Tell me again how the law applies evenly to the high and the low of society?
Nifong's real mistake was picking on white boys of means.
Tell me again how the law applies evenly to the high and the low of society?
Sorry Kane, completely irrelevant. Any injustice done to your guy doesn't justify what happened to the Dukies.
To use your own words, "cry me a river."
So the author, Gregory Kane, thinks it is justifiable that innocent white men were being charged with rape, since it was a "payback" for someone else's false conviction? Gregory Kane is a racist, pure and simple.
"Nobody feels sorry for these rich white boys. Even if they didn't rape her, they need to be punished as payback for their ancestors raping black slave women hundreds of years ago. It's only fair."
Man, this guy is really disappointed that the charges weren't true. He'd be happy to see a black woman raped by white guys if it furthered his grievance-driven agenda. What a prince.
How did they "get off easy?"
They were falsely accused by a woman and their lives have been wrecked, all because a prosecuter wanted to get re-elected. I feel bad for Calvin Johnson but just because he was shafted doesn't mean these boys should pay for it.
The author of this article should have written about how both DA's abused their power to railroad innocent people, that's the real issue. The author should be happy that these three boys didn't suffer the same fate as Calvin Johnson... but he's not because race is coloring his judgement.
I thought this writer was going to bring up the earlier names of people this same stripper claimed raped her in previous years.
Instead he plays the race card and says "good" that some Americans had their civil rights violated and their lives trashed (it has set back their educational path).
He clearly does not like white people if he can say "good".
Sure. Just like setting OJ free was "payback".
The answer is to fight injustice...not propagate it.
"a village is missing an idiot" ping
That's liberal logic for you. It happened to some black guy 23 years ago, so it's okay if it happens to whitey.
A blatantly racist website. Lovely.
Ping for your black conservative list, should you deem it worthy.
Gregory Kane, doing the time warp, might revisit the "Scottsboro Boys" and if he is not so singularly and adversely affected, might see the eery resemblence of what was done to the Duke Players in the here now is precisely what was done to The Scottsboro Boys.
Yeah, like Susan Estrich.
That's a name, not "four reasons," you idiot.
I note Mr. Kane failed to quote Mr. Johnson as approving of continuing injustice as vengenace for his own mistreatment. I think 16 years being falsely imprisoned would make someone unwilling to have others suffer the same fate.
Yawn, another article supporting black payback.
Not surprising, this will be the attitude for the next few generations.
