[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] it gets better Mach, like said earlir? i've followed this for along time.. the DA was actually asked to come to town to talk to the students as awhole, and he threatened them... the African American student felt that the threats were directed at them... [b]A few of the black athletes, the stars of the football team, took the lead in resisting. The day after the nooses were hung, they reportedly organized a silent protest under the tree. The school called an assembly and summoned the police and the district attorney. Black students sat on one side, whites on the other. District Attorney Reed Walters warned the students he could be their friend or their worst enemy. He lifted his fountain pen and said, "With one stroke of my pen, I can make your life disappear." That evening, black students told their parents that the DA was looking right at them. Walters denies that. Billy Fowler, a member of the school board, doesn't believe it, either.[/b] you think the DA was there to help? the whites were jubilant... this is a long story and i'm not gonna write it all out now, but it involves guns and fires in the school buildings.. charges of theft when somebody disarmed somebody else with a shotgun... (every pickup down here has at least one gun in it) it's about as convoluted as a Grisham novel... how the DA decided to charge the kids with attempted murder is gonna end up like the Duke LaCrosee thing... it won't stand up under scrutiny.. the kid got a black eye and "maybe" a concussion. but he walked right out of the hospital and went out that same night... sure something happened, but it happened because the LEADERS didn't LEAD when the time came to stand up and lead... i said before and i'll say it again, i don't want to see the kids charged with hate crimes, but for the DA to say he couldn't find a crime to charge the noose hangers with is total BULLCHIT..
