Im not getting back into the Jena 6 debate because my sources clear up all the mis information in the case and leave only one question standing, which I agree with.
"Why the attempted murder charges?"
I believe they were a bit harsh but I have confidence that is has nothing to do with race.
Then again, Race baiters would jump to the race of a character first thing, if that person is black. And jump to the race of a suspect and call for his hanging, if that suspect is white and the victim is black... (Duke Lacross, West Virginia Rape, etc).

| Exactly. They were not arrested which tells me that there was a big difference between the scuffle you are trying to compare to a brutal 6 on 1 beating. Quote: |
as the black students were in the Dec. 4 incident?
| I suppose your next somersault in reason is going to be that its because the black students were arrested just for being black. Quote: |
Why were they not charged with attempted murder since they were wearing deadly footwear? Unequal justice.
| Probably had something to do with the severity and brutality of the beating that was given by the Jena 6. Quote: |
Bailey was attacked inside the fair barn, then the attack continued outside by Sloan and other white attackers. The fight continued until the police arrived. Don't you think it's likely some "injuries" occured in a fight that continued that length of time?
| I don't work on assumptions. Show me a report cataloging his injuries and then we can work from there. Quote: |
Remember, Barker was taunting Bailey for getting his "@ss whipped." Doesn't an "@ss whipping" result in significant injury?
| No. Where do you draw that conclusion from? Quote: |
Just because he didn't seek medical treatment for his "injuries," that doesn't mean there were none.
| Actually, when it comes to official record, yes it does mean that there were none. Or at least none significant enough to aggravate simple assault. Quote:
It's just possible he didn't have health insurance. | Neither my nor the court's problem. Until you can show where Bailey suffered significant injury, justice was served equally until Sharpton et al started playing the "race" card backed up by a bullhorn.
But you keep right on being Sharpton's tool, ok. |

any man who presses charges, without suffering serious injury, is pathetic
everybody needs a good asswhipping every now and again
I know i am long overdue | It was not a one on one. You need to read the facts. The protest was not about not punishing the Jena 6. it was all about lack of equal justice.

Those white kids were not charged at all and it appers that they insighted the whole incident in the first place. Do you think it is fair that no white kid was charged? |

Should the white kids be charged for beating up one black kid. Should they be charged for threatening the black kids with a gun? Do you think it was fair that the black kids were charged for wrong doing and not the white kids? |
