You know, all this "we're all the same" sounds pretty hollow to a people who were beaten, tortured, murdered and enslaved not that long ago. Folks seem to want the black community to accept that there is a level playing field when clearly there is not! True equality won't occur in this culture...for women, racial minorities or gays until those with the power to change things start walking the walk instead of spouting a bunch of mindless crap....the reason this case hit a sore spot in the black community should be clear. When folks who are discriminated against start to see real change then color, sex and other stuff won't matter...but expecting folks to trust that they will be treated fairly when they never have been...well, that won't work!

The person who should be thrown under the bus is
Michael Nifong he jumped to conclusions about this
case and he ruined the lives of many on the Duke
lacrosse team.
