Call me crazy, but I can''t understand what the big deal is? A group of 6 thugs beat the heck out of a kid and they get arrested. End of story. It doesn''t make one whit of difference why they beat him, that isn''t even relevant, it''s the fact that they laid a single finger on the kid. That is called assault and there is no excuse under God''s earth or man''s laws for this behavior.

They should all serve time for their animal acts.

people need to be informed of the entire story before they make a*& of themselves protesting.
Why were new orleans colleges (xavier, dillard) allowing a ''group'' to come in and bus the students to a ''field trip'' ''as long as they held our signs'' ''you will get credit for being in school''. Just making the crowd look bigger than it really should have been. Shame on you mr sharpton!

That''s right there are two standards of justice in this country. When it comes to black beating a white the blacks get off every time. If not they yell and scream race until the justice system bows to them and lets them off. These kids are guilty of a hate crime and should be tried as any white who has beaten a black. They should be in jail. No matter how much you are provoked nothing excuses violence towards another because you can''t keep your anger in check. The nooses were wrong, they did not warrant almost beating a white kid to death.

LA had better do the right thing. The state will never get another dime from the rest of this country and shouldn''t. It is a racist against whites state, and during Katrina many whites stuck in the dome were also beaten by blacks.

The Duke boys should be suing Sharpton and Jackson, why aren''t they???
