Around the country, there have been a slew of cases, especially here in Georgia where men wrongly convicted of crimes were released after serving many years in prison.
Juxtapose this with what happened to James Fowler, a former Alabama State trooper who just recently surrendered for a killing he allegedly committed in 1965. It occurred during a civil rights protest in Marion in which Fowler shot and killed Jimmie Lee Jackson (pictured above). This killing lead to the Selma – to – Montgomery voting rights march. This means that Mr. Fowler was allowed to run around free for 42 years without penalty.
So how does it work? Well if you happen to be of African descent in America, you are thrown in prison on GP and will likely spend 15 to 30 years in prison for a crime one may have not been guilty of committing. If you are white, you are allowed to walk free for decades, even when there is substantial evidence to convict you. This means that fairness and equal protection under the law is not applicable to African Americans until after they serve time for crimes they don commit or worse, that people who commit crimes on them are not subjugated to the same penalty as afforded by the law.
For example in 2003, Billy Ray Johnson a “mentally challenged” 44 year-old was tricked in going to a party in Linden, Texas, beaten unconscious and left in a puddle of blood to die on the side of the road. The individuals (white) who committed this crime were given suspended sentences by the judged and only served 30 and 60-day terms in jail – not prison. Johnson on the other hand suffered permanent brain damage.
All I am saying is brother’s watch out. We still live in a time where the word of a single person or white woman for lack of a better example, can land you in prison even without evidence or if the person wears glasses. And if you are the victim of a crime, and your attackers are a member of the privileged historical order of American culture, they you may suffer without seeing the perpetrator brought to justice. Like I said, it is not criminology, it is more like tricknology.

Man , does your brain ever stop working? God stuff though, where do you find this stuff at and how do you piece it together, because I certainly do not see it on tv.
T: why do you continue to fuel my anger with these post...LOL. STOP IT...I CAN'T TAKE IT...LOL. Ok, I HATE THIS, and do you know these guys get for their wrongful imprisionment...you know what they get as redemption...they get what was handed out YESTERDAY....'SORRY'. UM!!
An orange was orange, round and juicy 400 years ago and pretty much remains the same today....Most caucasians were ignorant, ugly and evil 400 years ago---so it doesn't surprise me that they have changed very little today--It's their nature...The thing I hate is--they took the hoods off so now we are clueless to who they really are...
seee...man. I wanted to give myself a mental break from getting all angry, T.
I came over to your spot for some intellectual stimulation and now you got me all "agimitated and what-not"
thanks again and by the way, excellent post of facts to go along with the stated observation.
I'm currently in my hometown of Oakland and the drame continues, however I'm gonna do my part in lacing all my cats in righteous living by ripping these cats a new one. Peace Bro and when all else fails just stand. Holla back.

It’s never about the crime, it’s about the color of those who stand accused.
I'm going to be like OJ, gripped tight, so I can fight the white!
That is if the need ever arises.
maybe it's a form of genocide....getting our men out of the world during their procreating years.
one never knows. -C
