2. I WORK FOR A LIVING, AND AM NOT ABLE TO TAKE TIME OFF TO GO ON A POLITICAL STATEMENT, RACIST GENERATED, SMALL MINDED, HATE FILLED TAR AND FEATHERING THAT SEEMS TO ATTRACT BLACKS BY THE THOUSAND. YOU ARE ALWAYS CALLING US RACIST, THAT WE ARE KEEPING YOU DOWN. WHY DO YOU ALWAYS SEE RACISM IN EVERYTHING YET MAKE NO STEPS TO CORRECT IT. INDEED YOU YOURSELFS PUSH IT. YOU YOURSELFS, CONTINUE THE HATE AND RESENTMENT. YOU WONDER WHY PETERSBURG IS DYING, YOU WONDER WHY A VSU STUDENT CAN NOT GO INTO A LOCAL STORE OR RESTRAUNT WITHOUT CAUSING EVERYONE TO CHECK THIER POCKETBOOKS, WALLETS AND EVEN THEIR FAMILIES. HOME INVASIONS HAVE BEEN INCREASING FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. THE ONLY RESEAON ANYONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT NOW, IS THAT MR. GORDON (A BLACK MAN) WAS KILLED. WHY IS IT RIGHT IN ANY WAY FOR ANY ONE TO BE BEAT BY 6 PEOPLE, MALE OR FEMALE, WHITE OR BLACK, RICH OR POOR, JEW OR GENTILE. ONE THING I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THOSE OF YOU GOING ON THIS SHOW OF UNITIY, ON YOUR WAY BACK TO VIRGINIA ASK THE BUS DRIVER TO STOP BY DUKE UNIVERSITY AND SEE HOW THOSE GUYS ARE DOING. THEY HAVE BEEN CLEARED IN A COURT OF LAW EVEN THOUGHT THE PRESS AND THE PROSCECUTER AND THE LOCAL NAACP CONVICTED THEM BEFORE ANY EVIDENCE WAS PRESENTED. AND THEY HAVE YET BEEN TOLD BY THAT LYING, TRASHY WHORE THAT SHE WAS SORRY, OR EVEN THE SCHOOL ITSELF HAS SAID ANYTHING. DONT YOU DARE TELL ME ABOUT THE RACISM IN THIS WORLD WHEN WE AS WHITE PEOPLE ARE BEING MADE TO FEEL WE CAN NOT SAY OR DO ANYTHING, TO RUDE, THUGGISH, GANSTA LIKE PEOPLE IN FEAR OF BEING SUED AND LOOSING SIMPLY BECAUSE WE ARE WHITE. THE COURTS AND PRESS WILL HANG US OUT. WHAT REALLY MAKES ME SICK IS NOW YOU AS BLACKS ARE SAYING THAT THE HISPANICS ARE THE NEW RACIST, YET THEY ARE BEING ROBBED AND ASSAULTED BY BLACKS AT AN UNREAL RATE. I ONLY HOPE THAT I AM AROUND TO SEE THE NEXT CIVIL WAR THAT IS GOING TO COMPLETLY YOUR FAULT AS A RACE. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO BLAME ANYONE BUT YOURSELFS.

3. All I am going to say to you is…go back and read the article about Jena 6 and you will get your fact straight about who beat who. For a hunderds yearsl…of course you will say you are not the blame but your fore father would to use our black women for belly warms to have their babies. Well, that shit is in the past and we are not going to be your stepping stones. You will go down every time you cross a black person. Whites have ruled the world for 300 years and the next 300 will be the Blacks turn. Yes you right. That is why the world is in the shape it is today because dumm asses like you are running it.

