Yeah they're a bunch of racist assholes, does that mean violence against them should not be prosecuted?
I didn't read anything in there that made me see anything wrong, and I looked and did not see a statement that contradicted the attempted murder charge, I'd need more details for that, but you are all too ready to jump to conclusions.
I bet you were right up there with the mob against the lacrosse players from Duke too.
People like Jackson and Sharpton live for this shit, scouring the nation for any racist (ONLY white on black) like stuff happening, they completely ignore the far greater picture (ie: the far higher number of crimes committed by blacks against whites).
That's interesting, but not an uncommon take .. even form "liberals" .. not meaning to accuse you of liberalism.
It's good that people like Jackson and Sharpton speak out against racism and speak up for non-white people .. I mean who's going to do it ... you?
As far as the "mob" against the Duke players, my position was to wait until the evidence came out even though I fully recognize that blacks don't get that option.
I bet you're one that wants OJ hanged .. but Phil Spector getting away with murder .. blatant "I think I killed her" murder doesn't really rankle your ire. Probably didn't pay too much attention to that one.
There is a dynamic that is fully formed in this country that seperates black/white perspectives that I believe will always exist. Racism is too embedded in America for it to ever go away. The best we can hope for is some modicum of peaceful co-exstence .. but never a fully formed union.
If one uses the "crime" statistics, you can make all manner of assertions about blacks and crime .. but as I've said before, 72% of all illegal drug users and the vast majority of sellers, importers, distributers, and makers of illegal drugs in America are whites. Does that show up in your statistics?
Of course, the overwhelming number of people put in jail for illegal drugs in a nation that incarcerates more of its population than any nation in the history of Humankind, are black.
Of course the disparity in sentencing and arrests for criminal behavior is absolutely known, documented, and proven beyond all reasonable doubt .. but what do you care? .. You're not black and there is no reason for you to be concerned or even slightly care .. so I'm not asking you to.
If you've reviewed the Jena 6 case and found nothing wrong or out of the way, that's only to be expected. I bet you watched the Rodney King beating and couldn't figure out what all the rancor was about.
Like all things, there is a reckoning for evil, and America inches ever close to its own.
