Damnit, damnit, damnit.

NAACP seeks federal probe after noose put on black student

Johnson said Stacey Payton was advised against filing a police report because the father of one of the alleged assailants is a former law enforcement officer. Boggs said he talked to Stacey Payton and that's not true. He said he told her that pursuing criminal charges could result in hard feelings among students that could make her son's life harder at school.

Harder than having a ****ing noose around his neck?

If it's any consolation, I see that, as of now, there are no comments on the story. That's progress, right?

Hollis and Stacey Payton, parents of the alleged victim, attended the news conference but did not speak. Their son, a sophomore football player, was not with them and they did not release his name.

There is no room for consolation yet. Shock, horror and outrage.

My wife is related to about 3/4 of Stone County and this surprises me not at all.

The sad part is Stone High is having one of its best football seasons in quite some time, but any chance of that team bringing the community together has just been blown to smithereens.

That's the same justification that's been used for the past 50 years to avoid prosecutions; sexual assault victims' ears are bleeding from hearing this. Damn, get real people. Hey Mr. Johnson, how about closing ranks and saying "we will not condone those who exacerbate the situation by trying to persecute the victim?" Sickening.
