black activists (right) - who have made it a badge of racial pride to insist that there shall be no justice, no peace unless these presumed (and evidently) innocent white men are found guilty.

Here is where the uncanny similarity of the situations between us and Duke ends. I knew at the time and we know now we would have a fair and impartial jury in the County of St. Louis. I do not believe that the Duke boys will be afforded that comfort.
My last and final concern is that they obtain a fair and impartial jury (whether it is of their peers may be impossible). There are remedies if they do not, however, I will then say unending prayers for their families that they are strong enough and have the financial resources to obtain justice. It really comes down to how much justice you can pay for (don't flame me Jezzie).
