imtrublu Rialto, CA age: 45	http://dailynews.att.net/cgi-bin/news?e=pri&dt=070920&cat=news&st=newsd8rp8h1g0&src=ap What I read was that white students hung nooses in a tree. Sick, but it dealt with. Although they had broken no law (even animal rights activists who throw paint are charged with assault or vandalism, but here there was no chargeable crime) “didn't charge the white students accused of hanging the nooses because he could find no Louisiana law under which they could be charged.” they were still punished by being suspended from school. “Whites asked blacks if they were aware of Bell's criminal record, blacks replying that Jena High School administrators had mishandled the incidents at the school.” It isn’t like the whole matter was ignored or treated lightly. These days, your high school record (knew a woman who was even questioned about a D in PE in 8th grade during her college interview) can seriously work for or against you, and something like this will be a detriment in his future. And I am disgusted that adults are condoning their kids act or react in this way, as if violence is ok as long as you are the right color. But, another kid that already has a criminal record, “In the beating case, he said, four of the defendants were of adult age under Louisiana law and the only juvenile charged as an adult, Mychal Bell, had a prior criminal record.” got his buddies to help him physically assault another kid (because he was white). “The beating victim, Justin Barker, was knocked unconscious, his face badly swollen and bloodied, though he was able to attend a school function later that night.” First, that is what they call vigilante justice, and illegal. Second, it should have been labeled a hate crime, and they ALL should’ve faced charges for that. I think the reason why they haven’t is because all the supporters of the actual criminals in this case, are making so much noise. Sucks, but it looks to me like this poor little town is being intimidated into bowing over to blatant racism. Don’t forget, these supporters are advocating violence by their stance. Who gets jumped next? Martin Luther King III , "the justice system isn't applied the same to all crimes and all people." Obviously not. If the roles/races were reversed, this would have immediately have been labeled a hate crime. "This is the most blatant example of disparity in the justice system that we've seen," Sharpton told CBS's "The Early Show" before arriving in Jena. "You can't have two standards of justice." And I agree, but it is exactly what seems to be happening. Just because these kids are black, they want to be exempt from the law completely. Reduced charges aren’t enough, their supports want them set FREE, with no repercusions. “Bell, 16 at the time of the attack, is the only one of the "Jena Six" to be tried so far. He was convicted on an aggravated second-degree battery count that could have sent him to prison for 15 years, but the conviction was overturned last week when a state appeals court said he should not have been tried as an adult. Thursday's protest had been planned to coincide with Bell's sentencing, but organizers decided to press ahead even after the conviction was thrown out.” “Sharpton said Bell, whom he spoke with Wednesday, was heartened by the show of support. "He doesn't want anything done that would disparage his name _ no violence, not even a negative word," Sharpton said.” WTF? What he DID disparages himself, his family, and those that condone it. "It is about finding justice for an innocent victim and holding people accountable for their actions." Should be the case for everybody, not just the ones who use the race card to hide behind. “The rally was heavily promoted on black Web sites, blogs, radio and publications.” “The demonstrators included large numbers of civil rights movement veterans and college students from across the region who weren't alive in the '60s. Tina Cheatham missed the civil rights marches at Selma, Montgomery and Little Rock, but she had no intention of missing another brush with history. The 24-year-old Georgia Southern University graduate drove all night to reach tiny Jena in central Louisiana. "It was a good chance to be part of something historic since I wasn't around for the civil rights movement. This is kind of the 21st century version of it," she said.” This is what this is all about for a lot of the well meaning, just grossly misguided, sheeple. Just like the one above. I think they just want “to be a part of something”. Jackson, King, etc, are probably just seeing this as a way to get their names and faces back in the news, and another chance to further their agenda. Their claims that it is anything like the civil rights demonstrations of the past are ridiculous. The only similarity at all is that they are now promoting what they were supposedly against back then. This case alone shows me that the true racism here is by those that constantly claim to be the victim, and refuse to take any responsibility for their own part in any of it. The most repugnantly hypocritical thing I have seen on this so far (but I imagine there will be plenty more to come that will top it) was… http://dailynews.att.net/cgi-bin/news?e=pri&dt=070921&cat=news&st=newsd8rpqfm82&src=ap “The only strident note came at the end of the rally when a group of Black Panthers took the microphone and led the crowd in chants. "We're nonviolent when people are nonviolent with us," one speaker said. "We're not nonviolent with people that are violent with us." Yeah right. According to the supporters of the assailants, any perceived insult is reason enough to justify a gang jumping, with no repercussions for the attackers. What a load of crap!!!!!!!!!!

soulcitywalker Lexington, KY age: 48	Your message doesn't contain several major issues, such as the white student who got beat up had a shotgun and threatened the Blacks. Also doesn't say anything about the whites who beat the Blacks or the intimidtaing comments made by the prosecutor: "With a stroke of my pen I can put you away for life," as if he's the judge and the jury. There are several other things missing from your message, such as the history of racial beatings and abuse by police suffered by the Black citizens of Jena for decades.

