July 10, 201115 yr Thank ya. Frankly, I find it a joke that this has become some national issue. People who are getting all worked up over this should be paying more attention to what happens in their own neighborhood. This is an issue only where it happened, not a national issue. For some reason, if they're white and pretty, the national news -- I'm looking at you, Nancy Grace -- gets up in a tizzy over stuff that happens everywhere, all across the nation to people not fortunate enough to be born white and pretty. I would call to task everyone who is outraged over this incident to expend similar energy working on issues closer to home. Or, just be balanced about your national outrage. Say, for example, when a black girl goes missing. Good post! :thumb:

July 16, 201115 yr Author Now she files to appeal her lying conviction, she just needs to go away as she wants to go into hiding after she was told how the public feels about her and the verdict. I'd tell her to pay back the $400,000+ for her trial first.

Say, for example, when a black girl goes missing. I agree a lot of people need to get a life. But, this works both ways. An arguement could easily be made she was only charged with capital murder because she was white and pretty. I heard some prosecutors saying that the state would have never charged a poor black women the same way.
