i dont like when people ack like this i mean this is just plain wrong just brcause were black. that does not mean nothing they have slaved us for so long its not even funny. that boy was treated wrong he should’t have gone to jail i mean it was the white man idea to do a stupid thing like that and im only 7 years old. if the whites are hearing this you better stop because if you dont you will or you are going to hell if you kill us or not we will be going to heaven and not burn down into hell.

This really makes me so sick in my tummie. How people could be so wrong towards another race. I believe they are been’ wrong to judge somebody. Did they even look at the facts. Why do the white kids get off and dont get jail time, but the black kids do. What is really wrong with are people these days. OMG it just makes me want to go over there and put the judge and jurors in prision……I SO AGREE WITH NATASHA ON THIS ONE “It is evident that AMERICA is Still BLIND to Racism. “

I’m extremly upset over this . It is evident that AMERICA is Still BLIND to Racism. We have this hatred against one another but yet everyone seems to forget that our sons and daughter of THIS country are DYING in IRAQ. CLEAN UP YOUR ACT IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY. Look at how we all were affected over 9/11/01. OR DID WE JUST Forget. HOW many people of all races were lost that day. If Those young black men are going to get this sentence those White kids deserve it too! What, WHAT MAKES THEM SO above the law or having respect for one another. All these kids were in the wrong. BUT, Above any of the kids . I’m disgusted with the superintendent , authorites , the Donkey Judge and Jurors that were on this case. May the heartache that you bring to these kids rest in your kids fate one day!!

I’m forwarding this to all the people I know. We can’t allow bigotry against children. That principal need his/her license revoked. Why doesn’t the federal authorities get involved.

I wasn’t going to read this post at first, because miscarriage of justice always makes me angry. And I was right, this makes me so angry. But thanks for posting it, Jane. I need to know what’s going on outside my comfortable cocoon.

Thanks for sharing this, Jane.

Like others, I had no idea this had happened, though I must admit to largely ignoring the news. Reading this made me feel sick and saddened. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.

Oh now this is just plain wrong. I can’t condone the violence on either side, but hell, this is just plain wrong on so many levels. Makes you sick.
