would you consider these things racist??
black colleges
black businessman's association
the black panthers
the Latino organization-- la raza
home loans and credit cards set aside for black and Latinos only !!
what about pamphlets that promote black owned or Latino owned only business's--- so you can discriminate as a consumer??
ALL ALIVE AND WELL HERE IN THE STATE'S-- IT'S PERFECTLY O.K. AS LONG AS YOUR NOT WHITE AND DOING THESE THINGS !!!
SO YES-- RACISM IS ALIVE AND WELL HERE IN THE STATES--- WHAT ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY???
This is called "positive discrimination", KID, look it up in a dictionary.
Besides, what has any of this got to do with this incident?![]()

what seems to have been lost on some people posting on this thread is that there was a tree at the school (referred to as the 'tree of knowledge') that apparently only white kids were able sit under.
when a student with dark skin had the audacity to sit under the tree, some whites responded by hanging a noose.
this is not a joke or a prank, but a crime.
First KID claimed there is no meaning to the noose, when that was shown to be nonsense, he brings up Black Panther and ethnic minority interest groups, as if that would in some way excuse, explain or relativise the noose incident.
These days tying a hangman's noose like in a locker room, schooyard - anywhere is considered a crime. Depending on the locality, it can get you a big fine. Couple years ago a Black found a noose in a Wal Mart toilet stall - an employees restroom as I recall and alerted the authorities. Well, guess what - an ambulance-chasing *spit/lawyer/spit* got ahold of the case and the Black guy walked away with >1 million USD.
Lesson to anybody who burns crosses or ties hangman's nooses...

I think anyone should be allowed to sit under the tree.
Under Federal or state law, it probably is considered a crime. You know more about this issue perhaps, than I do.this is not a joke or a prank, but a crime.
We should remain aware that blacks do the same thing to white and other non-black racial and ethnic groups. Non-blacks are harrassed, intimidated and even killed in many parts of the U.S. in areas considered to be Black Areas.

And why do you think that is?Originally Posted by Milkman

I'll answer that.
Backlash over the whole segregation thing, plus, some of them want 'reparations' for their ancestors being slaves. BTW, how's the Maori issue doing down there? Seems there was a bit of 'unrest' in recent past?

NOPE--- just brining up the fact that discrimination and racism occur toward every race, by every race !!!
It seems to be more accepted if it is the WHITE people on the receiving end !!!
As far as the noose is concerned, I would just about bet every race of people have been hung by one at some time or another. So what gives black people SPECIAL RIGHTS to it as a symbol of racism???
Blacks have no "special rights" to the noose as a symbol of racism. It's grown out of history, through the use of the White man, still using it today, as amply apparent.Originally Posted by KID
You are confused and twisting thing.
Yes Ray Baby, Hanging was at one time the form of execution in LA.
They have never stoned people to death there.
Pretty good article on the truth at Jena.

It's a piece on townhall.com, "where our opinion counts", not "the truth", bg.
So, the noose isn't a racist, KKK symbol, then? Was it put up to threaten the White folks of Louisiana?![]()
as much truth as anything else you read in the media, no one on this forum knows the truth as such.
Ray seems like he thinks only Blacks were hung in LA. everyone that got Capitol Punishment in LA. at one time was hung, black, yellow or white,,everyone.
if you have me on ignore bg, why do you keep responding to my posts?
and the issue is not capital punishment, it's the lynchings that took place not so very long ago.
btw, you never responded to my question about your friends (the one's whose kids call you uncle) and what their opinion might be of the racist cartoons you post on this forum.
What does the noose stand for then, MM?
I am not a merkin, but the connection to racism and the KKK seems to be there, according to merkin sources:
Digg - Two KKK members arrested in noose incident near Jena, LouisianaTwo KKK members arrested in noose incident near Jena, Louisiana
The passenger told police he and his family are in the Ku Klux Klan and that he had KKK tattooed on his chest, the police report said. He also said that he tied the nooses and that the brass knuckles belonged to him, the report said.
From 2005:
STOPP Coalition - Media CoverageIn Haynes’ first amended original complaint, Sánchez wrote, “To many African-Americans and to Plaintiff (Haynes), the hangman’s noose is a type of hate-speech similar to the swastika. It evokes a time period when certain American state governmental institutions, ad hoc ‘kangaroo court,’ and their para-military arms, used to arrest without due process of law and summary execution through lynching. The hangman’s noose was the preferred method of execution and represents a tool of genocide to Plaintiff (Haynes).”
