I can see that you haven't spent too much time in the South...
Maybe you need a quick refresher...
In 1979 there was a planned, legal and non-violent civil rights demonstration in Greensboro, NC...
Redneck Nation (klan + Nazis) decided to set up an ambush and shot into the demonstration killing 5 demonstrators and wounding others... How many of rednecks were charged???
Give up???
Zero...
Don's 10:51am post tells it like it is... I know... I worked was working pretty much exclusively with black people when that occurred... I know how black people feel here in the South... Eugene Robinson, who grew up in South Carolina, has written about it... It ain't some figment of someone's imagination...
