You gave no real "facts" at all, just slanted opions as your type of "facts".
Those white racist put up the hang-man's noose as a threat to the African American students,
Those white racist should be held accountable, however the person they attacked was not involved in that incident. So would it be ok if the jena six sought you out and brutally attacked you?
and the law does not protect the black students so they had little choice but to accept the wrong or take justice into their own hands.
I say what they did was noble and justified since the law does not protect them from the white racist.
I do say that it is a fairly safe assumption to believe the people were smart enough to know for whom it was making the racist threats against them.
The person they beat up had nothing to do with the noose. Answer this. Would you feel it acceptable if a person of color came up to you and pounded you into the ground, putting you in the hospital because of someone else of your race's crime?
The fact that the law (per racist) requires a white witness and a white testimony is not acceptable for me.
How do you claim to know their motivation better than the investigators?
Since you started this thread with baseless and outrageous racist and bigoted comments then it was your place to give a link or some real reference to your source but you give none.
Jena 6 link HERE.
I suspect that the poster above expects everyone to just accept his perverted and racist story just because he is white and speaking against the blacks so it simply must be true - it is NOT.
And he has the gull to boast of his many black "friends" except on here those are completely invisible black friends, and I am just as certain that all those invisible black friends agree with his racist first post as they give their invisible postings and as we all read his invisible link to the factual source of his racist info which also happens to be invisible.
The reality of the Jena 6 story is that the laws would not protect our fellow citizens and they had to take the law into their own hands to protect and defend themselves against the whites and their racist hateful threats.
The author of this thread might not like being called a bigot but his words are just racist bigotry.
That is simply not a reasonable deduction. When whites run their mouths by cheering on the racist crimes then those whites do share the guilt.
It is reasonable that the people knew who was threatening them and that they did have motivation for the assult.
You are mis-representing the case as if the assult had no reasoning at all and that the racist hang-man's noose had no meaning.
That logic might work with racist cops and the bigots on this thread but not with honest people.
And when whites "talk nice" while sharing in the profits of the racist crimes then retaliation is justified.
I do not approve of whites mis-using the law as a way to hide their white hatred for others.
The above is a baseless assumption of motive, denied by many investigators and the participants, and never claimed by the perpetrators of the later crime as a motive for their crime.
A pointless assault? That happens a lot. Congratulations on recognizing reality.
What did ANYONE, anyone AT ALL, (outside of lawyers) profit from this senseless assault?
The Jena Six & Black History Month
"(S)ome Americans do not understand why the sight of a noose causes such a visceral reaction," declared President Bush to the White House gathering for Black History Month.
As The Washington Post rushed to remind us, President Bush was "responding to news coverage of such episodes as the 'Jena Six.'"
It appears that President Bush and the Washington Post agrees with what I have been saying. 
So, you believe in taking more stringent actions than the original crime, against someone who was uninvolved with the original crime, with the original crime not being listed as a reason for the action, is a good tack to take?
Now I add that I say the Jena Six were actually fulfilling their Constitutional right under the US Second Amendment link it HERE, in that it is not just a right to bear arms but it includes the people's right to defend themselves when the gov is inept or corrupt or incompetant as it was in that case.
The "law" was in fact protecting the white racist and their bigotries and their threats (the hang-man's noose) so the Jena 6 took the law into their own hands as the 2nd amendment promotes.
I thought you were against the Iraq war. :shrug:
Just because President Bush and the Washington Post agree with me on the Jena 6, 
Got any breaking news to report on your job search?
then that does not mean we must agree on every other thing too.
Duh.
The situation you described was one where people committed a crime on someone else. They committed the crime without having any mention of a previous crime committed against other people, BY other people. What about that makes any sense to you?
then that does not mean we must agree on every other thing too.
Duh.
Is it easier to ignore than accept reality for you, JImmy?
then that does not mean we must agree on every other thing too. Duh.
