The Return of Mob Justice?
I was waiting for this article from Thomas Sowell, who weighs in on the Jena 6 controversy. Sowell is a black professor and writer who is also very conservative in his views:The last thing the South needs is a return to lynch-mob justice, whatever the color of whoever is promoting it.
Back in the 1950s, when the federal courts began striking down the Jim Crow laws in the South, one of the rising demands across the country was that the discriminators and segregationists obey "the law of the land."
But, somewhere along the way, the idea also arose and spread that not everybody was supposed to obey "the law of the land."
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the AP story I posted over the weekend which debunked many myths of the so-called "white tree". Guess their talking points are already too well established.