4. I, as a proud black man, ask nothing of anyone (white/black/etc.). Those that are getting on a bus to do nothing more than to further prolong racism (that is only being kept alive by black people) only proves that we still rely on the white man to get us out of a jam when we ourselves put ourself in that predicament. Sometimes, I give the blacks way too much credit. Yes, I read the Jena articles over and over, and the venture to Jena by bus only proves that you’re trying to justify six people senselessly assaulting one. Once “blacks” quit seeing in black and white, so will others. I am proudly from Louisiana, and not too far from Jena, but I’ll be damned if I would show my face in Jena to support some individuals who dug their own whole, and further embarass my race. Farrakhan, Jackson, and any other race hustlers participating in this venture, are to be repudiated for they will only perpetuate this problem by stirring up hatred and applauding moral corruption. Blacks are obligated to help themselves and not depend on the government to care for them. What part of Africa did you come from? Ask that to an “African American” with some silly african name. Such as the response “We are winning” (above)…shows just how immature some are. Blaming people’s forefathers? How stupid can one person be? No, because of most black’s education…step in front of the average white man, and you’ll go down. It’s not about being physical…it’s who’s smart enough to get back up and further his education to have a better life in this country… not blame someone else like the white man just because you didn’t attempt to become all you could be, blaming your upbringing, etc. I’m proud to be my own black man, depending on only myself; not some white man to give me a hand-out, and if he doesn’t, jump on some bus to prove just how pathetic and racist I still am. Quit looking for excuses, begging for hand-outs, and relying on others to deal with your reprocussions.

5. WE ALL NEED JESUS! HE is the only one who can fix this issue. I just pray for us ALL… white, black, hispanic, asian, EVERYONE. LET GO AND LET GOD!! I sympathize for the young boys very much so. I dont think it was right what they did, nor was it right what the other students part. THEY ALL WERE WRONG AND HANDLED IT THE WRONG WAY!! And what makes it even worse is that the adults in this case aren’t behaving any better than the students. This is all the outcome of IGNORANCE on both sides. I just pray for this world, I really do. Everything about it is twisted and backwards. Everyone wants to point the finger but never look at themselves. I mean honestly its sad what this world is coming to….some things never change!

6. Durk, that was a good statement but next time take time to spell check. I agree with you to an extent. We (black communities) always want to blame others for our downfalls. However, with the Jena 6, it’s not about the downfall it’s about over exertion of power. The white kids only got detention for hanging a noose and the black kids get attempted murder charges over a school yard fight. You with your higher education should know that doesn’t sound right. I am sure everyone who rights these little entries will have a different opinion but before you get on the site and slander blacks or whites, know the facts. The people (black and white) aren’t rallying because the guys are blacks being treated badly they are rallying because the charges (that have been reduced) were extreme. I can say that in the Great State Of Louisiana, if a black and a white committ the same crime the white will get a lesser charge. For those who are rallying supporting blacks who have been mistsreated by America is great just keep it peaceful. And for the white who feel they are only supporting black start your own white coalition and fight injustices of whites that get into situations such as the Jena 6.

7. what a double standard i think the charges should be upgraded as a hate crime because if 6 white kids beat up 1 black kid sharpton and jackson would demand it

8. Let me start with this……..its only but so long that you are backed up into a corner that space becomes a virtue. The statement simply means the start and plight of this case was simply overbearing events, unbalanced justice and sick and tired of being sick and tired created a school altercation. Reflect back to your school yard fights was there ever attempted murder charges on your school yard fights. As you sit with a skin of color so eloquently and have the pure ordasity to be comfortable with where you are in life you remind me of the way I am sure our ancestors must have viewed the house slaves who just want to get in where you fit in but it’s funny you would have never been priviledged to fit in if it were not for the civil rights movement but forgive me based on your lack of intelligence I would assume you would just as well continue to get to the back of the bus because you would just like to be on the bus it wouldn’t matter thelocation of the seat. God bless us that you (Durk)were not apart of the era that actually had to do something because you would have continued to be the with the likes of your charecteristic as a person just wanting to get by instead of yearning to get ahead. You Jaquan and Bizzy would be the one keeping us black individuals in line with the whip at bay. I pray you and your loved ones never have to endure any type , form or fashion of injustice because actually we would probably still assist you……..Darkness shines when you least expect it but the glimmer of hope last forever

