Thread Name: BS: The Jena 6 Controversy
Subject: RE: BS: The Jena 6 Controversy
The Rodney King riots were the inevitable result of justice
denied. You can push a people only so far. Okay, so how about
another example. 1968. The inner cities.

What do I know of what passes for 'justice' in Jena? Only what
I've read in the numerous articles, which strongly suggest that there
is one justice for the white man, another for the black man, and both
are administered and/or controlled by the white man.

It seems to me that in a place like Jena, we don't know much of
anything, because the truth is bent to the purposes of the
racist establishment.

In such an environment, 'truth' is elusive.
