Many slaves were captured by their own kind and sold to slave ships. Many were also sold by their families.

I do not condone slavery but it happened.. nothing can change that. If people want reparation for something that never happened to them, I can't see the point. No one now living had anything to do with what happened so long ago.

If some folks still want reparation... we should offer a free cruise back to Africa one way of course. Anyone wishing to be an American and equal should stay. No hyphenated so called Americans need apply.

As for HATE crimes.... I see no difference in someone beaten for his/her race, creed, color as someone beaten for anything else... money, coat, shoes...

If you want equality.... quit trying to be different.... your either American or your not. This means everyone of all colors.

I'm not putting anyone to blame for the past....and I'm certainly not saying this case was justified. Just pointing out that there were many hate crimes committed in the past with no consequence(Emitt Till, Alabama Schoolgirls etc.) that for it to swing the other way once isnt anything new?

Couple of things that irk me about this...

Slavery was not exclusive to whites. Every race has had it at one point in time, and most of them were slaves to their own race. For anyone to say "You owe me" is a total crock.

Those kids got off easy because the black community would have rioted and thrown a fit. Whites will just go home and blog about it or complain on a bbs.

"Hate crimes" is one of the more stupid things this nation has come up with. It's right up there with being politically correct, outsourcing jobs, and allowing illegal immigrants to stay in country.

A crime is a crime. All "hate crime" is doing is allowing reverse discrimination. It's going to get to a point where if a white person sneezes they'll be sued for contaminating the persons oxygen.

Shouldnt swing any way at all, but. The racial crap in this country will never end in my lifetime Im guessing. You can only take being force fed this bull**** for so long you only end up caring about you and yours. I guess that works as planned for the people that thrive on this stuff.

If blacks were treated as badly as my grandfather and his father were treated in the coal mines when they got here...

They would get all weepy and nostolgic for the good old days of being slaves on the plantation.

Where is my reparations? the frigging mines are still open.

The sentence is a crock. They should do time, at least the older kids.

Now if you think racism and blacks being treated as second class citizens ended 300 years ago I'll be happy to point out how wrong you are.

In an above Post it was pointed out that there were "white" slaves in the US also. Most of them came from Europe....England, Wales, Germany etc.

In exchange for room and board these "Indentured Servants" were sometimes given little food, no education, a place to sleep under a roof somewhere....maybe.....for their labors. Some were found buried in basements. Was a show devoted to it on the History Channel (I believe)

Life was not at all good for them either. Just proves that those who are greedy will take advantage of anyone at anytime.

MT... some racism is bad.. some is just wrong but unavoidable and not really important.

When you throw out "racism" you are not really saying anything.

Give me an example of your idea of current racism... something specific... and I will tell you if it should be a crime or not since you seem incapable of making a rational judgement.

In the case of the kids here... racism caused the blacks to act as they did. they hated the others because they were white. the hatred is not a crime... the beating was.

sooo.. give me an example of the racist crimes you see every day please.

Racist crimes? What are you talking about? I never mentioned racist crimes.

I'm just amused at the poor oppresed white folks who are so downtrodden by society now that the black man is getting all the goodies.. lol.

That sir.. is funny.

Did you even read the article? Some colored boys beat some white ladies nearly to death, dislocating eyes and such, and they get off with a slap on the wrist. Oh, yes, we evil Aryans are certainly oppressing the black man.

I've never mistreated anyone because of their skin color (or any other physical attribute), so I object strongly to being lumped in with those who do - and punished for it.

Go read my 1st post Benny. then get back to me.
