DAMN WHITE BOYS…

And to think some of these ignorant nuccas think white folks are better than blacks, well white folks dont give a damn about your black ass,,, wake the hell up and stop putting those white women above your own women.

I can’t believe it.

well i’m 3rd

Somebody better get on this… Hey NAACP

The law of Karma will catch up to them and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.

something should “happen” to them

I don’t know what to say, read the blurb on livesteez and I really don’t know how to feel about this

black/white what does it matter? these two people committed a crime against a man, period. once people embrace that men are men and “race” is an agent to keep people divided we will still have all the problems we have.

Wait, wait, wait… i think we all need 2 calm down…. have be forgot? Our President is Black, which means that racism MUST be dead (sarcasm)

there is a special place in hell for white people i just know it.

Peep this crazy white idiot who’s on a mission to harm our POTUS:

@ NINA KNOWS

PREACH!

Racial injustice is indeed alive and well. HOWEVER…..IF you read the article there was no evidense to prove that they did it and also a man came foward and gave a sworn testimony that he may have run him over. Please get the facts before acuusing anyone of anything.

@ Nina Knows

So the fact that there was no DNA evidense and the fact that another man came foward and said that he may have run him over means that we should pin it in them simply cause they’re white. Don’t you want to know the truth before you convict them. Or is it as simple as they’re white he’s black and that’s it. The prosocuter asked that the case be dropped because of these facts….and he’s black

@ NINA, I’m just sayin….I’m wit you, but some of us arent steppin up to the plate….THIS shi t is wrong…..It’s never okay and should never be excepting but so many of us except this.

That’s why they’re cautious when them come around Black folks…they know damn well many of them be fuc kin up, doing shi t like this

That does it, I will NEVER step foot in Texas. Too much racial ridiculousness.

@mamamia

That was the most ignorant comment I’ve read today. Congrats!!

I guess steering clear away from Texas will help the issue. Well shit, I guess it will, Texas doesnt need any more minstrel idiots, they have enought already. Your presence could only cause more problems.

@pm:

You get that feeling too? I mean, they ARE used to burning..(from the sun), so…………

Well the first guy doesn’t look like he’s all White he looks mixed and the second one looks like a meth head. I bet you they were both high as hell on Meth when this incident happened.

Barack will solve this problem!

@ Nina Knows

I’m far from an idiot and while your sarcasm is cute the fact remains that far too many hate crimes seem to occur in Texas and I reiterate that I have no desire to live somewhere like that. Put the hate crimes aside, I’ve read enough about the blatant racism in general and the treatment from the police and there have been many accounts in the past few months to back that up.

Not to say that hate crimes don’t happen everywhere, but I can at least say that up here in NYC we at least have a few months between each “racial incident” so you can keep Texas.

pm

what an ignorant comment….

SMH indeed. This is Texas afterall….i guess justice is not really as blind as we’d like to believe.

What happen to the guy that came forth and said he “accidentally” hit him? Why did he wait so long to come forth and why didn’t he get charged?

“there is a special place in hell for white people i just know it.”

unless its a white woman with a black man in which case she becomes greater than Michelle Obama – as you stated in the Kendra and Hank thread? why aren’t these white men as great?

@ Nina Knows

I agree with you 100% and if anyone has a problem with that I say lets chop there asses up like bonnie and clyde would do with a machine gun filled with knowledge

My post is for all the people who belive just because we have a blk president and people are swirling at an alarming rate…

Also for the people who believe that Hispanics mean no harm, to blk folks, even though they carry confederate flags, try to join white racial hate groups and are outright killing blks, there is no racism, we should all just roll over and let them kill all of us. Turn the other cheek. America is browning, so we must let them kill all of us, without fear of being punished or being held accountable…

You see, if we all swirl, there’s no reason to get upset about daily injustices, because we are all the same…

BTW: I wonder if a blk person’s life will ever amount to anything…And who knows,I know some of you will say, that the blk guy deserved it. He must’ve been a criminal, or something that he DID, that made him end up in such a position. Them dragging him, had absolutely nothing to do with race, maybe he wore the wrong color shoes,whistled at a wht woman walking past, crossed his eyes at the wrong Mister. Yeah, so he deserves to be dead.
Nobody should be mad. Just accept it and move on..

My post at 2:26pm , was poted just so everyone could see how IGNORANT it sounds.

My post was intended with sarcasm and blk folks need to wake up, Kumbaya is not happening, no matter how much you wish it to.

USE YOUR BRAIN & OPEN YOUR EYES. STOP HATING YOUR OWN. EVERY BLK PERSON SHOULD BE ANGRY AND UP IN ARMS (BEARING ARMS). SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST. SOME OF US ARE NOT GOING TO MAKE IT AND SOME OF YOU ARE NOT BUILT FOR WHAT”S REALLY ABOUT TO GO DOWN…

you better go hide, cause it’s only going to keep getting worse…

BE FOR YOUR OWN.

