[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] [b]Breaking News- Another Noose Incident Near Jena by Nathan Stubbs (excerpt) Breaking News- Another Noose Incident Near JenaINDEPENDENT WEEKLY The national spotlight was on the small town of Jena yesterday, where thousands of demonstrators rallied in support of six African-American teens charged with aggravated battery for beating up a white student after a series of racially-charged confrontations that started after white students hung nooses from a tree near the school. While the rally was a peaceful affair, and many locals went on national TV defending their small town and stating that the Jena 6 case was being blown out of proportion, an incident not far away in Alexandria is further inflaming racial tensions. CNN reports that not far from Jena, police arrested two teenagers driving a red truck with nooses tied to the back who drove by a group of Jena 6 demonstrators in Alexandria. Alexandria city officials say the two teens were from the Jena area. According to CNN: Police say the 18-year-old driver of the truck was charged with driving while intoxicated and inciting to riot and also may be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor -- the 16-year-old passenger. As police were questioning the driver, he said he had an unloaded rifle in the back, which police found. They also found a set of brass knuckles in the cup holder on the dashboard, according to the police report. The passenger told police he and his family are in the Ku Klux Klan, the police report said. He also said he had tied the nooses and that the brass knuckles belonged to him, the report said. At least one of the nooses was made out of an extension cord, according to the police report[/b] http://www.lanewslink.com/ like i said? this thing is beginning to spiral out of control...
