after reading everything people have commented... I now feel dumber. everyone who has commented has made something racist out of it, Jena six should not be about race whatsoever!

racism still exists today and this is an example, but if 6 white teens did this to a black man they would be delt with quickly! I am in no way racist at all, in fact I am mixed, but if people want racism to end (which will never really, in all actuality) then people need to quit bringing RACE into things or punishing people for what they did and not the color of their skin!

Try and do some real research before you go popping off at the mouth. If the town of Jena is so racist, then how come there has not been a fight in Jena between a black and white since those six got arrested. All that has been done for those six future inmates is for nothing. They can't stay out of trouble. They are stupid and anybody that supports them is being taken for a ride.

That Robert Bailey POS moved to Columbus GA and just received a hardship grant to play football for Shaw High School. Why was he allowed to leave Jena LA while on bond?

I dont get it so some kids hang rope from a tree offend the black community wich I understand is a insult and should not have happend in the first place. But then the black kids beat the shit out of someone and say we want justice am I the only one who see's irony in this?

What are you talking about? YES, it WAS a private party. Were you there? Have you followed the case closely from the begining? It was a RENTED place with a INVITATION only party. YOU are the one talking out of your ass on this.They were NOT protecting themselves. THey are criminals, some of whom have long records and are feared in their own neighborhoods. There was no defense a all in sneaking a lone guy from behind with OVER 6 people.

hmm sounds like a great first hand account... NOT, i guess you were there or something. youre not stating facts. "private party" nope...it might have turned "private" as soon as the Black boys showed up, but it was a set up. i stand by my previous statement. they were protecting themselves in a city that has no justice.

"he was definiently envolved in a fight at a party the same night he got beat up"No he wasn't. He's not even accused of that. And the fight was 2 or 3 days earlier, not that night. It was another guy named Justin involved in that. Not Barker.BTW, it was 4 black kids trying to crash a private party. Of course they weren't allowed to enter. They weren't invited. Other black people were, but not these thugs. No one has ever said Justin Barker was at that party. It was Justin Sloan.

lol. i would have to advise you to take your own advice, read a true version of what happened... the white kid wasnt beat up for no reason. he was definiently envolved in a fight at a party the same night he got beat up(he was never proven to be involved in the noose incident). he didnt want one of the blk kids to enter so he started threatening him, other white friends of his joined in so the blk kid was sadly out numbered. the blk kids were simply fighting bk 4 all the things that occured. |
