the Jena 6

To share some KFC and KoolAid under the tree with their new friends?

“All this time, I thought I just liked chicken because it was good. Now I find out that by being black, I’m predisposed to liking chicken.”

I’m a white man, and I’ll eat friend chicken all day (well i would if it weren’t so fatty)

<3 watermelon. Just sayin…

“We will continue to eat pickled pigs feet to confuse the white man”.

From the Family Guy where Peter found out he had a black ancestor.

So many rednecks and radical right wingers on this site.

ALEXANDRIA, Louisiana (CNN) – Authorities in Alexandria, Louisiana, arrested two people after nooses were seen hanging from the back of a red pickup Thursday night, the city’s mayor told CNN.

Alexandria is less than an hour away from Jena, Louisiana, and was a staging area Thursday for protesters who went to the smaller town to demonstrate against the treatment of six black teens known as the “Jena 6” in racially charged incidents.
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. http://i.l.cnn.net/cnn/.element/img/2.0/mosaic/tabs/video.gif Watch what police found on the truck »
At least one of the nooses was made out of an extension cord, according to the police report.
Alexandria Mayor Jacques Roy said those arrested were “from around Jena” and not in the same parish as his city. http://i.l.cnn.net/cnn/.element/img/2.0/mosaic/tabs/map.gif See where the incident occurred

The police report says a crowd of about 200 people, mostly African-Americans, watched the arrest take place.
Roy said the incident is “not indicative” of Alexandria and that local authorities will look into the matter “completely, thoroughly and transparently.”
A photograph of the truck was sent to CNN by Casanova Love, 26, who said he’s in the U.S. Navy. He’s visiting his family in Louisiana.
Love said he was standing outside a club with some friends Thursday night when he saw the red pickup drive by slowly with two nooses hanging from it.
He said the truck continued up the street and passed by a large group of Jena 6 protesters standing outside a bus stop. Police then pulled over the vehicle.
Love explained why he sent the photo to CNN: “People need to see this. It’s 2007, and we still have fools acting like it’s 1960.”
State police estimated at least 15,000 people gathered in Jena on Thursday to protest what they consider unequal punishments meted out in recent racially charged cases.

One involved the hanging of nooses from a tree a day after black students sat under what had been an informal gathering place for white students. The students involved were suspended from school for a brief time.
Another was the beating of a white student that resulted in six black teens facing charges that include aggravated second-degree battery. E-mail to a friend http://i.l.cnn.net/cnn/.element/img/2.0/mosaic/util/email.gif

nope… if falls within 3.4 defects per million :smiley:

plays devils advocate
what the f*ck? so now its illegal to drive with a noose hanging out the back of your pickup truck? what happened to land of the FREE, home of the brave?

LMAO is it still the 60s down there. I say fuck em all. Fuck the kid(s) for putting a noose in a tree and thinking it was funny, fuck the other kids for gang beating his ass. Fuck the kid that got beat up for, getting beat up. Fuck em all. I hate this world most of the time.

:word: That part of the country (Mississippi, Alabama) never got the message about Jim Crow being done away with.

It’ll be fun to watch the national guard have to clean this up. :gotme:

this reminds me of the movie “a time to kill”

Obviously there are meatheads everywhere you go but as far as civil rights, equality and such, the south and mid-west seem decades behind. It’s kinda sad.

MS, and LA are wastes of land.

And I stand by that.

Driving with the noose might have been ok if the guy wasn’t drunk and contributing to the delinquency of a minor at the time.

Note to rednecks everywhere. If you want to push the boundry of free speech, sober up first.

well they wouldnt be rednecks then lol

what frame of mind do you have to be in to think that you wouldnt get in trouble for that ???

when the kid became unconscious and they still continued to stomp,kick, & punch him until they were pulled away is where it becomes attempted murder.

Look up the history and origination of the Juneteenth Celebration.

The job of african americans in our society is to play the race card for everything…

WHAT A JOKE

If you dont have something productive to add to the debate stay the fuck outta the thread

Care to explain? Tossing around generalizations like that just shows your own ignorance. Show us that you’re not really that ignorant.
