Larry, first my question to you is when where you born? It maybe irrelevant to you but this will give me some indication as to your thoughs on 1960's civil rights march's. If you where born after that time you will not be able to relate to it. So all the hoop hollaring that's going on now is just another media circus for you. Let me help you with a little refresher. First we will start from WWII.
Let me see, oh yea hitler was in full swing in Germany and so on and so on, you know the story from school right. Well that doesn't relate to this does it, not really but...Oh yea hitler want to create a super race base on RACE. humm what's wrong with that right. Oh but wait, all the jews and other races (yes Jews where not the only one's going to the gas chambers..do your resource and maybe you can tell me the other races that where also gassed/murdered) where in the way. So he decides.......you know the rest of the story right. So back to the point all those things happen in the past right, there not related to what's going on know.
So let's got to 1950-60's america. Racism is in full swing. Oh yea this didn't just start in 1960 it start way before then. Are you a history buff then you will be able to determine when and where it originated from (another good research point). What does this have to do with JENA case. Well let's see..hitler seperate other race from the master race by symbols...so when one was seen you could determine his race. Now to 1950-60's america. Blacks and whites are seperate not by symbols but by the color of there skin. One race fells the other is inferior and not of the same status as them, there where a lot of symbols used to put fear in inferior races(guess what some of them where..hummmm a noose...a burning cross to name the most famous ones.)
Now here we are in 2007, a noose is hung from a tree (is this a prank or does it indicates something more since it was hung by 3 white kids).
On the white kid that got beat up...what you don't hear is that he was taunting the black kids, 6 of them if i've read the court case correct about the noose hanging and the black kid that got beat by a white man...humm does this remind you of any thing...SLAVERY times maybe.
So you say "If it was a white gang that did the same to a black kid.......humm I've heard and saw this happen before can you tell me where and when? I ask these question not to provoke you but show that unless you are blind and not in tune to what's going on around you (walking through life with blinders on or you really don't care what other's think or do as long as it doesn't cross your world).
Believe me there are plenty in this country that do just that.
You will not be able to see the injustice that sometimes is so blanant that it's out of control. To stay focus it's not just the injustice that is being done (one black kid got jump on by whites at a party (this is unrelated to the other fight) and got hit with a bottle over the head...now that's an assault with a deadly weapon, not a tennis shoe...but only one of the white kids was convicted).
Again i guess becuase Micheal bell has a prior criminal record that makes him more of a criminal since he kick the kid in the head with his tennis shoe... than the bottle over the head assualter.
Maybe all will not see it that way. Each of us are different in our own way. But one thing we all have in common is we bleed and die the same.
Now off the beating path. Let's go to Iraq.
If you want to see brotherhood in full swing. We in the military look out for each other...oh there is racism but it's not tolarated. Ask any who have tried to hang a noose in the military and see what happens.
As i see it we can continue down this same path and repeat those same mistakes from the 50's and 60's or even before that. Or we can say we will not tolerate this anymore. If you do something to provoke another based on race you will be punished. The military stamped out racism the right way. If only our so call civilian counter parts could follow our lead.

You know I totally understand that the white kids did something , this day and time, wrong. However there is no law that has been broken. They were suspended and hopefully their parents took some sort of action on their kid to show them that what they did was not right. Now on the other hand the black students broke the law. A kid was severely beaten. Need I remind you that when the LA riots were going on a black man was beaten down and NAACP jumped in and there was a huge uproar. It seems to me that the racist black community needs to turn around and look at themselves. You can't have it both ways. The boy, whether they were black, white, hispanic, asian or cuban broke the law and should be punished. Instead they are being paraded around on T.V. and newspapers. I am so personally tired of the racist card being used. It seems to me that the black population and the NAACP are racist to the white population. Anyhow I will stop right where I am at before something gets taken the wrong way. Long story short, you break the law, you get punished. Each case is different therefore different punishments are handed out. Once again if the white boy beat the crap out of the black kid Al Sharpton would still be there. It is a damn if you do and damn if you don't.
You know it shouldn't matter if he went somewhere that night or not. He was beaten up severly. You break the law and you pay. Black, White, Green or Purple!!

