Jena 6 Update!!!!!!!!!

[BronxBoy]

Just announced on Michael Baisden's show by Mychal Bell's attorney..

Adult case thrown out. He and the others will be given new trials in juvenile court!

That racist DA is going to have his ass handed to him based upon all the anecdotal evidence.

Still some things to do but sometimes life turns out right

Just got in but I will try to look for a link

Here's one link.

8. It's About Time!

This case has been churning in my gut along with the guy set for execution in Texas for being an accesory to murder.

[aikoaiko]

9. Good news. that seems about right.

[goclark]

10. Give me a Y, give me a E, give me an S~yes, yes, yes!

Speak Justice!

Speak Truth to Power---- :bounce: :patriot:

[BronxBoy]

11. Hey GoClark !!!

I'm really interested to see if that punk ass DA decides to proceed with the case.

I've heard estimates that close to 60,000 people are planning to be there on Thursday

The young men now have decent legal representation instead of a compliant, "don't rock the boat" toady

And Mychal Bell's attorney alluded to the fact that are going to probably seek a change of venue.

I'd really like to see how he reacts against some real opposition

[goclark]

12. Hey BronxBoy ~ don't you wish we could be there!

The new Bull Connor puppets are alive and well and supported by Georgie and his Klan of Rethugs.

No justice, no peace my brother!

[BronxBoy]

17. Yes

but we'll be there in spirit.

Warren Ballantine is doing a live broadcast. Should hear most of it.

13. Thank you.

fucking assholes!!!

The people will still flood Jena 9/20/2007 with their disgust and outrage.

WEAR BLACK ON 9/20/2007 AS A SIGN OF SOLIDARITY!!

[BronxBoy]

16. Cat..

Is it all Black?

[CatWoman]

23. From Michael's site:

FREE THE JENA 6 ...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH... FREE THE JENA SIX

On September 20, 2007 more than 1 million people will wear BLACK as we unite in one voice with one message to declare that UN-EQUAL JUSTICE is just not acceptable. The world will be watching when not just African Americans but people of all races take a stand for something that we all believe in. Mychal Bell and the Jena Six should be free. If you have not heard about their case and why these average teenagers, good students, great athletes and are now fighting for their lives (one student Mychal Bell has been in jail since Dec. 2006) please CLICK HERE NOW to view this video for the shock of your life and on any of the links below for more information. This is clearly a case of racism, but Michael Baisden reminds us the protest in Jena, LA, the US and around the world is not an attack on white people but against a system that has failed us all. It is not about black and white but about what is wrong and what is right!

Enough is Enough...Un-Equal Justice is just not acceptable! ..Wear Black on September 20th to show your support!

And, give relief for the remaining Jena 5 and their families.

Subject: Jena 6 National Day of Action - will you join us?

Dear Breeze,

September 20th marks a pivotal point in the Jena 6 case. Thousands of people from across the country will descend on Jena in a major show of support for Mychal Bell and the other five young men. But you don't have to go to Jena to make a difference--you can make a major impact on the 20th by taking action in your own community.
We're organizing a National Day of Action on the 20th to raise awareness about the Jena 6 situation, increase pressure on Governor Blanco, and make it clear that folks all over the country will not let this injustice stand. Whether you have a few minutes to call Louisiana officials, a half-hour to pass out flyers in your neighborhood, or an hour or so to host or attend a rally or vigil, you can play a key role. Our tools and materials make it easy.

Click here to learn more or to sign up now:

http://www.colorofchange.org/jena/action.html

Almost 200,000 of us have taken action online in support of the Jena 6. Imagine if even 50,000 of us take time on Thursday to go further. Our power is in our numbers. Together we can force the hand of Louisiana's governor and ultimately achieve justice for the Jena 6. Thank you for what you've done so far and for whatever you're able to do on the 20th.

Thank You and Peace,

-- James, Van, Gabriel, Clarissa, Mervyn, and the rest of the ColorOfChange.org team

19. What absolutely wonderful news!

Thank you for the update.

[Irishonly]

21. Thank You

I hope the DA gets disbarred. I don't know if he has actually broken any laws or not but I can hope.

[Judi Lynn]

22. Looks so much better than it did, but there's still a long way to go before any fair closure

can be made.

Sure hope the side of good will finally prevail here. It looked as if the demon supercharged racist D.A. had it completely under his control. It is alarming anyone would do anything this overt to keep the vicious white bigots capable of OWNING the law itself.

It won't be right until he has been completely defeated.

Best wishes to the young people who have been truly mistreated.
