I'm sure neither story is 100% factual no matter what side you're standing on.

All I can do is speak from experience. I have a lot of relatives in Lousiana, and can say without a doubt that there are still too many race related problems. It's like stepping in a time machine and going back 30 years in the way racial attitudes are presented.

Maybe more good than bad will happen today no matter what the short term solution is.

It was either Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson that help to organize the protest.
To me, basically what they are saying it is wrong to punish them.

IMO those two are more racist than anyone i know of.

Greg, I agree there is still alot of racism still here, But the ones involved in charging them are both black and white. When them boys drug the black guy down the road in Jasper, they didn't cut them any slack, I dont think these guys should get a break either... To me they had it planned ahead of time, probably since the noose incident. Thats premeditated and leads to the conspiracy charges.
