"Free The Scott Sisters!" Makheru Bradley
Denmark Vesey said ...
"Free" the Scott Sisters?"Free" them to do what?
Join a bunch of dumbed-down obese Plantation Negros and Plantation Crackas suffering from an array of engineered diseases who all occupy the same prison without walls?
Free them to have their minds crippled by compulsory schooling which destroys their imaginations and condemns them to a life as either robotic employees, soldiers or inmates?
Free them to join a nation of black, white and brown indentured servants shackled by the chains of perpetual debt?
Free them to have their homes foreclosed upon and their babies sterilized via GMO and immunity destroying vaccines?
Slaves demanding other slaves be freed is like Chicken George talking about "Free Fiddler!"
Shit. Free Makheru Bradley!
America has become a nation of slaves and they come in all different colors.
One of the reasons the Plantation is able to perpetrate this injustice is by keeping blacks and whites at each others throats in a never ending racial football game.
If you want to "Free" the Scott Sisters work to free all Americans of the manacles of denatured food, institutionalized schooling and financial slavery to international banks.

And there’s no better example of mental slavery than a deliberate attempt to obfuscate the real issue here--a demand for justice.
Supporters of the Scott Sisters are demanding that Gov. Haley Barbour pardon the sisters. A pardon for the sisters should be a no-brainer, given some of the violent criminals the governor has pardoned:
* Bobby Hays Clark was pardoned by the governor. He was serving a sentence for manslaughter and aggravated assault, having shot and killed a former girlfriend and badly beaten her boyfriend.
* Michael David Graham had his life sentence for murder suspended by Barbour. Graham had stalked his ex-wife for years before shooting her to death as she waited for a traffic light.
* Clarence Jones was pardoned by the governor. He had murdered his former girlfriend in 1992, stabbing her 22 times. He had already had his life sentence suspended by a previous governor.
* Paul Joseph Warnock was pardoned by Barbour. He was serving life for the murder of his girlfriend in 1989. According to Slate, Warnock shot his girlfriend in the back of the head while she slept.
* William James Kimble was pardoned by Barbour. He was serving life for the murder and robbery of an elderly man in 1991.

Well it seems Haley Barbour is going to be running for the GOP Presidential nomination, as suspending indefinitely the Scott sisters sentence this week is a "show that the cares about black people" in racist Mississippi.
Requiring one sister to donate a kidney to the other as a condition of release, is highly unethical (and stupid since one of the sisters had said she would anyway).
I believe the real reasons other than "justice" is as follows:
1. Publicity to distract from his record, and thinking tossing tokens at black folks will engender good will.
2. Medical treatment for the sister with chronic renal failure is costing the State money (not anything significant), but that is just a cherry on top of this publicity stunt.
Much has been said about how they were jailed for $11. They were jailed for armed robbery...which is fine. It's the excessive sentence that was unjust...and should be billed as such. These weren't pillars of the community.
There are other things to march and protest about.

In other words when an injustice occurs only “pillars of the community” are worthy of protests.
They were jailed for armed robbery...which is fine.—DMG
So you've reviewed the evidence in the case and reached that conclusion.
[Based on coerced testimonies, the state’s attorney convinced the jury that the Scott sisters had masterminded the robbery even though one of the victims testified that this was not true. The teen-agers known as “the Patrick men” were also found guilty, but got light sentences because they had cut a deal to blame the robbery on the Scott sisters. Even though 14-year-old Howard Patrick admitted under cross-examination that he had fingered them under threat of being raped in prison, the jury condemned Jamie and Gladys to die in prison, and sentenced their children to grow up without a mother. Four years later, one of the Patrick men signed an affidavit clearing the Scott sisters of the robbery, but this statement was never considered in a court of law.]--Carolina Saldana
No. Don't put words in my mouth. I acknowledged the injustice in SENTENCING. If you want to argue about how they were "framed", you are wasting your time, cause I'm not really interested.
I just find it silly that everyone keeps talking about this $11.00 as though the amount robbed has anything to do with their guilt or innocence.
All you did was give me a paragraph with loaded words like "coerced testimonies". Do you have any evidence that the testimonies were coerced, or the statements in the affidavit are truthful?
No, you have a blogger's opinion.
Again, there are other things, and injustices more worthy of your time, effort, and voice....but that's my opinion.

“These weren't pillars of the community. There are other things to march and protest about.” Those are your words, and they reflect the condescending, bourgeois consciousness you’ve expressed before.
No, you have a blogger's opinion. – DMG
Wrong. I’ve read the transcript of the trial. The testimony of the then 14-year-old Howard Patrick is proof enough that he was coerced.

Done!
Free from one cell to the other.
Makheru,
Bourgeois? Condescending? These two women committed armed robbery. How is stating that condescending or "bourgeois".
I don't think you can prove coercion from that transcript. You are giving opinion...which you are entitled.
Again, it's not like these women were sitting in Bible study reading scriptures when the robbery happened. Frankly, I think the 14 year old boy got the worst end of the deal....but that's my opinion.
