I think it was kbp6969 who whined. Here's another one s/he didn't like:
"It was Cash Michael, a black writer, who said that the "African-American community" of Durham will want to know why there will be no trial. So, you see, it's Cash Michael who lumped them altogether in the first place, not I. I'm just pointing out some shortcomings in his thoughts along those lines.
And what is all this about getting threads shut down anyway? Why would anybody shut down the thread? The topic of the thread and the other Cash Michael thread both relate to certain racial aspects of the case and the black population of Durham. Doesn't it follow that those ideas would be the discussion underway in the thread? Or are we supposed to discuss potted plants and recipes in threads where the opening article is about race? Just wondering."
LOL! You got kicked out for what?
Stating logical, well-reasoned responses to someone with whom you disagree?
God help us, these are the people who salivate to sit on a jury in a criminal trial.

"Parents say goodbye as freshmen arrive at N.C. Central"
BY GREGORY PHILLIPS : The Herald-Sun, Aug 16, 2006 : 10:34 pm ET
DURHAM -- Forget nervous students. Wednesday's move-in day for freshmen
on the N.C. Central University campus was much more nerve-racking for
parents having to let go. -----

DURHAM -- Kasib Abdullah had tried everything.
Two years into his battle against the women he claimed were prostitutes
haunting the corner in front of his restaurant, Abdullah said he had few options
left but to take the situation into his own hands. ------

"Sheriff's deputies descend on East Durham"
By BriAnne Dopart : The Herald-Sun, Aug 15, 2006 : 10:23 pm ET
DURHAM -- If you drove through or passed through parts of East Durham
on Tuesday afternoon, you might have thought the city was under siege.
If you live in one of the houses along Harvard Avenue near Guthrie Avenue
where sheriff's deputies conducted a large-scale operation for several hours
in the late afternoon, you might have just been grateful for the presence
of law enforcement.
Sheriff's deputies descended upon the District 1 neighborhood for what
was in essence a license checkpoint. Deputies walked up to every car
passing through the neighborhood and asked drivers for identification.
Those with active warrants were arrested. -----
