Emmit Till and Amadu Dialo? I can't even believe you're bringing these up. They couldn't possibly be less relevant to the guilt or innocence of the "Jena 6."
It's obvious you've seen a lot of bad stuff. I think you're projecting a lot of that here. I can't blame you for that. That doesn't mean that you're right for doing it though.

So now, it is a major difference in some small red neck town, not a city, in La. when there were 3 nooses hanging from the so called white tree which has been cut down, and the brutal beating of and individual who is of a different color! 
BS. An attack on an individual is still assault. I am sure they did not arrest these young boys out of the blue.
I do not need a history lesson of how the black person was degraded when none of us were born. How they were sold by blacks to usualy Dutch slave traders and brought to the USA to toil in Da Cotton Fields.
Many of you promagate the hatered that is still out in our society.
Thanks a lot!

I just want you to know that this statement made my day. The post couldn't have been ended in a more perfect way. 
Yes, I wore black today. If the rally had been tomorrow, I would've been in DC (no class, no work) but, since it was today, I had to be there in spirit.
ETA: Did anyone else know that there was a movement today calling for people to wear green(to symbolize growth away from hate and towards justice)?  I just saw it on facebook a minute ago.

So my last question wasn’t received very well and to be honest I thought it was a valid question but I actually have another question and I really think it’s valid so please don’t pick it apart.
Has there been any collective effort by the parties involved to raise money to rebuild the section of the high school that was burnt down?

kevlar...my apologies if that was how it came off.....but the question is relevant and we should have taken more time to discuss

but....what I was trying to say which is the whole point to what this situation is all about is simply this....if you are going to punish someone of a heinous crime, make it fair...and that is the problem when race has been added to the mix, this is why people are in Jena now...not so much that Mychael Bell is innocent....he isn't... but the punishment is way too excessive...in the eyes of the 40000+ that went and those of us all around the country who rallied yesterday....same thing with Glenarlow Wilson in Georgia...in jail for something that in most places would at worst be a misdemeanor and something that some parents should have sat down and discussed...some hateful thug of an attorney decided to dig up an old law and crucify a young man for being a teenager...(anybody here had sex as teen think they should be doing 20 years right now?....don't answer!!! LOL...messed up part is all he got was a bj and not even full intercourse...if they had FULL intercourse he wouldnt BE IN JAIL!!!) his punishment was too severe....now....out of all this (and let me make sure this is relevant enough to this thread so that way Kevin won't say something inane like"that's irrelevant") here is something else we all need to keep an eye on...
The Logan 6.....the 6 people involved in raping, beating, and kidnapping this one girl for a week and justify thier holding her by using racial slurs, have about 109 nice lil visits with the cops. Oh...and did I add in that the poor girl was mentally disabled?
Let's watch and see how much punishment will be handed down when this happens....also there are supposedly are 2 more suspects out that, I wonder if the cops are diligently looking for those people too?

I think both this thread and this incident via the projected problems of others have been infested by a lot of extraneous and irrelevant information.
-- that much I know.

Man...whatever....
still doesn't excuse the fact that procedures of dealing with crime and dishing out punishment is unbalanced in this country towards members of the minority and the poor (in many cases both go hand in hand) and no matter how you and your attitude want to pretty it up, the REALITY is, this is how it is.
good night...
