Yeah.. I agree.

Did you see the one where a communist website sporting a swastika as one of their symbols came out against the Jena 6? I guess the author is probably also a member of the People's Communist Socialist party (or whatever it was).

Some of his points are valid, some I disagree with...

but the main thing that is prevalent and I have been asking since I first hear it was this passage

Here is another undeniable, statistical fact: The best way for a black (or white) father to ensure that his son doesn’t fall victim to a racist prosecutor is by participating in his son’s life on a daily basis.


My question has been where were the parents on both sides of this as this event played out? For that matter, where were the ADULTS who were responsible for all of these kids and why weren't they doing more that sitting on thier hands and burying thier heads in the sands?

Nice logic leap, Kevin.

I'm not sure why you didn't make that leap? I mean, surely, if he's not out parroting the party line, he's on the side of the racists? That's what being an Uncle Tom is, right?

Are you being facetious? Just in case you're serious, no that is not what an Uncle Tom is.