   I Love you anyway
   Nakeya
   Dedicated to Durk, Bizzy & Jaquan

9. LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT “LADY M”, YOU ARE COMPARING HANGING OF A PEICE OF ROPE TO TRYING TO KILL SOMEONE BY THIER HANDS. YOU ARE TRUELY THE IGNORANT ONE. A ROPE DOES NOTHING, ITS A TOOL. ITS USE TO SAFE LIVES WAY MORE THEN TAKE THEM. BUT OF COURSE YOU AS A PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS BE LOOKING FOR THE DOWN SIDE TO IT. HOW A ROPE OR CHAIN OR BRAND CONTROLED YOU AS A PEOPLE FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS. I AM NATIVE AMERICAN, CHEROKEE , I AM MARRIED TO A BEAUTIFUL TRU BLACK WOMAN, NOT AFRICAN AMERICAN, BLACK AMERICAN WOMAN. SHE IS A DOCTOR, HER FATHER IS A FACTORY WORKER IN HOPEWELL, HER MOTHER IS A HOMEMAKER, THEY PUT HER THROUGH MEDICAL SCHOOL, NO HELP FROM THE NAACP, FROM GRANTS, OR USE OF RACE RELATED ASSISTANCE. SHE DID IT WITH HARD WORK ON THE PART OF HER PARENTS WHO WORK ON THERE ON GOT THEIR JOBS ON THIER OWN. NO ONE BUT YOURSELFS ARE KEEPING YOU DOWN, NO ONE WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO HOLD ME DOWN. EVEN THOUGH I AM MARRIED TO HER I DO NOT AND HAVE NOT EVER HEARD HER OR ANY OF HER FAMILY BLAME ANYTHING ON WHITES JEWS OR ANYONE ELSE. HER GREAT GRAND MOTHER WAS A SLAVE ON A FARM IN SOUTHAMPTON, BUT GUESS WHAT WHEN THEY WERE FREED THAT IS OVER WITH. NOTHING DONE TO HER FAMILY THEN CONTROLS ANYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO THEM SINCE. I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE MIND SET OF MOST OF THE BLACKS I MEET, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO HARBOR SUCH BAD FEELLINGS TOWARDS WHITES OR ANY ONE NOT BLACK. AGAIN IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO LET THE PAST GO, YOU ARE STILL LIVING IN IT. YOU TALK ABOUT THOSE THAT ARE THERE TO DO SOMETHING, TELL ME WHAT ARE YOU DOING EXCEPT SHOWING YOU HAVE ALL THE TIME TO PROTEST INSTEAD OF MAKING YOURSELF BETTER BY EDUCATION OR WORKING. IM TIRED OF PAYING FOR YOUR KIDS TO GO TO SCHOOL, SKIP CLASSES AND GET PISSED WHEN THEY GET EXPELLED. AND PARENTS LIKE YOURSELFS THE CONTIUE TO BLAME THE SCHOOLS WHEN THEY CALL YOU TO COME FOR A MEETING ABOUT A FIGHT OR THREAT YOU KIDS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN. ITS THE SCHOOLS FAULT, THEY SHOULD DO MORE TO PROTECT OR UNDERSTAND YOUR CHILD NEVER MIND THAT YOUR LITTLE CRUMB CATCHER IS SPOILED ROTTEN AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD “THE MAN” OWES YOU. NO ONE OWES ANYONE A DAMN THING. WE ARE OUR OWN PEOPLE. WHAT MY PARENTS DID WAS THEM WHAT YOUR PARENTS DID WAS THEM NOT US. AS FAR AS JENA, THEY ARE THUGS, THEY USED FORCE TO ATTEMPT TO PROVE SOMETHING, THE ONLY THING THEY PROVED, THEY ARE THUGS, NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS. FORCE IS NOTHING BUT FEAR. AGAIN I BRING UP THE DUKE GUYS, NO ONE HAS STILL SAID ANYTHING ABOUT HOW THEY WERE TREATED, BUT I GUESS THEY DONT MATTER, THEY WERE WHITE REDNECKS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF A POOR WORKING BLACK WOMAN RIGHT. WRONG