Everyday I go to WRAL just for the comments that are left by people that read the stories this society has so many issues.We all have such different views of what is going on in the world and everyone tries to make the other agree with what they believe. I thought that everyone has a right to voice their concerns. I wonder if the people going back and forth on the comment section ever stops to think and read what is being said before they comment on it. You can't make someone agree with anything u say just because u assume that u are right.Dr. King's dream will never come to light because of the hate and negativity in the world. May God have Mercy On All Of Our souls.

good maybe they can retire the race card once and for all

Chavis is just as racist and radical now as he was back then in my book. They succeeded in pressuring Purdue, but what's inside a man's heart is what matters.

Of all the people in the world to chose from, why would WRAL select this individual to disemenate his thoughts or opinions,who at BEST this person has a radical non maistream extreme view of world. .

Ben is certainately entitled to his opinion, one in which I believe the Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. would disagree with.

"Id say that's a solid endorsement coming from a convicted murderer pardoned by a desperate liberal governor leaving office."

If you have evidence that he's a murder than why are you hiding it? Or are you trying to score political points? Bill Brasky

=====================================

Tell me Bill, what is your evidence showing innocence other than a governor you like and agree with in principle folds under public pressure and pardons the group? At least my opinion is based on a jury of their peers and their decision as the evidence was presented. You don't have that.

=====================================

Score political points? No. I'm not a politician nor am I in some competition to score anything especially here. This is a blog page for opinions and comments. You read both. As for evidence, they were convicted, that will not change even with a pardon. There is no pardon without a conviction to "overturn". I believe in the original decisions of the original jury, just as I do with Jeffrey McDonald, so don't make this to be a racial issue on me cause it's not. Anything can be twisted if enough time has lapsed. Key people died and no longer can testify in this case. YOUR liberal Governor desperate for an up tick in public opinion and leaving office does not change that for me at all.

I don't believe King ever envisioned a black president enslaving Americans with welfare.

ripetomatoes, it appears the only contextual merit your comments have is in emphasizing the supreme importance of your own personal righteous indignation.

Remember, a group of people who all look different but who all think alike is not what diversity is about. Diversity of opinion is so much more important than diversity of appearance, and is the basis for why forums such as this exist. Simply providing commentary that states you have come, you have read, and you are offended, offers nothing.

Might I suggest you consider diversity as appealing rather than appalling. In a word, might not we Coexist?

JohnDrescher Your comments go beyond insulting. By name calling you have negated the merit of your statements. ripetomatoes

ripetomatoes, you observation is reminiscent of the segregationist who stood in the doorways of schools, "insulted" by the idea that their opinions did not reign supreme.JohnDrescher Well, obviously name calling is all you have, except for the prejudiced analogy. I re-read your earlier comment to see what I missed because of your response. I still only felt the hatred you were spreading. You are sounding like a broken record.
