WHAT I can’t OVERstand is , WHERE were all these Black high profile attorneys BEFORE Troy was murdered? HOW COME they DID NOT represent Troy WHEN this happened? We have all these attorneys on radio stations, how come they are Monday quarterbacks, but waited 20 damn years BEFORE they TRIED to represent him? HOW COME Alley didn’t bring this to the surface 20 years ago? WHY are they talking all this bulls**t after Troy is now dead?

I ain’t hating, I’m just bringing up questions!

WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHY AND HOW COME?

I wish people (especially black people) would stop saying this was a miscarriage of justice. The justice system as established by those in power in this God-forsaken country worked perfectly when they murdered Troy Davis. The only miscarriage that accorded that day was they had to kill one of their own for killing a “n****r.”

what the hell you talking about..you must be white using that hate term and secondly if you do your research you would know that this man was not guilty. So how was this justice? :@

Sigh…re-read the comment.

Dammit! I said that 3 days ago!!!!! I TOLD you Shapton is a PHONEY, but you won’t listen, SMDH…..

Go back to apefrica if you don’t like it here nigga women

Sharpton should have been on this the DAY HE OPENED WITH HIS SHOW!

I agree with you, Iwillbfree. Where were they. Now, that this young man’s life was cut short, unjustifiably, everyone is talking about what should have been. Any BLACK leader that allowed this travesty of injustice to happen, are all to blame. Anyone that says that this was the correct thing to do is utterly stupid and dumb. You do not know the facts. That I can tell by your comment. Troy Davis was not a murderer. The state of Georgia is the murderer. But, the really sad thing about all of this is they cannot bring him back, with their apologies. RIP Mr. Davis.

Vanity 357—This could happen to you too.

Re-read the comment. It is not an injustice because the system was established to keep black people in their place. Therefore, Troy Davis is a victim of the justice system as it was created by white people which means by THOSE standards it is not an injustice. Until we stand up to what is going on, it will continue to be the standard.

Good Lord, I try, but I’m really beginning to wonder if reading comprehension is lost on this generation.

Maybe this will help you understand, it’s about money!, a black ,white ,spanish lawyer is in it for the all mighty $$, 99% of the time. they get involved when they see free air-time or $ signs. troy davis was a nobody in the world of get me on camera, get me my check$, and in the world of al sharpton, cornel west, maxine waters, jerimiah white,and tamika mallory he meant nothing. You people are not getting it, it’s not about black/white anymore, it’s about class war-fare!

I know what you’re saying, BUT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT B-L-A-C-K if you are a Black man, wo-man or child! Yes, money and class plays a part, but the ‘MAIN CHARACTERS’ are Black folks.

LOOK AT THAT WHITE BOY THEY LET OFF FROM BEING ELECTROCUTED…he was a cracker and Troy was Black!

I REST MY CASE!

Alley must play second fiddle to caucasoids!

If it was gods choice to take troy then nothing could ve been done to stop this. Troy chose his path in the past which haunted him. Karma is a %$#@&

I fell if you do the crime youy get what you you get so sick of people thinking that it OK to do things to other people without no repercutions

You fake plastic, weave wearing negroid, I guess it was ‘gods’ choice to ENSLAVE Black people for 500 plus years? I guess it was ‘gods’ choice that pigs, who kill innocent Black people seldom die or go to prison for their evil deeds? I guess it was ‘gods’ choice that rich caucasoids are sending jobs to china and other poor nations for THEIR economic greed? BUT, THESE CAUCASOIDS BLAME O’DRAMA, while Clintonboy, started sending jobs overseas when he was in office!

AND I AIN’T NO O’DRAMA SUPPORTER!

GO PUT ON SOME CLOTHES, FAKE NEWSFUN SCALLY WAG!

this is “INJUSTICE”, police beating a down syndrome 22 yr old is “INJUSTICE” and the whole damn system is WHAT YOU GONNA DO!?!?!?!????????????? YEAH YOU READING THIS RIGHT NOW, WHAT YOU GOING TO DO?

I agree with u Rev, we must rectify the injustices that are plagued against the black, brown and poor in these USTates. I think a boycott against Georgia; should be the first thing on the agenda.