SHE WAS NOTHING MORE THEN A WHORE, WHO WAS DANCING AND STRIPPING FOR MONEY AND ACCORDING TO THE PERK KIT TAKEN, DNA FROM SEVERAL MALES NONE OF WHICH WERE ANY OF THE ACCUSED WAS FOUND. WONDER HOW THAT GOT THERE. COULDNT HAVE BEEN FROM SEX WITH ANYONE WITH A FIVE SPOT. BUT AS ALWAYS BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK, AND THEY WERE WHITE, NOTHING WILL BE SAID NOW THAT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT SHE WAS LYING, NEVER WOULD HAD GUESS THAT SINCE HER OWN FRIEND DEBUNKED HER STATEMENTS. LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF YOUR OWN FORCED SLAVERY ON YOUR OWN PEOPLE. AS FOR STARTING OUR OWN COALITION, NEVER WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE IT WOULD BE SHUT DOWN BEFORE IT STARTED AS BEING TOTALLY RACIST. JUST LIKE WE CANT HAVE A MRS. WHITE, OR MRS. NATIVE AMERICAN OR MRS. JEWISH AMERICA. WE HAVE BLACK FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION BUT WE CANT HAVE WHITE FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION, WE CANT HAVE AN ORGANIZATION OF WHITE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS BUT THERE IS NOBLE ( NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF BLACK LAW ENFORCEMENT) WHY IS THAT. ANY GUESS IN THIS WOULD BE APPRECIATED. WHAT IS THE DIFFIERENCE BETWEEN THE BLACK WOMAN HELD HOSTAGE BY THE SIX WHITE FOLKS IN HER TRAILIER AND BEAT FOR A WEEK, THAT IS A HATE CRIME, BUT A BUNCH OF BLACK PUNK THUGS BEAT A “WHTE TRASH” IS JUST ASSAULT, WHY CAN BLACK NOT BE CHARGED WITH HATE CRIMES. EVEN WHEN THAT IS ALL THAT YOU AS A RACE CONTIUE TO SPEW, IS HOW THE WHITE PEOPLE WILL GO DOWN WHITE PEOPLE WILL NOT BE IN CHARGE THE NEXT 200 YEARS. I LOVE MY WIFES FAMILY AS MUCH AS MY OWN, AND WOULD DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT THEM AND THEIRS, AS FOR THE REST OF YOU BRING IT OWN. SPECIAL NOTE TO DURK, CONTINUE TO SPEAK MY FRIEND WHEN I HEAR FROM YOUNG BLACK MEN LIKE YOURSELF, IT MAKES ME FEEL THAT NO ALL WANT THINGS TO BE HANDED TO THEM, BIZZY YOUR RIGHT COMPLETELY AND NAKEYA , AS STATED ABOVE MY FAMILY WOULD NOT ASK FOR YOUR HELP AND EVEN IF WE DID, BECAUSE WE ARE A MIXED MARRIAGE I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE THE MAJORITY OF THE BLACK WORLD WOULD BRUSH US OFF, AS I SAID , I TAKE CARE OF MY OWN. AND IT WILL NOT BE WITH A WHIP. AS FAR AS THE BUS ISSUE, I DONT KNOW MANY BLACK YOUTHS TODAY THAT WOULD HAVE THE GUTS TO DO WHAT MRS. PARKS DID OR ANYTHING LIKE IT UNLESS THEY WERE IN A MOB. AS LONG AS YOU WHO WORRY MORE ABOUT HAVING AN AFRICAN SOUNDING NAME THEN WHAT YOUR TRUE LINEAGE IS I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR FROM YOUR IGNORANCE. LAST POINT, IN MY PROFESSION, I HAD THE CHANCE TO WORK ON A MISSING PERSON, A CHILD 6 YEAR OLD BLACK FEMALE, HER OWN MOTHER COULD NOT SPELL HER NAME CORRECTLY, SHE SAID THAT HER GRANDMOTHER HAD NAMED HER AND THEY SHE NEVER REALLY NEW HOW GRAND MA SPELLED IT. THIS IS A TRUE STORY, IF YOU ARE GOING TO NAME YOUR CHILDREN KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT, DAMN!!!!!!

