    We claim to live and die equal, the way we were born: we want this real equality or death; that’s what we need.
    And we’ll have this real equality, at whatever price. Unhappy will be those who stand between it and us! Unhappy will be those who resist a wish so firmly expressed.
    The French Revolution was nothing but a precursor of another revolution, one that will be bigger, more solemn, and which will be the last.

    Octavian, this is a warning not to post such obvious flamebait.

    Let's not turn this thread into a reverse racism shitfest.

    Sure. Overwhelmingly by white people, though.

    Anyway, yeah the last bit I thought was interesting because I can think of a couple incidents that were pretty similar to what was in the video, with a white victim and black attackers, but that wasn't huge news either.

    A lot of people kind of say "well if he was white/black/anything, attacked by white/black/anything, it'd be a big deal", when it's kinda not. The media doesn't touch race at all because talking about overt racial violence like this kind of flies in the fact of the whole "post-racial society" narrative we got going on.

    That's something that just sort of clicked in my mind as I was watching the video, so whatever.

    Anyway, "Finish The Civil War" and all that.

    It's not flame bait. I'm just bringing awareness to the fact that it's often portrayed in the media that white people are the only one's who are racist. I can guarantee that if CNN saw this story they would glace over it.

    They glanced over this one too, and they murdered a guy. Meanwhile the Jena 6 beat up a kid who's been harassing them in an extremely hostile school environment and people want to try them for attempted murder.

    I mean, just sayin'.

    I gave you a warning. This is the 30 day cleanup period.

    Tough luck. You're banned.

    This was disturbing and beyond fucked up. I wish I could say I am surprised unfortunately such behavior is often the norm in parts of the Deep South where people still teach their children such backwards beliefs.

    Terrible. Both cases should be condemned.
