy of that statement. The recidivism rate in every state I've ever seen is far above 50% -- usually over 60%. That's a much better than 1:6 chance. The likelihood that one of those 6 commits another felony is about as close to a statistical certainty as you can get.

Right now....deal with the facts on hand...the boy did not die...the boy went to a Ring Dance later....
I'll repeat also.

1) He was damned lucky not to be dead after being kicked in the head multiple times while unconscious. He was, however, blind for three weeks due to the swelling in one eye. Also, he still has very painful headaches.

2) He did attend the ring ceremony (it's not a dance as far as I have read), however, he had to leave early due to the pain.

he and his associates decided to retaliate....ALL PARTIES ARE GUILTY....let me repeat that so the slow witted and menatlly challenged can catch on for the 3rd and final time that I say this...
What is he guilty of? Saying something offensive? Sorry, that does not merit the sort of violent attack that occurred.

Quote:
ALL PARTIES ON BOTH SIDES ARE GUILTY
Of something, however, only parties on one side of the conflict blindsided a kid and then kicked him in the head while unconscious. The other assault was the result of one of these "Jena 6" who was trespassing at a private party where he was clearly not welcome.

PUNISH ALL PARTIES EQUALLY AND FAIRLY.
But the crimes aren't the same.

There is no one here whose hands are clean.
That much I can agree with. As I understand it, the individual accused of using excessive force to remove the trespassing Mr. Bailey from the private party stands accused of some sort of misdemeanor assault and battery. The fact patterns are very different, so the crimes charged are also going to be different.
