I just think its sad, how you live your life in some big city, not knowing the things going on in the small cities. I'm glad people are not scared anymore about whats going on in their own neibhborhood.

I know what happened because I am here! and you people are very misinformed!!!
I just wish you knew!!!
The media should of stayed out of the whole mess.
Just for one thing they failed to mention was the noses were put up because there was a ballgame going on between Jena and a team from Texas and the noses were to say "Hang em High" and from that the class clown who happened to be black got up in front of the school and ask the principal is he could sit under the white tree. Which was a joke and it went crazy after that.
It was that same black boy that thru himself on the white guy to keep the gang from killing him when they were beating him up. You see the story was never told about what really happened.
That is just sketches of it. Wish I could write the whole thing but I would not be able to,

The first report told me one thing now today I found out the white boy was beaten in the school.
In this day and age you would have thought the authorities would have gotten on this issue when it first began.

The most unfortunate thing with this is it has pushed the civil rights movement back to the turbalent 50's and 60's.

Sadly racism is alive and breeding like fungus in the US. Something has to change. America is not owned by exclusively white people and some whites think so. Sadly enough.

you know i would agree with countess, if that guy would be back, and those six guys would be white, they would blame them in Racism.
Ironically while people were working , making money, feeding their families, some people were marching
look those 6 kids were wrong. so justice had been served.

If the boy had been black,the others white, there wouldn't be a case.
