If all parties involved don't sit down together and resolve this situation in a proper manner it could. Unfortunately, local law enforcement and school officials in Jena were very short cited. I thought all schools across the nation were suppose to take steps to prevent any possible events like Columbine from reoccurring. Was it not just this year that several people were killed on a College campus because an Asian student felt rejected by white students? What ever happened to mediation. The school principle should have brought the students and parents involved together months ago to make peace. Adults (parents, school officials, law enforement )must behave in more responsible ways where children are involved. They may be teenagers, but they are still children and they need direction, correction and guidance by the elders in their lives.

Race relations are already suffering because of the hate in man's heart. This recent incident isn't a cause for more racism. It's simply an expose of what's been happening. As a man in America I witness racism on a daily basis. This time it just happened to make the news.

I think they will suffer, but people will come out better because of it. I hope.
I'm for the, "in order to make an omellette you have to break a few eggs" approach. Some things are unacceptable by anyone, and a lot of these things were done during this incident in Jena.
Stop seeing sides people and there will stop being sides.

Race relations will never ever heal...no matter how much we want it too. There will always be blacks who hate whites and there will always be whites who hate blacks. What's really sad is that blacks and whites think they are the most important people out there while issues with other races are ignored. Blacks turned hurricane Katrina into a catastrophe that only hurt black people. I wonder how many Mexicans and other races suffered in that disaster and they were ignored cuz they weren't black?!

America is a big country. There are different situations in different parts of the country. A school fight in a small town in Louisiana doesn't really matter to me. It won't change the way I feel about anything.

I think relations have already suffered from this incident.

Oh yeah!! I think it already has. I don't mean this as any offense, but me and the White people around me, are just plain tired of the race card being played every time Blacks are expected to be treated equally and to suffer the consequences of their actions.

Yes, but only with those ignorant enough to let it effect them in that way. It won't effect me at all, I have friends of all ethnicities and we don't dwell on things like that, like so many people on here do.

it will definitely be challenged no doubt. Hopefully an apology will be given for the act, by both sides as well.

it seems as though one faction will regard anything less than letting these thugs off scot free as a rationale for war
