Dr. Alveda King, Pastoral Associate of Priests for Life and niece of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., commented today on the Jena Six case in Louisiana, where six African American high school students involved in a fight with white students have been charged with crimes that could send them to prison for decades. Critics of the prosecutions, citing racial segregation at the school and discriminatory prosecution of only the black students involved in the fight, are asking the Justice Department to investigate.
"The call to investigate the Jena Six prosecutions is legitimate," said Dr. King. "There's clear evidence in the case that officials need to examine for discriminatory practices, from the nooses strung from a tree that helped provoke the fight to the vast difference in the severity of treatment given to white and black participants."
"There's other evidence of racism in our nation, though, that also troubles me to the core and that also demands investigation," added Dr. King. "The abortion industry kills black babies at an alarmingly high and disproportionate rate, it situates its clinics primarily in minority neighborhoods, and it has eliminated one-quarter of the African American population. Abortionists don't wear hoods, but one has to wonder how the results of the abortion industry's practices would be much different if they did. Black babies are being denied their fundamental right to live and it's time to find out why the people who profit from abortion in this country seem to be targeting African Americans."

I’ve noticed that nobody denies that the six beat the crap out of a kid just because he was White. Has David Bowie offered to help pay the hospital bills?
"Involved in a fight with white students?" That's what they are calling 6 PUNKS beating on one kid?
Even when your own are racist, Doctor King? After all, fair’s fair.
“Ive noticed that nobody denies that the six beat the crap out of a kid just because he was White. Has David Bowie offered to help pay the hospital bills?”
6 against 1 is not a fight unless the 1 is Chuck Norris!
But, the media continues to call it a fight to keep from calling it what it really is: At best a beating, at worst, attempted manslaughter.
I’m bored with the Jena 6. The kid is out of the hospital, and I doubt that anybody was really trying to kill him. This story is about the fact that the sainted Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King’s niece is Pastoral Associate of Priests for Life, and an outspoken critic of abortion, particularly because it is a racist institution. I’d sure love to hear what the liberal media has to say about the good Reverend Doctor.
I don't believe that they snare young pregnant women and drag them inside, do YOU?
it situates its clinics primarily in minority neighborhoods,
You go where your customers are.
and it has eliminated one-quarter of the African American population.
I don't know about that stat, but there wouldn't be such a supply if there wasn't such a demand.

Guys there are any number of Jena 6 threads about what a bunch of hypocrites Jackson, Sharpton and their brain-dead sycophants are. That’s not the story here.
I've noticed a lot of this. Like when a bank is robbed, you never see the tellers getting charged let alone jail time. Prosecution is almost always one sided in assault cases, creating the idea that there is a "victim".
This needs to be looked into.
“Ive noticed that nobody denies that the six beat the crap out of a kid just because he was White.”
What! Are you insane! That can’t be! You know as well as everyone else that blacks cannot be racist, only whites. I strongly suggest you sign up for a government approved sensitivity training program immediatly. On the plus side, it will also be on the record and you will be one step ahead after Shrillary is president and it is mandatory. LOL!
So have these boys been charged with a hate crime?
If the six little thugs wanted to be racist without consequence they should have just recorded bigoted songs like Billy Idol. Make a catchy tune and spew your venom.

How horrible must it be to live life seeing conspiracy and racism at every turn? I honestly don’t know how many black versus white babies are killed. But I do know abortion is a business, and as such, the abortionists go to where their clients are. No one forces anyone to participate in this.
I also know that many of the black women I come in contact with have 3, 4, 5 as many as 7 kids. So, if whitey is trying to kill black babies, whitey is failing Dr. King.
The busses in Jena will be leaving shortly for Durham, NC to get the march going to save the three white boys falsly accused of raping the black stripper. Right?
“Guys there are any number of Jena 6 threads about what a bunch of hypocrites Jackson, Sharpton and their brain-dead sycophants are. Thats not the story here.”
Ok, enlighten me, what IS the story?
Huh Wait What?
“If the six little thugs wanted to be racist without consequence they should have just recorded bigoted songs like Billy Idol.”
Billy Idol made a bigoted song?
You mean “White Wedding”? That had nothing to do with race.
