This was the first time i saw commentary from a white man in the crowd. It’s amazing the things the choose not to show us in the states.

It’s pretty basic why he shouldn’t be punished. The white kids didn’t get punished did they? They started the entire situation. The kid that went to the Er for his “beating” went to a party the same night. He must’ve been in some serious pain to be having that much fun. I think people also overlook the fact that the original sentencing was for attempted murder. Some white man wanted that kid away for a long time and without reason. Maybe before you question it, you could read the entire story. CNN isn’t giving it to you. Educate YOURSELF.

Talat1 – Yeah. Unfortunately the news isn’t giving the full story, so there are a lot of people who don’t understand. I’ve gotten a few emails asking why anyone would care about these kids – I’m wondering if they actually listened to the show or did any research on their own.

Mychal Bell is still in jail because he can’t raise the bail money, which I believe is $90,000! We should be trying to raise the money to get him out on bail! Hasn’t he been in jail long enough?

I just want to say that being a native of louisiana, in St. Landry Parish, it’s time for a change. We as young african americans need to stand up for ourselves, and fight for our freedom, peace, and rights. If we don’t who will, cause we are the furture.

What I don’t understand: why are we saying that the j6 shouldn’t get punished?