@always knew:

You said: “I wonder if a blk person’s life will ever amount to anything”?

Good question.

And I think it will once we can show everyone else in America that we value our own lives as well. Stop killing each other off before we end up in the “endangered species” category.

And stop this ignorant “no snitchin” bullshit. That feeds into the depreciation of value for black life.

you have to be kidding me! dragged him for how many miles?! and they getting off? not even a ticket huh

Let James Byrd, be a lesson to you,

hanging out LATE NIGHT with wht folks, by

yourself,

you REALLY think your safe?

If you do, you are an idiot, and I suggest you move to Jasper, Texas or Paris, Texas, asap, so you can befirend your new neighbors, who wouldn’t harm a hair on your head, while they are singing around a bonfire, burning sheets, waiting for the liquor to wear off and you to realize that you are in TROUBLE. The kind of trouble where you won’t have to worry about nothing no more, putting you out of your misery, if you will..

If you believe in ‘equality’ and that we actually are equal (under the law), then I have some swamp land here in Arizona, just for you…..

@datdude92- you are EACTLY the kind of person that I am talking about….Unfortunately, I hope you get dragged as well, then I’ll just say that your friends were having a little party and wanted to see how far you could drag…

If they try to bring charges, against the guys who murder you, don’t worry, I’ll tell them it was an accident and protest to any blk people, trying to stand up for you..

AFTER ALL, IT”S JUST AN ACCIDENT, RIGHT?
YOU ARE A FRICKING IDIOT.

@datdude92

I have been following this story too. The killers told friends that they started bumping him with the car bumper and then ran him over. They then went the next morning and washed the car.

The fact that they were his friends doesn’t mean anything. One of the guys did jail time for killing another friend.

This story pisses me off too. It would be nice to see these two turn up dead. Wouldn’t bother me a bit. F*ckers.

should’ve been exactly..

Black men are going to have to take the blame for the lack of value of your lives. You shoot and kill each other at the drop of a dime. This happens so often that no one blinks an eye when a black man’s life is taken (no matter by whom). So, if you want the value of your lives to increase and people to pay attention to INJUSTICE involving your lives STOP KILLING EACH OTHER!

James Byrd was dragged to death by “friends” as well–this doesn’t mean anything.

What has happened here is highly irregular. The two men were initially charged with murder. These charges have now been dropped at the request of a special prosecutor. The original prosecutor had to recuse himself from the case because he was a defense attorney for one of the accused on a prior attempted murder charge. As a poster upstream notes, the two men admitted to “bumping” McClelland and then cleaning the truck afterwards.

Now all of a sudden someone has come forward to admit they “accidentally struck” McClelland? This doesn’t pass the smell test.

This was a brutal crime–much like James Byrd, and sadly, Emmitt Till

If I say this to one person, I say this to all. When you do bad things God gets you for it. For real y’all we have to pray for these two because when it comes back around on them…its going to be terrible..and I mean horrible so let that be known.

In 1987 12 yr old son was crossing the street near my home, he was in the crosswalk on a fresh green light. A car ran thru the light and hit him dragging him for over 45ft before the driver stopped and he was flung another 8ft…he nearly died and was in intensive care for a few weeks and hospitalized for over 4 months having multiple surgeries and to this day has an announced limp and severe headaches. The brotha that hit him 1. had no license..2 had no insurance..3 was intoxicated and 4..had his arm strapped off and a syringe on the seat next to him..5 tried to run off after he got out of the car..6 had a failure to appear warrant for a previous DUI…..He did two days in jail and was released on all counts…..Heres how the reasoning was broken down to me..1 for the warrant, driving with no license 2 days in jail was time served for those…2 for the DUI he was given sentenced to AAA..3 for driving with no insurance he was fined and the car returned to its owner..His running the light was because he was looking down as he was strapping off and hit my son, the court said that since he hit my son before he had injected himself they couldn’t charge him with being under the influence of a non perscribed substance..6 since onlookers caught him and kept him from running off he couldn’t be charged with leaving the scene of an accident either….dude was just let go and free to go about his business while my son was laid up near death……the detectives and the officers involved were as angry as my family and I were and slid me his address which I held onto until it was evident that the court had no intention of locking him up for a any amount of time. ……after giving the system 5 years it got handled the old fashion way feel me…….point I was making is that along with the racist nature of the courts it also plain dysfunctional…….

@brnhornet

I feel the EXACT same way you do. That’s part of the reason why I stopped commenting on alot of these racially driven threads because the attitudes are all azz backwards and people still don’t understand how ineffective fighting hate with hate is. I just smh and stay prayerful because some people will never see.

but yet you still comment…

everyone has an opinion, if you don’t like it…

the smarter thing to do, is do NOTHING, let it

CONTINUE, in the name of racial equality.

Despite the fact, that these incidents are all too

COMMON. The biggest issue facing the blk community

is blk on blk crime. Which I correlate to decline

of morality and core values. Which doesn’t happen

to have a specific race/ ethnicity…

NO solutions, just criticism

and head in the sand, as usual..

