"Jena Six refers to a group of six black teenagers who have been arrested and charged with crimes related to their alleged involvement in the assault of a white teenager in Jena, Louisiana, on December 4, 2006. The incident is one of many racially charged events that have occurred in the town since the hanging of nooses on the "white tree" on the Jena High School campus, which some have called a prank and others say recalls the history of lynching. Critics of how the case was handled, including civil rights activists Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, have said that the arrests and subsequent charges were racially motivated.[1] Some residents of the town - both white and black - have expressed the view that the current problem is more the fault of outsiders using racial politics to influence the justice system. Additionally, U.S. Attorney Donald Washington has expressed the opinion that although discipline was mishandled by the school, he has found no reason to believe that there was unfair judicial action.[2]"
Just goes to show that sadly, racism is alive and well in todays youth. The mainstream media is definitely doing its part to propogate it, and I sure as heck am sad that I predicted that racism would increase 5-6 months ago as I began reading article after article from Europe to America in big name newspapers specifying racial inequality, pointing out how blacks had began to grow in dominance and increase GDP from Russia to Germany, etc. To me, it was an obvious gear up for a massive campaign to create an atmosphere of tension in two already tense continents.
You have massive illegal immigration on both continents, a tense native population, Draconian laws, fears of terrorism from an enemy that is literally flowing through the borders in the hundreds of thousands, wars of aggression waged afar, economic peril and all sorts of other calamitous variables that just goes to show...
I know entirely too much about obviously non-relative issues, and am an obvious fearmonger........ - 88iou, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I love how the principal essentially says that Johnathon Curtis deserved to get beat up for wearing a Free the Jena 6 t-shirt. So much for freedom of speech in public schools.