I tought the same thing,never heard of Troy Davis on Black radio or TV till last week.The white power structure is sending a message,they are getting the masses prepared for executions by the state,Nazi style.Malcolm X warned us in the last message how this nation is no different than Nazi Germany when it comes down to us.This execution was meant to work on the psychic of the mind,traumatize and shock,paralyze the mind.But the masses will forget,it will be business as usual,as Malcolm X said,the devil is on a rampage.

This was depressing on more than one side. The code of silence that keeps one from pointing out the real killer. If Davis had revealed the real killer, who was with him at the time of the murder, he, Troy Davis, and/or his family members would have been killed. I truly believe the courts knew this as well as knowing that he was not the killer. Were they using Troy to send a message? Whatever they were doing, I strongly feel they had a responsibility of proving without a shadow of a doubt that he was the killer which they could not do. Troy did not lie when he left; he stuck with the truth protecting his family.

They all know about that code of silence. The cops have a blue code of silence. Snitching can cost your life; it does. Parents be careful who your children hang out with.

Sharpton and Judge Mathis know about the “code of silence”. Again, parents check out who your kids are hanging out with.

Overall the brother and vast % of black people have been souled out and don’t even know it.

Yeah, right on. I never even heard about this case before, So all of a sudden, Boooommmm, We are supposed to support this just because of the talking heads who need exposure in the media. They love these guys in prison so much, then they alone should support them and put money on their books and pay for their lawyers. Don’t wait until a day or two before they are ready to walk that last mile, The full blast, the Sharpton’s and West and Smiley are all over themselves, in the media, like they some champion of the people, What ? the people who commit crimes against other people. Where are they now, ( sic ) Won’t hear from them until another big story hits the media, Just like those guys who listens to police traffic reports, ( accident chasers ), with their tow trucks ready to roll, and hack lawyers trying to make a fast buck, these guys got their, ears on and antenna up, storm chasers that’s about all, this guys are good for. Just this past weekend alone, in the Country , how many black men have killed other black people, I don’t hear nobody up in rage over that! When do the people get to shout , the threat is dead, we can walk the streets in safety, for a minute.

AL MY FRIEND..YOUR OPINION IS NO LONGER THE VOICE OF TRUE EMANCIPATION YOU WERE BEFORE YOU BECAME ‘MAINSTREAM.’..NOW YOU ARE EXPECTED TO CRY ‘FOUL’ AND IT NO LONGER HAS THE IMPACT IT ONCE DID…AND I SUPPORTED YOU WHEN OUR MORE WELL OFF, AND SO CALLED INTELLIGENT MEMBERS OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY WERE CALLING YU A JOKE…

IF WE HONOR THE MEMORY OF TROY; IT SHOULD BE BY REMEMBERING, THAT THE ONLY THING THAT HAS CHANGED IS THE DATE AND THE TACTICS..THE GAME IS STILL THE SAME AND WE SHOULD KEEP THAT IN MIND EVERYTIME WE PUT ON A SUIT AND TRY TO INTEGRATE WITH SINCERITY AS YOU HAVE DONE.

I have been told (in Church) that nuthin happens unless God permits it to happen. In view of all the moral support he was given, and all “THE PRAYERS” that went forth on his behalf, the execution of Troy Anthony Davis must have been a part of God’s permissive will. In order to make an omlet, you must crack some eggs beloved. To be more specific: “Perhaps God allowed him to be sacrificed in order to begin a serious dialogue about the injustice of Capital Punishmen?” In view of all the people who have been vindicated by DNA (some on death row), it’s obvious the Judicial System is not only racist but “FLAWED!” I heard the Officer’s Mother say (during an interview) that Troy Davis was accused of shooting another male earlier that day, and the same gun that fired those bullets fired the bullets that killed the Police Officer, but if that was the case, I wonder why they ever posponded his excution? I heard that Troy Davis was in rightstanding with God when he left this earth, therefore his trials and tribulations are over! “GLORY HALLELUJAH” So sincere, Michael Sydney Perkins

I been hearing alot of stupid people throwing their lot in with this sc**bag troy davis.first of all they HAD D.N.A. evidence against troy. the police went to troys mothers house a day after the shooting,and took a pair of shorts out of his mothers dryer,tested the shorts ,and low and behold ,the cops blood. but the judge threw this evidence out because the police did not have a search warrant for the mothers house. NOBODY ,and I mean NOBODY wants to bring this up to prove troys INNOCENCE. these people that recanted waited 16 YEARS to recant,16 YEARS.Steven Sanders NEVER recanted …His words ” you never forget someone that stands over someone and shoots ,with a smile on their face” another witness also said that troy stood over the officer and shot ” with a smile on his face” troy shot Micheal Cooper a few hours before he MURDERED the cop. Collins was with him, and testified to this fact. the bullet that they took out of Coopers mouth matched the bullet taken from the police officers chest.ballistics PROVED that these two bullets were shot from the SAME gun. OH ,DID I MENTION THE SHORTS?

