Unfortunately, it's so elementary, and the big time investors behind the drive in the stock market aren't so stupid. This isn't the false economy of 2000.

It sounds bad, really bad, but I hate jumping into these things without knowing a lot more. I'm googling it.
The first thing that throws me off: how do you NOT get expelled for HANGING NOOSES FROM A TREE on school grounds? What dumbshit administrator thought that was a reasonable prank?

Because it was a school run by a bunch of white racist DOUCHEBAGS.

i don't think that's an acceptable answer...they're dumb, from the south, etc.... this is sick and if the state isn't going to address it, maybe the federals should (i know, i know.... )

A charge of aggravated battery requires the use of a "deadly weapon". Walters thus argued that the tennis shoes that Bell was wearing and used to kick Barker were deadly weapons, an argument with which the all-white jury agreed.
Ahh jeez

would you have preferred they stuck with the 2nd Degree Murder Charge?
and regardless if it was provoked by race.. this is still a "hate" crime if 6 black youths beat up a white teen because he is white... so shouldnt they have gotten stiffer penelaties because of hate crime legislation?
