1. how do you know this for sure? (the part about this not being the kid that hung the nooses)
2. Even if it wasn't, what are the chances that that kid got an ass-beating for no reason? He had to have had a mouth on him, you don't know what provocations he may have provided.
3. I'll say it again in case you missed it the first time... I don't generally condone violence as a solution. I hope I don't have to repeat that a 3rd time. HOWEVER, there are times when turning the other cheek is no longer the right thing to do, and we all know how things get sometimes between local whites and blacks, especially that far down south.
If they shit-kicked the guy "just because" then they should have been put away for a long while. If there was extreme provocation (and I suspect that there was) that's a different story. Color of skin shouldn't enter into their judgement.
