This 16 year old black girl was assaulted after dropping cake on the floor by one of the white security officers at her school. Her wrist was broken cause she dropped a piece of birthday cake on the floor! Do you know what happened to the security officer? Nothing. What happened to the student? She was suspended from school and is being charged with crimes including littering! Her mother was arrested for apparently being aggressive towards the vice prinicipal but the security guard who broke the little girl's arm was not. This is so outrageous. First the Jena 6, then the Megan Williams now this!!! The world has officially gone crazy and the worst part 90% of the media is controlled by people with the same racist ideaology. I was watching CNN the other day and there was a story on about some baseball player signing a kids baseball cap "Yankees suck" but I did not see a damn thing about Megan Williams because America doesnt want to know about a group of good ol Ameican white boys gang raping a young black single mother....and they say that racism is dead. Watch Current TV you might learn something about the real world the doesn't include baseball signatures and Mississippi bake offs.

  • Sorry, but this really sounds like a one-sided story. I just have a really hard time imagining this happening like she says it happened. Now if it really did happen that way then I'm not complaining -- it just sounds fishy.

  • Does anyone have an update of what happened in this case, or has it been forgotten like most of the cases like these???

    It looks like the accusations continue. A bunch of parents are accusing various parties of racism and not investigating/punishing the guard. The LA Sheriff has cleared the guard of wrongdoing (see the link at the top of the page my link points to).

    I'm inclined to think that the LA Sheriff is unlikely to clear the guard of wrongdoing unless it's clear that he didn't do anything wrong. They certainly don't want the bad press of charges of racism.

    I'm going to reiterate my doubts about the girl's charges. I don't think I'm being racist here, either. I'm just really skeptical that such overt racism as is being accused could be exercised in an LA area school, with as much media attention this has gotten, with the guilty parties going unpunished.
