You ever read about the trial of Scottsboro Boys in the 1930s? 9 black teen males ACCUSED of gang raping two white girls?
THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE CHARGE was more important than any facts. Eventually, and after a great deal of horror and false accusations, the girls recanted. They were "pressured" into these allegations but they "accused" the boys but only because they'd been doing something wrong. So, they blamed the black male teens.
It was wrong then, it is still wrong today.
But you go right on having a fun time not seeing yourself as a bigot and believing that the "seriousness of the charge" is more important than available facts.
Yesterday on the air, Greta more than once said that she was "down here" in Durham.
Apparently she considers New York City to be recognized as the standard geographic reference point.
"Again -- you are basing your 'logic' on the 'seriousness of the charge'"
Come again.
It's me, the guy who posted #9:
"the seriousness of the charge is only one consideration in determining bail"
Maybe you meant to reply to Jezebelle? She's the one who thinks that, given the seriousness of the charge, bail was set too high. So it's her "logic" that's based on the seriousness of the charge. I'm sure if you reply to her #9 and take her to task, she'll get the memo sooner or later.
