Any pain or disappointment is transformed into growth and understanding.
Does any one know the reason the news stations (cbs, nbc,abc) are not broadcasting the stories regarding the Jena 6 in Jena Louisianna?
This could be just a guess, but perhaps the news networks don't deem people of color to be as important...? There is a lot of racism in this country...
Sounds like a school boys fighting. The parents of both sides should be the ones in jail for letting this get out of hand. You get into a fight and take your knocks and walk away and no one would have been in jail. There's racism in every country, go to Iraq where they don't stop at a fist fight but cut each others heads and limbs off by the hundreds. A little fist fight and OUT COMES THE RACE CARD..
Have you READ what happen in Jena? It seems the race card was always played there. I know about Iraq, but we are not in Iraq, we are in the United States. Yes that's what should have happened, take your knocks and walk away, but some people wanted to take it further. attempted murder, assault. Those charges for a "school fight".