The miscarriage of justice is that it took so long to kill that filthy low life murdering ghetto thug sc**. Victims family should go to his grave and piss on it.

Yes, and, now, that he is GONE, what are we going to do about it? Everything humanly possible should have been done to save this man. Am I saying that he was innocent? No. I am saying that he was not proven guilty. I will forever remember Mr. Davis looking up from the guerney at the MacPhail family, telling them to look further, that he was innocent. He was a strong wronged man. I pray for his family, who loved him dearly. To lose someone, with such uncertainty, surely cannot be an easy thing to endure. Yes, and where were the people who could have helped him? They waited up until the end to do something, that should have been done long before the end. RIP Mr. Davis.

Sharpton’s full of it as usual. He’s just a big mouth black buffoon constantly wanting attention. He has the sincerity of a piece of wilted okra.

In my personal involvement in procreations and nomenclatures in this current committe on reproduction of life, I find that the purposed issue with the name Troy Anthony (nat) Davis is a poison that should be federally investigated. Purposed cloning for the purpose of a disease plaguing our recent country of immigration of the alien’s green card. This systematic death around the calculatable southern states genre of steady racism, does indicate that this person was born to die. Due to the fact our intelligence agencies cannot or will not explore the ideation of a genetic war, frugalized to initiate a personal loss, or determine that what goes on behind the green doors of todays labs, can consitute making over another being and setting them up full and complete with afterlife effects. In other words a scientist or industrial business purveyor of available statistics can lead to a point for point reference from an analytical point of view. If that nomenclature shatters theories of incidence, but more closely indicates a storyline, like John or Jane Doe’s reason for living leads us to accept no connective tissues involved when naming your child John Doe or Jane Doe., however when the combined historical reference taps a well a little too often with always Glen’s fault for the racism, as a name Glenn has come to be reconized as a racist indicator for name reference. In other words, why would our country accept the flagrant uses indicated in the I’m A Clone Foundation, without conceeding there could also be a clear relegation of “Made for Hire”, Made for War of the Clones, Union Made indentions that tear apart the avid scientific mind. All that glitters is not gold. What if all policemen were “made to hire” and all white in a city that had people of mixed colors.? It is my contention we are in the middle of an internal security problem, that overplays KLAN, CLONNs and not enough attention for this bease called BIOTERROISM aimed and selected to perpetrate fraud and crime. When this bioterroism is not suspected but to that one individual loosing someone in their life by that same name to especially an issue of life taken by justice department, we are in a dangerous plot in the melting pot. Occidental cloning, for industrial purposes only.

thank god he’s dead

Did he believe in God?

When are these so called Black Leaders going to grow a pair and tell it like it T.I. is.

Basically Sir Sharpton Sir

Get it RIGHT

It’s more than an Miscarriage of Justice

Given the on going non stop propensity of this dynamic;

It’s an act of war

Rev. Al is more racist than anyone else I have heard of. He is a true sc**ball !!

Troy got what he deserve.
He killed that guy so shut the f**k up.

October 27, 2011

Dear Mr. Sharpton;
I am writing about the unfair and injustice my son, Andrew Essien, III received at his sentencing hearing. Andrew is a 20-year old African American, college student with a GPA of 3.6, business owner, brother of two sisters, and beloved son.
An incident occurred on May 8, 2010 in which one young man committed armed robbery; my son was at the scene but not an active participant. There were also two other co-defendants involved. My son called for his cousin to give him a ride away from these other individuals, but all were arrested. The gunman, plead guilty for his actions (but never made a statement to police and never implicated anyone else). He was sentenced to 5 years supervision with 2.5 years of imprisonment. My son however cooperated with police, told them what he saw, knew, and furthermore the victims stated that my son did not have an active part in the crimes against them. However, he was still convicted for a crime that he did not commit. On this past Monday, October 25, 2011 Andrew was sentenced the same as the gunman.
Andrew did not have a prior record nor has he ever been in trouble with the law. Yet another co-defendant received a lesser sentence of 3.5 years supervision and 1 year imprisonment. This young man also did not make a statement to police.
If the two co-defendants were not identified by victims, why did the judge sentence each one differently?

