Burning the American flag doesn't fall in that same category?
Nobody's been killed by a burning American flag, have they? Besides, no one (at least in this country) is arguing that Americans should be killed when they burn the flag. They are saying they disagree with the policies of the government.
The police, the DA, and the whole system in Jena needs to be investigated and serious measures need to be taken. There is obviously deep seated racism in Jena.
As I said before, I think the DA is largely to blame for all the crap that has happened. If you had a slightly smarter DA, who didn't provoke the black populace, this would have probably been a non-national story. Whether that's a good or bad thing is up for debate.
