No one has done a conclusive study to determine what the percentage is. You may be right, and I may be right.

The innocent boys were drunken testerone filled, athletic jocks of the college age and only innocent in that they probably did not rape or kidnap anyone. Their behavior was as irresponsible as could be. I hope the parents of these kids have impressed upon them how unwise that kind of behavior is.

There are black people that I have talked to who think like me, that a majority of the black population is racist. It gets really complicated as to just what a racist is and we could probably debate the point all day long.

I have never heard one word from any black leader about the heroic sacrifice of the hundreds of thousands of dead white union soldiers that resulted in the freeing of the slaves. There is no nation in history that has let so much of its own blood to free a different race, different culture etc. Louis Farakhan should get down on his knees and publicly thank God for their sacrifice.
It is entirely racist, in my viewpoint, of anyone whose ancestors were freed under the conditions of the civil war,not to acknowledge thanks.
As to punishment of whites, the entire white slave owning power structure was ruthlessly destroyed along with killing off much of the slave owning population. Ever hear of the song "Marching through Georgia" or reconstruction?

PS I really do not like the Klan, the Klan kind of ruined it for us all by spewing so much hatred.

I do not disagree with your expressed opinions about race and racism, in post. I've seen and heard much the same.

But, having followed this case from onset, I disagree that the Duke boys were "drunken testosterone filled, athletic jocks". Yes, there were alcoholic beverages present. I've seen not an iota of evidence which suggests the boys were drunk. I've seen ample evidence that CGM was not of a sober bearing whether results from drugs and/or a combination of drugs/pills.

Frankly, and IME, I've seen much more violence coming from children in the K-12 levels of over-prescribed ritilin-like drugs; but hardly the outcry from "community" members over such erratic behaviors in the young.

Secondarily, I find it silly of those who wish to place the blame squarely on "jocks who drink". lol. As most college administrators posit: The college levels are a place for inquiry. And deep research. One could just as readily posit the Duke boys were following that prescribed mantra to a T. Should the same "morally outraged" writers opine upon students who engage in trashing pro-Republican signs and offices during elections? Not a word, ever. Do they opine upon those who block traffic just to make a "social justice" statement? No. Do they ever stand up for those students in politically correct classrooms who are grade-punished and/or vilified in classrooms? No.

Silly is as silly does.

If CGM had not made up these heinous lies, no one anywhere would have known or commented upon "jocks drinking". It's just a stupid out for the pretend moral "outrage-ives".

The Klan was about - power and money. The NAACP is no different. To fool the simples into believing it was about "skin color": "Pay attention to the pot; but not the kettle".

It's newer name is "by any means necessary"; and finally, aptly coined.
