To those who don't know the story here is a basic outline 6 african american boys were involved in a school brawl in Jena Louisiana. The fights started because some of their white schoolmates were hanging lynching nooses in trees at the school and otherwise pestering the black teenagers. The fight(s) resulted in black eyes for the white boys. The black kids were arrested and placed on trial for 2nd degreee attempted murder among other charges which can amount in up to 100 years in prison. Some of the boys have already been convicted. The boys were unarmed and did not do any life threatening damage to the boys who they were "attempting to murder". Please do not sit idly by as this injustice is carried out in your own country.

yup... that was extremely unfair. it's soo sad that it still happens
i dont know why racism is such a deal with people. im not racist and i cant understand why people are. im definatly signing!
Thank you for being proactive in making a change. It is terrible that the law is being used as a weapon. People are racist because they have been brainwashed. Those people have been conditioned to hate people before they know anything about them. The worst part is that people are still instilling this in their children.
