13 yr old Caucasian boy beaten severly by a group of African Americans for the crime of being white. Caught on tape! This kind of hideous blatant violence based on racism is the sort of thing that Jackson and Sharpton should be all over, right? Can I assume they are on their way to Norfolk, VA to rile up the locals in a protest for peace and equality?

Black leaders only stand up for the rights of black people. Why would they care if a group of black guys beat up a 13 year old White boy? They're stupid hypocrites. I still don't care at all about this stupid Jena 6 case. People never think it's racist when minorities beat or kill White people. But it's considered racist when White people beat or kill minorities. Or when minorities are punished to harshly for attacking Whites. The bottom line is that Americans aren't going to march when there's a tape of a group of blacks beating up a White boy. While the reverse would get huge media attention, & would be called a hate crime.

Were the black kids assaulted on more than one ocassion by the white kids prior to the attack? Had a group of adults also assaulted the black kids reponsible for this attack? Had white adults pointed a shotgun at the black kids before this attack? All with no charges filed?
Say what you will about Jackson and Sharpton. The situation you obliquely refer to in Jena, LA cries out for justice. With all of the previous white on black violence there not one charge was filed against shite assailants while black assailants had the book thrown at them.
The attack in Virginia was despicable. However, it in no way changes the obvious racism evident in Jena.

As I said before: If the attack wasn't provoked ...do what you do, but 20+ years in an adult prison still doesn't fit this crime. Besides, "Damien said one of his alleged attackers was among a group of students at his school that mistreated him because he was the new kid", not because he was Black/White. You guys can not say anything about Blacks playing the race card, but hey...I don't expect much from you guys anyway and I'm pretty sure it's vice versa.

Do you see PETA members standing up for the crisis in Darfur?
Do you see NRA members protesting the war?
As much as I don't care for these two characters, I really wish people would stop acting like they are so different from other people or organizations with agendas. They stay specific to what they claim is their agenda and that's what is expected of propogandists.
Stop spending so much time on them!