10. Jaquan – it is considered yelling to post in all caps. You can make your point without doing so. Thanks!

11. ALSO LADY M, IF ITS NOT A BLACK ISSUE, WHY DID EVERY BLACK PERSON FOR THE MOST PART WOMEN, SAY THAT THEY WERE GOING TO JENA TO LET THE YOUNG BLACK MEN KNOW THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE TOLERATED ANY LONGER, IT IS EMBARASSING TO WATCH YOU ON THE NEWS FOOTAGE LEAVING, THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BUY FOOD OR USE ANY OF THE SERVICES IN JENA A FORM OF PROTEST. TELL ME ONE THING DID YOU ALL SLEEP ON THE BUSES, I’M GUESSING NOT!!!!!. I HAVE ALSO SENT AN EMAIL TO THE KISS RADIO STATION SINCE THEY SENT SOMEONE DOWN THERE BUT SURE AS I AM THAT NO ONE HERE WILL RESPOND TO THIS I DOUBT THEY WILL EITHER

12. Um, Jaquan – please stop using all caps. It is just plain rude, and rudeness is not something I tolerate on my blog. Thanks!

13. Durk, are you serious?!?!?! or, are you really white??? Now I will as a black female admit it is not right for 6 individuals to beat up one person. But when that one person leaves the fight with little more than a black eye was the ATTEMPTED MURDER CHARGE really called for? And in reading in all the arcticles did you notice how the noose incident went by with no repercussions? I guess its ok, that your ancestors were hanged many years ago… Matter of fact it is so OK that they can make fun of the whole ordeal now!!! I think, no I know you’re lying, you can’t be from the south and I’m seriously doubting your BLACK because if you were you would know where we as AFRICAN AMERICANS are coming from and you would realize this is an injustice!!!!

14. im just amazed that so many people are making this situation about their own narrow-minded asses, that they fail to see the moral of this jena-6 story. no one is asking for handouts , only fairness. this system of justice has been one-sided for far to long. blacks get beated whites get a pat on the head that says good job when whites get beaten blacks go to trial to fight for rights and life. the bottom line is enough is enough and no, we will not take it any more. and bless you blacks that have made good lives for yourselves living under the ASSumption that those whites you kiss up to see you as their equals just continue believing it while the rest of us MAKE it happen. think GOD for the sharptons and jacksons and the michael baisdens of our world that keep it real. so when we get to jena no , we are not blaming anyone or asking for handouts only fairness that fits the charges how about that you white racist pigs and blacks who assume they’re getting a free pass for not rocking the boat

15. i am sorry that once again you feel offended this time by simple size of letter on a blog. it is so funny to me to see “educated” blacks that refer to themselfs as african this or african that. i seriuosly doubt any of you could live in africa now, you have a hard enough time living in america that seems to be so oppressing to you. i will try to remember that you prefer small prent, but not once have i used insults such as narrow minded asses, racist pigs but i guess i am not educated enough to speak in your ebonic languages. and still after all of these times i still see nothing about how the duke students were accused and treated by the local black people or why did sharpton and jackson go to their aid if what they and as you have said you are only after the truth and fairness in justice. how can any of you with a straight face sit here and say that those of your own kind that have done well for themselfs such as my wife, are kissing up, did you not have someone read you my entire statement, did you not understand that she did it from hard working parents, no goverment assistance, no hand outs, and not once have i heard her say if only i was white i could get so much farther. what i love the most is the fact that you as a race can sit there and accusse the whites of doing so much to your people. you are the only ones you have to blame for any of it, i guess you highly educated people still think the civil war was about slavery too. as for african american, how many generations would you have to go through to find someone that indeed is from africa in your famliy, and when you think of how bad it is here, think of the lease car sitting in your drive, think of the loans you have taken out at these car / check loan places that are doing nothing but keeping you down, think about the jobs you have only because you are not only black but a black female ( never mind you cant type ) and think about the state jobs that you have and promotions that you get simply because you’re a black female. finally think of how if you cant get those jobs because youre simply too lazy for that, you will sit back and spit out babies whose daddies you are sure of just so you can get one more check for them. have some pride in yourselfs and your race, dont keep letting the white man think they will be ok as long as they keep handing you the crumbs, demand more, but to do this you have to pick yourself up quit saying poor poor me, and be human not a bunch of rude, non english speaking, pants hanging off your butts, money barrowing pitiful third class citizens that dont deserve the rights that you do have. MS. Page ( i know how you all like to be refered to as MRS, and MISS like its something important ) hope i have not offended you with by rants but i am tired of being ashame to call you americans of any kind.
