Thousands rally in La. to support Jena 6-

Agreed, hanging a noose was racist. BUT, there is not a low on the books that says you cannot do it. So nobody broke the law when they did that. BUT when the 6 blacks beat up the white guy, well...there IS a law on the books against that. So it's no longer about race, it's about law. And the law says they did wrong. They are in the wrong, not the noose hangers in the eyes of the law.

Was the noose right, no way. But it wasn't a law breaker. So all the rallyer's are basically rallying behind criminals. And they are doing it because they are black. So THATS RACIST. You guys are condoning criminal activity because of a skin color. I don't know wnats more racist than that.

I disagree with this totally. In the context, if the black kids had pursued this through the proper channels, in all reality, the white kid would have probably had terroristic threats charges brought against him. Something I'm not particularly proud to admit is that in the early-mid '90s my brother was fairly stong in the local neo-nazi skinhead movement, he appeared on Montel Williams a few times on the 'racist' shows, and then later on a 'converted racists' episode. Anyways, back OT, one night, he and some buddies were riding around harassing people, during this he shot a black woman a bird, and yelled at her calling her a ni**er, she called in the tag number and he ended up doing 2 years in state prison. The point is: in all honesty, I feel both parties are at fault. The white kids for being racist morons, and the black kids, even though the punishment didn't fit the crime, they could have gone about it the proper way and avoided the situation altogether.

Your brother is now hunted by the Nazis I believe if it's the same guy i'm thinking of. On a documentary about skins too I think. Your brother is not a bad guy at all iof it's who i'm thinking of, he just fell into the wrong crowd of idiots.

It all boils down to laws. If they did go through the proper channels, I bet terroristic threats could have been brought against them. But instead, the black kids went vigilante and took the law into their own hands. 6 people on one IS attempted murder. I'm sorry to tell anyone here. That's not a fight at that point, it's a massacre.

Spike Lee said it best "Do the right thing" They didn't, now they must pay the price, black or white.
