Yes, where are all the white groups demonstrating against this hate crime?

Cowed, I’m sure.

No doubt these “alleged perpetrators”
had rough childhoods and should be released and helped to go back to school.\
Hang their sorry asses. Do it on commercial t.v. and make an example of their sorry lives.

Was this case reported in the MSM? I don’t remember hearing about it

Sorry, can't provide a direct link (hard facts from a controversial source)

I think there is a moratorium on the death penalty in TN because of concerns that it is “not humane.” How utterly ironic and sickeningly stupid. These kids suffered a death so depraved and vile. It shows what’s wrong with our society when some actually are concerned about the rapist/killers having to suffer if they are executed.

The headline is a bit surprising to me though. Most of these graphic details were already known. But not widely reported of course by the national media. Heaven forbid they reveal the ugly facts.

This article does not mention mutilation. Some of those stories have been discounted but I wonder if the real facts will come out. The dead man’s father says authorities told him the bodies were intact (except for his son being set on fire of course!) but later the prosecutor said the body had been mutilated. So where is the truth, I wonder. Again, perhaps the media are unwilling to say.

Sadly what you advocate will never happen. So there will never truly be justice in this case, even if the scumbags are ever executed. Only if there is a hell will they get what’s coming to them.

As far as their upbringing goes, I am sick of the criminal coddlers making excuses by saying they have to turn to crime because of poverty and lack of opportunity. None of them looked to be starving, and obviously they were not homeless as they had this house of horrors in which to commit their perverted acts. So how exactly were they driven to these vile acts of rape because of “poverty?” I could barf thinking about it.

Actually there’ve been white supremacist groups that have shown up in Knoxville to protest. Not many, though, and they’ve generally been ignored or shouted down by counter-protestors.

Forget the whole “hate crime” shtick. Those four deserve to die just for their actions, who cares about their motivation. Boyd is “only” being accused of hiding the lead murderer after the face, not being involved in the actual murder. So even if he gets convicted, he won’t ride the needle, he’ll just get a chunk of vacation time on the taxpayers of Tennessee.

Yes. Fox, CNN and MSNBC all ran stories on it. CNN did an hour on it last May. What difference does that make?

I don’t know how the families do it. They inspire me. I think you almost need superhuman strength and I don’t think I could handle it. Just like the folks in the Wichita trial several years ago. Not to mention countless others like it.

I agree. I don't know how they can do it. I would go frickin' insane! They would have to fry me for what I would do to those animals.

One black juror....

We'll have a hung jury, or an conviction eventually overturned on appeal.

The groundwork's already being laid in Louisiana.

Judge: Past grand jury selection processes were biased - Ruling could open door for court challenges of previous cases

All it takes is one liberal judge.

Atrocity. And should be called such.

This would be headline news, if the perpetrators had been white, and the victims black.

I am tired of the hypocrisy of liberalism. I have had enough. As far as I’m concerned, they should shut up and go to Hell.

Yes, as I said, white people have been cowed and intimidated.

It is a hate crime because kidnapping, rape, and murder are not all common occurances in a “robbery”. Even in a “robbery gone wrong” or a “robbery with no surviving witnesses”.

Nope, the liberal MSM treated this case with just cursory attention.

They had to be careful as to not inflame whitey!

The KKK showed up and offered their SUPPORT to the ATF/FBI/Government at Waco.

The side they chose then didn’t get slurred in the media. The media decides who’s right and who’s wrong and then what details to report, including the presence of supporters/detractors.

Precisely, remember the case of Elian Gonzalez?

The protesters in FLA were consistently derided and referred to as “mobs” in ALL mainstream media, daily!
