The alleged gang rape of an 11-year-old girl by at least 18 boys and young men has sparked shame and outrage in a tiny Texas town, but it has also stirred racial tensions that threaten to split the East Texas hamlet.

All of the defendants arrested are African-American and the girl is Hispanic.

...In a town this small, everyone is a neighbor, but that small town ambience is being severely strained.

I didn’t. Maybe your response needs to be directed to someone who did.

Uhhhh...I pulled the quote from the article you posted and commented on it. Did you not read your own article?

These rapists should suffer at the hands of a "Mexican Drug Cartel Execution" (search for it, but WARNING, it's very graphic).

“the males would be stood before a wall and shot.”

Cartridges are expensive. Rope can be used over and over again.

Ugh! You should have put an UGLY ALERT in your heading to save us from viewing these walking pieces of dog poop. They should all be hog tied and then relieved of their 3-piece set with a dull knife. Then toss ‘em across the southern border.

Leave it to the Mexicans.
They die with their "set" in their mouthes before their heads are removed.

“In the name of the People of the United States, for a crime against humanity, to wit - the rape of an 11 year old girl, you are about to be executed. Do you have any last words? Hearing no request for a last statement the firing squad is directed to lock and load. Let justice be done.”

If I had a choice between firing squad and rope I would choose firing squad. Wouldn’t you?

Rope is still a lot cheaper than cartridges, more demeaning and can be reused. Beisdes, it is more like a lynching a la the old Western cowboy movies! :-)

Take them to the nearest zoo and let the male chimps tear them apart.

May they all get Jail House Justice.

They don't take kindly to "cho-moes" (child molesters) in prison.

"I'm not going to play the race card on this"
Then why bring up the issue of race?

To quote Weight Watchers ads, "Because it works."

But God forbid we should try to establish any kind of moral code in this country....

It might harm the children. Or offend a parent.

Lots of posters direct their remarks to the person who is speaking inside the quote marks or in the italics indicating that the comment came from the article. And when replying to the article itself, most freepers direct it to Post 1; but their reply is to the comment within the article, not to the poster who authored Post 1.

Encyclopedia Britannica (1798)

NEGRO, Homo pelli nigra, a name given to a variety of the human species, who are entirely black, and are found in the Torrid zone, especially in that part of Africa which lies within the tropics. In the complexion of negroes we meet with various shades; but they otherwise differ far from other men in all the features of their face. Round cheeks, high cheek-bones, a forehead somewhat elevated, a short, broad, flat nose, thick lips, small ears, ugliness, and irregularity of shape, characterize their external appearance. The negro women have the loins greatly depressed, and very large buttocks, which give the back the shape of a saddle. Vices the most notorious seem to be the portion of this unhappy race: idleness, treachery, revenge, cruelty, impudence, stealing, lyng, profanity, debauchery, nastiness and intemperance, are said to have extinguished the principles of natural law, and to have reproofs of conscience. They are strangers to every sentiment of compassion, and are an awful example of the corruption of man when left to himself.