"Not only is there almost no media coverage of the Black violent hate crimes against Whites, but in high profile cases when Blacks are prosecuted for heinous crimes against innocent Whites, the White victims are ignored and the Black criminals are turned into “real victims” by the media.
Nothing more clearly illustrates this point than what has occurred over the past year in Jena, Louisiana and the orgy of hatred that Jena has suffered. today, September 20, the town has been invaded by thousands of thugs like Al Sharpton who seek to make violent Black hate criminals such as Michael Bell and the rest of the so-called “Jena Six” into heroes. Even worse the entire White population of the town is facing a media lynching by being labeled racists who are unjustly persecuting Black young men.
Michael Bell, who has been convicted of four previous violent crimes, (a fact scarcely revealed by the media), led a group of six Black students to attack and unmercifully beat a White Student at Jena High School in what can only be described as a vicious hate crime. Motivated by racial hatred, the six Blacks attacked one lone White student, Justin Barker. They stomped and kicked him to unconsciousness and continued to kick him and stomp him as he lay helpless. The attack could have easily have taken his life if others had not intervened. Only by the grace of God did he survive.
To show the insane bias of this whole case, just imagine if the facts were reversed.
If a gang of six Whites motivated by racial hatred and led by a White with four previous violent-crime convictions had attacked a lone Black student, kicking and stomping him into unconsciousness, would there any concern that the leader and the other White gang members could be charged with aggravated assault? Would not there be national demands to charge the White attackers with the most serious of federal civil rights violations and hate crimes? White leaders from all over the country, even the leaders of the local town of Jena, would not be defending the White attackers, they would be condemning the attacks and calling for the harshest of punishments allowed by the law.
As far as the Media are concerned, oh yes the supposedly unbiased media, they would be interviewing the Black victim on every TV talk show across the land, discussing his fear, his pain, his suffering. They would be interviewing his crying relatives and friends. They would not be voicing any fear that the White attackers would be treated too harshly. No, they would be demanding the harshest of penalties.
Federal officials from the President on down would be calling for additional serious charges of federal civil rights violations. But you see, in the America of 2007 Whites are no longer deemed to have any “civil rights.”
When a lone White kid is beaten savagely by a gang of six hate criminals, the media is only concerned about how the Black attackers are being treated too harshly. And if you are waiting for civil rights charges to be filed against the Black attackers who violated the civil rights of the boy they almost beat to death, don’t hold your breath.
The entire Jena scenario and the coverage of it by the media show once again that it is not the people of Jena who are racists. By voting for me and by demanding justice in this case, they have shown rightly that they believe in fairness to all and that White people are now the real victims of racism in America. Once again it is shown that we must have advocates for our rights and heritage just as any other group is permitted to do so.
May the District Attorney and the people of Jena stay strong and never give in to those who seek take away their rights of life and liberty as guaranteed by the United States Constitution."

Why would i want to help? Bell has a criminal record for violence and the kid they beat had nothing to do with the nooses. If you read the whole thing, the noose episode happened months ago and now they jump a white kid who had nothing to do with it and blame it on the noose thing and race thing? Even Martin Luther King III said they deserve to be punished. So why is it so hard for others to see it? Why? Because Sharpton and Jackson wants a media circus to get their faces in the news. Nothing else. The kids need to be punished. Especially if they have a criminal history like Bell.

i don't trust Youtube its ligamate and relaible site.
sorry shweetheart: Bell has 4 past criminal records, + this one. And don't tell, "we shouldn't pay attention to it.
therefore he is criminal.
so it takes 6 black guys to beat 1 white guy, "nice job".
and last note: if not Al sharpton and Jackson , and black folks teach theirs youngsters how to take responsibilities for their action , than we wouldn't had jena 6.