wildgypsy Bellevue, WA age: 45	“Your message doesn't contain several major issues, such as the white student who got beat up had a shotgun and threatened the Blacks.” Better show the source/proof that ever happened, as it hasn’t been in any of the numerous reports I have seen on TV or on the net. ”Also doesn't say anything about the whites who beat the Blacks or the intimidtaing comments made by the prosecutor: "With a stroke of my pen I can put you away for life," as if he's the judge and the jury.” LOL Again, a verbal insult is justification for anything if your black??? That really doesn’t wash. Using this type of logic would justify the nooses as well, and that was almost as ugly as the physical assault. Yes, I do consider it worse to "raise your hand" than to "raise your voice". ”There are several other things missing from your message, such as the history of racial beatings and abuse by police suffered by the Black citizens of Jena for decades.” Gonna have to prove that one, along with why it is relevant to the case of several boys jumping and beating another. I haven’t seen a single thing so far that would excuse the acts of Bell and his buddies. And keep in mind, this is not his first assault charge. Did someone call him a bad name last time too???? Poor baby. Just exactly why do you think that these kids should not suffer the normal consequences of these horrific actions? As far as Bell being charged as an adult, it is fairly customary for a 16 year old, especially one with a prior criminal record, which Bell has. Here we have a term called "habitual offender" and they don't get as much slack.

professer2 Saint Petersburg, FL age: 52	....The Jena gimmick is no joke, how can so many people(thousands) respond to justice in progress. One good lawyer could get to the truth mob rule never works. Or is it might makes right. How come six dudes attack one anyway?

jcsx Bellevue, WA age: 47	China and SCW, why include lies that aren't true? And why no response to the questions by wild? I'd like to see how either of you two can justify anyone assaulting a person just for being called a name or anything else that lame. If that were a legit reason, you would both have mobs forming at your front doors after all the name calling you have done on this site alone, and have no reason to complain to the cops or anyone else when you were drug onto the front lawn and given a beat down. Hell, SCW's constant Amerikkka is as inflamatory as those nooses.

knightnyte2 Spring, TX age: 54	oh the typical activist wording.. saying only parts while accusing. I quoted on another of these jena threads about an activist interviewed on Fox Saturday night (yet to receive a response or a blog of his interview) that stated several myths about those accused. He even said those 6 kids arrested were not even the ones doing the beating. They are innocent. Sounds like another OJ trial. He said to those interested in his type justice (spreading enough half truths to create doubt) to declare the whole bunch innocent. I have to agree, filing attempted murder seems a bit out there, but 6 kids against one, does seem a bit odd, doesn't it? No doubt they should be charged with a hate crime. The noose hanging on the tree by the kids was wrong, but it was a prank. Didnt see anyone hanging from those ropes either. Those kids should have been sentenced to some community service simply because that is a no no. Not against the law though folks. However, a properly made noose is a criminal offense in some states. They never covered that though in the news. Then some redneck comes along with a shotgun, and the gun was taken away from him. Was he charged with attempted murder? or assault? those kids who beat up the one kid committed a crime. How serious in determined by the law, not you or i in web sites such as this. the kid still in jail, well, like gypsy said, the records are sealed. and the media lies so frigging much I wouldn't believe what they say as a secret source anyway. the more you stir a pile of dung, the worse it smells.

wildgypsy Bellevue, WA age: 45	Seems the racists are getting their way, unfortunately. The prosecutor backed off the appeal, so now the punk gets tried in juvenile court. Repeat offender for violent crimes, but since he is black will just get a slap on the wrist. I suppose that now the racists will not settle for anything less than a full dismissal of all charges. They have bullied this town as far as they have, what is to stop them now?

jcsx Bellevue, WA age: 47	Pretty screwed up. Let this kid off, he will laugh at them all, and go and assault more white kids. Why not, got away with assault twice before? Might decide it is time to take his chanced with a full blown murder, and just get Sharpton and King to come on back down to bully him out of that one too. Or was that his intent this time, just didn't get time to finish because someone broke it up? What I am starting to wonder is when someone is going to turn around and do some vigilante justice on him like he and his buddies tried to do to that kid.

wildgypsy Bellevue, WA age: 45	jcsx, if anyone did do what the punk did, they would have to be black to get away with it like the punk did. But I do see this as a furtherance of the racial stereotypes if anything, which really sucks. If people are going to be this stupid, why can't they just keep it to themselves instead of poisoning so many others and causing so much deserved resentment?

imtrublu Rialto, CA age: 45	I do wish that black leaders would send a different message to their youth. Instead of teaching them to be racist opportunists with double standards as ugly as the KKK, why not teach them to SHOW the world they are better than that?

wildgypsy Bellevue, WA age: 45	Time for the vigilant minorities to embrace the concepts of "equal" opportunity and affirmative action, and start giving as good as they want to get, and already have been for that matter.

photographerny Camp Pendleton, CA age: 25 online now!	say what you will, but we live in a culture where all other races are subconsciously raised to believe whites are the default bad guys, and that if it wasnt for us, the rest of the world would be some sort of paradise.
