How would you go on living not hating the blacks who convicted before any evidence was presented just based on the fact that they hate white people?

I do think that the lacrosse players will go out of this with hate for the only two to blame.. Mike Nifong and the accuser
Mike Nifong was clearly violating all ethical boundaries from the beginning, the case details aside. He was practicing unethical behavior by providing details to the press that should have remained silent (especially considering he knew this would eventually go to court somehow) as well as passing judgment about the accused:
"D.A. Nifong referred to the lacrosse players 'a bunch of hooligans' whose 'daddies could buy them expensive lawyers' "
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/10/11/60minutes/main2082140.shtml
Have we ever heard of the whole "Innocent until proven guilty?" especially when you represent the government that wrote these laws?
Nifong should be disbarred, and I believe the families will set out to do this. This is a man with a bit too much ego trying to use a case to gain national attention before a much-debated election for his now-current term.
This case should have never happened, and it was due to one woman that decided that she should lie. She should apologize to those she accused and to the nation as a whole, and go to jail for providing false statements to the police and perjury. This are both serious issues and she should pay the price. Choices have consequences.
Besides Mike Nifong and the accuser, the other group that stepped too quickly into this business without considering the consequences was Rev. Jesse Jackson and his group, the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition, who vowed to pay for the accusers tuition whether or not her story was true...
"Jackson he has yet to speak with the woman, but said his group pledged to pay for her tuition even if her story proves false."

No group should consider making such an offer without considering the consequences of such a thing. Should all of those that cry wolf be offered a prize? This only hurts that ones that the wolves truly attack.
All said, I think that the young men accused will go on to have fruitful lives, but will forever have a blemish on this time of their life. Shouldn't someone be to blame? Mike Nifong and the accuser should be in jail.

No, they are not likely to do that.
I think that after the case is dropped as it will have to eventually be, they are going to look like victims themselves.
There will be book deals and speaking engagements lined up for a long time to come.
Everyone that pointed the accusing finger at them so far looks very foolish right now.
The prosecutor is on the verge of being dis-bared for hiding evidence.
The whole thing is becoming a mockery of the justice system.
This is going to be a text book case held up in law schools for scrutiny and as an example for ever more.
The Duke Lacross Players will walk away from this with the last laugh, you can count on it.

I will not be surprised if they sue the accuser and Mike Nifong and in fact they should. Maybe then it'll stop some other person from reporting a false crime and trying to ruin three men's lives.
As for Duke, what they said today, when they invited the two men back to attend classes, I would tell that school to kiss my *** and go to hell!

Id sue the "Victim" for slander and Mike Nifong for malicious prosecution especiall since he new in may that the DNA evidence was exculpatory.

Well, not all blacks did this. These guys know how it feels to be hastily judged; I hope they will be careful not to do it to others.

They may not say it but I think deep down they will and I probably can't blame them if they do.

I feel sorry for them, but they must forgive , if they want our heavenly Father to forgive them.
