Six kids ganged up on one kid and beat him. Why shouldn't they be punished?

Everybody acts like it is so racist that they were punished. If six white kids had ganged up on a black kid, then they would probably all have gotten the death penalty. There is so much reverse discrimination in this country. If society tries to punish a black person for legitimately doing something wrong, then they cry racism.

I know that some white kids hung nooses in a tree, and I agree that what they did was wrong, but they did not physically harm anybody. Imagine how frightening it would be to have six people attacking you. The kid attacked probably thought he was going to be killed. How does that even compare to a stupid, inappropriate demonstration?

Yes, the noose thing was wrong, but just because a few immature white teenagers in a small town decided to hang ropes in a tree doesn't mean racism is still a big problem in America. It was one isolated incident.

What ever happened to.............We the people of the United States of America.........................................................have the inalienable rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
I think that life and liberty are still possibly adhered to but what about the pursuit of happiness. Do we think that we have the right to instant gratification or do we still understand that we all need to pursue happiness for ourselves in a lawful and moral community.

Has the "Great American Dream" been fractured and slipped out of sight?

She sat in the over stuffed chair, legs almost tucked under body, but more at her side. Her left hand lay across her left ankle, her digits fingered her middle of the right foot. The pencil that was between the middle and ring finger, was pressed lightly against her forehead.
She was perhaps nineteen years old. Brownish hair, wearing a black shorts, not too tight, and white sweater covering a white pullover blouse. She was pretty, not stunning, but would look terrific dressed in just the right outfit. Her nose on the thin side, which blended well with her small mouth.
Staring intently at her book, she had come to Barnes and Noble as a place to study, not a place to buy. Occasionally, she would make a note on her paper that sat in the book. Her right hand curled around the book, holding the pages in place, which appeared soon to be finished. That suggested that she was in college and the class was not unlike the book nearing an end.
Her hair that came to the middle of her back, half to the front, half back over the shoulder. She would read for a moment, and then need to break, looking around at people. She picked at something on her arm at the elbow and then tried to get the itch with the eraser on the tip of the pencil. She stopped reading and looked about the room, then at nothing, thinking. She made a decision and and stood up, placed the book on chair to keep someone from sitting there Her return without another book, suggested that she had slipped off the to the restroom,
She sat again, and re assumed the curled up possession. She picked up the small charm on her silver necklace and used it as a control to rub the chain over the area that sat between her chin and lower lip.
If the ring on her left hand was a correct indication, she was engaged to man that was not with her this afternoon in early June. She was relatively slim by the non-model standards of the 2000's, which were more in line with what was thin pre-Twiggy of the 60s. She was healthy looking.
The she looked up as someone appeared. He was older then her, but not really father age. So it appeared the finance was here. Yet they did not seem a match. He reached down and touched her hair and spoke something softly to her. She nodded. Not changing expression from the serious one that she wore.

i was catholic up until 2 days ago. now i am on the borderline between believing. i only think logically, i have the hardest time understanding faith. last time i tried faith it doesnt make me feel better its like a false sense of security. there are good arguments on both sides but i see better ones on the Athiest side. also if i ever trying talking to christians i ALWAYS get harrassed or get interrogated. the only answers i get are just believe u dont want to burn do u? i dont need scare tactics.

but if i ask an atheist he is open minded and sorry to say..he / she sounds smarter.

I am 36 weeks pregnant, and I will be having my baby soon, the doctor said he might induce me next week because there is too much amniotic fluid. I am terrified of giving birth, I am so scared of the pain and I don't want to have an epidural. I know every labor is different but can someone give me an idea of how labor feels? Also I feel so emotional all the time, Im feeling a little down, I was on anti-depressants before my pregnancy, do you think these are normal feelings right now? Because I feel down now, could this mean I may get really bad baby blues?? Please help me with all these questions, I would sooooooooo appreciate it. Thank you