According to The Wisconsin Racial Disparities Project, (2011) Milwaukee has one of the highest racial disparities rates among African Americans, who are imprisoned at least eight times as often as European Americans. This growth was not due to growing crime rates, but to greater use of incarceration for lesser offenses and drug offenses.
I believe that high incarceration rates ruin people’s lives and make the problem worse, by making it harder for young people who have done wrong to be rehabilitated, find jobs, and become productive members of society.
I ask you, where’s the justice? I ask that you consider joining me and others in promoting awareness about unjust treatment in this city and across the Nation. Share my son’s story.
Sincerely,
A very concerned mother

Too bad about your son. Newsflash – American Africans, should be imprisoned at a rate of at least eight times as often as European Americans because they perpetrate at least eight times the number of crimes as whitey. Get control of your animals.

shut the hell up, Al. Sometimes i think you s**t… just to be able to wipe yo ass. THIS GUY KILLED! if it were one of YOUR family members… then, i’d embrace your comments and say that you REALLY DO … STAND ON YOUR BELIEFS. but … since you simply like to scream WOLF and be heard… i say… you need to shut your goddamned face on this one because … HE MURDERED and i have no sorrow for that black bastard and to weep and cry for him now… AFTER his victim’s death… after she’s locked away in a cold vault… lifeless, when she should be yet alive… you can bend over and OFFER YOURSELF to the next motherf**ker who might want to find himself in this sorry motherf**ker’s place. LET THEM KILL YOU so we can offer up the same F**KED UP excuses and say how justice has been blotched. you sorry, need-a-camera sons of B***HES will say anything to get heard. …. Rev … and i’m at: FATSDOMINO1970@YAHOO.COM, if you really want to talk

even though so many adage, that the man did shoot another person directly IN THE FACE few hours,or so prior.

RIP

either way he should have not been sent to death without i agree one thousand percent full proof.

so sad,Only early forties.

had follow this and i do agree the man should’ve had MORE black attorney(s)high profile i would have taken the case if iwas a attorney during that time. i would have brought on ,few more to help of all Racial bkgd.

just so Sad the BLACK entertainer/attorneys all the money they have IMO did Nuttin;
..

Until it was too late.

There is a local black owned community newspaper ,its free. I first read about Troy here years ago. Please support or start your own local black newspaper!!

I agree fam. We (The world) were witness to a lynching of an innocent black man! We stood by and let it happen. It was news for years and we ignored it! A dope dealer that destroys our communities get shot and we wanna hold candles and sing spirituals. This brother gets murdered “legaly” and we just watch. If he was a basketball player or a rapper, everybody would be up in arms! But since it`s a “regular” brother our people don`t care. Look around, our people cried and mourned for tupac and biggie, but Troy Davis, Kathryn Johnston, we pretend to care because it`s popular! I don`t understand. The president could have voiced his concern too, but I won`t touch that. Folks, the state of black america is starting to concern me. But judging from our rates of incarceration, abortion, drug abuse, and violence against each other, we`re goin extinct anyway. Our best and brightest choose not to reproduce, and the dumbest and “Dimmest” pop out little ones that would rather smoke weed and rob each other than educate and uplift our race!
Rappers, singers, athletes, etc are just playing into the hands of those that hate us! Just like after slavery, we are entertainment for white folk. Stop supporting this garbage people! It`s time to become doctors and lawyers, educators and policy makers! Sorry fam, I got carried away.

The BBC did a doc**entary on this miscarriage of justice over 20 years ago. It was shown on British television at the time. I find it astonishing that this case was not championed by black politicians, activists and chattering classes in all that time. It’s shameful that this injustice only became a cause celebre days before the state took his life.
How come I knew about this man’s plight in the UK over 20 years ago and Black America knew zilch? Frightening!