It’s a wonder that blks even have civil rights with

some of your progressive/ elitist attitudes towards

racial issues that others deal with on a daily

basis. It’s called RACIAL INTOLERANCE…

You gotta love blind people…Daddy used to say, you can take a horse, to the water but you can’t make him drink…

Go figure. SMH.

For the record, there is no CORRECT way to deal with unexplainable, brutalistic violence. No matter what the race.

Only if it were all TRULY colorblind…

Pretending doesn’t make it REALITY…

You can put back on your rose-colored glasses..

I’m done here…

Safe travels..

The judiciary system is corrupt and favored for whites, just ask the FBI.

@ Kill-ILL-Lights:
they’re white, not hispanic. Reading is fundamental: “Shannon Finley and Charles Crostley were the prime suspects in the dragging death of a black man in east Texas. ”
The names of Shannon Finley and Charles Crostely are NOT latino. You and others like you, go educate yourself.
@ brhnhornet & caramel cat:
-Co-sign and thank you. And remember, that there are those out there who just want to be angry and constantly look for reasons to be angry. Let’s not forget our past but use it to progress forward and not hold us back.

@enkogneegro

I am very sorry that you and your family had to experience something like that. It makes me so sad to see our legal system fail us so miserably. It’s almost like there’s little to no recourse… and they wonder why some of us have to take matters into our own hands and resort to violence to bring about the justice we’ve been denied…

A white person that is mixed with Hispnic blood is often referred to as a Mezo. They often LOOK white and have white backgrounds, however make no mistake about it, there is DEFINITELY a mix there… I love people who claim to know it all based solely off a name…

Anywho, I just wanted to INFORM some of the intellectually challenged and misguided…

As I stated before, lots of criticism..

NO SOLUTIONS.

Have a good evening…I hope we find our way through all the setbacks. And yes, you lessons from the past, so you don’t repeat the mistakes.

Excellent advice…

learn*

And to all a good night..

That was for Always Knew

@always knew

It’s called analysis. With the information I have read it seems more likely that in order to still find body parts 3 days later speaks to the impact and the weight and speed of the vehicle. Yet you want to wish me the worst. Thus displaying your lack of intelligence and more so your inabilty to have an objective opinion.

At the end of the day the young man died a horrible death and regardless of the reason it does not bring resolution or comfort to his greiving family.

“Let James Byrd, be a lesson to you,
hanging out LATE NIGHT with wht folks, by
yourself, you REALLY think your safe?” – always knew.

Black people are generally safe around white people late at night. I am often out late with black people and I haven’t killed any yet. It would probably be a good idea to avoid being out late with white people who look like those pictured above, however.

@randy-What does someones choice who they decide to date or marry have to do with an injustice such as this.
_______________________________

It continues to occur. People pretend to be colorblind, when it fits their objectives. Other times, it’s inconvienent..People that tend to swirl, sometimes tend to not regard these incidents, because they feel it doesn’t apply to them, because they are swirling, so they are not one of them/ us.. It shouldn’t have anything to do with who you date/ marry. Can you tell me that this doesn’t affect the lack of response, in that particular group. I hardly ever see swirlers, upset at racial injustices. hardly ever…

Just becasue their spouse is of a different race does not mean that they are no longer black and do not become upset at things like this.
_____________________________________

Well ,then you are definitely NOT a sell-out.

Most people who do sell-out and ‘forget’ their community, just because of who they are with..

Maybe people are making strides, in the interracial arena, I would like to see more people ( of different backgrounds also unwilling to accept this kind of treatment, for any person, it just usually doesn’t happen that way…

Civil rights marches, you are correct, made up of all sorts of people. Have you seen anything similar to tha harmony/ equality of racial differences, since the 60′s or are there more hate incidents? Be honest, with yourself. And of those tht do utilize hate crimes- are they punished, unpunished or simply let go. Where is the equal justice under the law?

Might I add, the end of this story, was that INDEED, they got off and out of jail, however the blk man is still dead.

Equal justice? No, you can’t really say so. If hey get locked up and not punished, what’s the message the prosecutors send? Isn;t that why this keeps happening in that particular town, instead
of trying to attack my logic, WHY DON”T YO HELP DO SOMETHING??

they*

WHY DON”T YOU HELP DO SOMETHING??

I got 2 words for these MFs – wood chipper.

Always Knew

——————————————————————————————————
I remember not so long ago, Al sharp ton along with other protesters who were black, white and Latino, marched along side one another to protest the New York Post for their negative cartoon featuring Obama as a dead Ape. They were upset that a newspaper can print such trash. Everyone is not a born racist because of their color.

Again I don’t know if this incident is racial or not, but they were high as hell when they hit the guy and they probably paniced due to the fact they were zonked out of their minds.

White and Jews please die!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a primitive title…
