Jena 6

My thoughts on the Jena issue... It NEVER should have happened. You can't justify a "wrong" with another "wrong". And the thing is... those kids are old enough to know better. I'm not taking sides in this issue, but the justice is whacked in that town. It needs to be equal all around. Don't just slap someone on the wrist unless you're planning on slapping the other party on the wrist as well. Thats the issue. But the justice system there, messed up big time and now the media is all over it like a dog to a bone. If the boys served some lock down time in Juvi hall and sent home, we never would have found out.
