I'm not talking about OJ, because, as far as I'm concerned, he's guilty. What I am saying is that "people of the ebony hue" tend not to get treated as fairly in court as others. History has proven this time and again. For example, Rubin Carter, the great heavyweight (The Hurricane) and his imprisonment for murder. I'm not sure how things are where you live and I'm not trying to make this an issue of race. Michael Jackson hasn't been a black man since Beat It (I keed, I keed). But seriously, down here in Texas, thats very much the case and the color line is as thick as the great wall, Basick (that was a playful pun since you said you were Chinese... nevermind). Acid, I just wanted to know where you going with that comment. TouchMyMonkey, I just wanted to let you know that it is true and, unfortunately, it is like that. OJ- Guilty Kobe- Innocent R. Kelly- Guilty Michael Jackson- Yes he's messed up in the head but any inappropiate activity with a child makes him guilty. |

What I am saying is that "people of the ebony hue" tend not to get treated as fairly in court as others. History has proven this time and again. Statistics also proves that crimes are more often committed by"people of the ebony hue". I don't think it's "a societal injustice". If you can prove that Blacks are treated like they are guilty before proven innocent in a court house, in other words, the Black man was discriminated because of his color, then I can do no more than agree with you. But until then, what you say doesn't make sense. Keep in mind that I prefer an examples post civil rights movement era. I do not doubt that they exist, but I'm interested in how many cases you can come up with that can justify what you say. This will be a learning experience for me. |
