Whitlock's latest on Jena 6

I wasn't aware fotf owned a Mexican.

 

We all own one. It's the new fashion accessory.

Mine is Raffi Torres.

 

Mr 70,

I think it works out to one baby seal for every 1,000 Iraqis. If you eat meat, you should have no complaint about the seals.

Mr R, you beat me to Torres.

YHS, etc

 

Explain, please, the racist component you think is present in Jase's column?

 

jr --
Did either of the NHL previews actually include the Leafs?
As far as JW goes, well, if the mayor of the town goes out of his way to give a white supremacist website an interview in which he thanks them for their "support," well, I'd say the question about whether the white community of Jena is getting a raw deal is pretty much answered.
Plus, the thing for which nobody has yet given me a logical answer:
A "white tree"?
In 2007?

 

Just in passing, as in, can they make the playoffs.

Maybe it was this kind of white tree:



But given the blatant racism in this entire incident, I doubt it.

 

Maybe it was a John Birch tree.

 

Mr Wretch,

Well struck. I thought you would have had to go to Jena's better courses and country clubs to find white trees.

YHS, etc

 

Who'd have thunk?

Reminds me of the time I was back in the city in which I grew up to cover an event. The event was in the part of the city in which I was no longer welcome.

Still remember the rocks hitting the car as I dived in and drove off to the sounds of: Get back on your own side of town, White boy.
