    Default Found this on facebook...

    Checked my email today. A friend sent me a link to join a group called: "Students against the rape of Megan Williams and media that ignores her"
    This is the full article from the group:

    "It amazes me that articles of negativity against "black Americans" can always make the headline news, but situations like this just go un-noticed. OJ Simpson is back in jail again and we have heard about that since the 1st day it began and will hear about it from now until this time next year, instead of treating OJ Simpson's case like any other similar crime, but how much have you heard about this? It's sad to think this is 2007 and so many things still have not changed!



    This happened in West Virginia, USA very recently and on Wednesday, 9/12th 2007, Megan Williams was still being treated for this in the hospital.




    She was Tortured and Raped for a whole week, by Six White individuals, Three males and Three Females Between the ages of 20 and 49.




    CNN normally does not reveal sexual assault victims' names. But Williams, who is hospitalized, and her mother, Carmen Williams, wanted her identity revealed.
    Police said Bobby Brewster raped Williams, forced her to lick blood and drink from a toilet, and told his mother to kill Williams if she tried to escape.
    Authorities previously said Williams was also forced to eat rat and dog feces.
    According to criminal complaints filed in the county, Williams was assaulted, stabbed in the left leg, choked with cords and beaten for at least a week. When she was found, big parts of her hair had also been torn off of her scalp.
    Williams says that Alisha Burton 22 cut her ankle with a knife while saying, "That's what we do to Niggers around here," police records show

    "I don't understand a human being doing another human being the way they did my daughter," Carmen Williams told The Associated Press on Tuesday from her daughter's hospital room. "I didn't know there were people like that out here."
    Deputies received a tip and Saturday visited a home owned by Frankie Brewster in Big Creek, West Virginia.
    As the deputies spoke with a woman on the front porch, "a female inside the residence limped toward the door with her arms held out, saying 'Help me,' " according to a news release from the sheriff's department.
    "It's something you'd expect to see in a horror movie, not in Logan County," Abraham said. "She was subjected to unendurable torture down there."

    The six are charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, malicious wounding and battery. If convicted of kidnapping, a suspect could face a sentence of up to life in prison. The penalty for first-degree sexual assault is 15 to 35 years.
    Abraham said he is seeking the maximum sentence on the kidnapping charges. In addition to the Brewsters, the suspects are Danny J. Combs, 20, of Harts, West Virginia; and George A. Messer, 27, Karen Burton, 46, and her daughter, Alisha Burton, 23, all of Chapmanville, West Virginia.
    "They all have previous records and have been arrested numerous times," Sheriff W.E. Hunter said Tuesday. "They are familiar to law enforcement."
    Frankie Brewster was charged with first-degree murder in 1994, but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter in the death of an 84-year-old woman. She was released in 2000 after serving five years in prison, according to court records cited by the AP.
    All of the six individuals that are involved in this case are accused of 108 different cases of crimes all combined.
    All six were being held in lieu of $100,000 bail, and all requested court-appointed attorneys, the AP reported.
    Investigators are still looking for two other people suspected of driving Williams to the home, according to the AP.
    Carmen Williams had not reported her daughter missing, saying Megan Williams often disappeared for weeks at a time.
    Carmen Williams said she is "horrified" by her daughter's injuries.
    "She wakes up crying, and the first thing she hollers is 'Mommy,' " she said. "

    I agree this is a horrible thing but there's no conspiracy to ignore it. I've known abut this since it came out...
    It has been all over Fox news, Court TV, and even a local TV station here in South Florida.

    Lol what? I'm horrible with english vocab. Anyways, yeah, this world is messed up. But, little things like these groups might hopefully change it. If not, beatings always work! Look at the past, kids were beat when they did wrong and there was no crime. Con: Kids grew up a little messed up.

    Vicarious means to learn from watching others. That's an excerpt from a Tool song that I find way too accurate.

    Yes this story was not hidden from view (plastered all over the media from day one and still is on major news sites as an update), nor is there any conspiracy to hide it.

    Face it, in today's society the OJ story will trump other stories like this. News organizations are out to make money and OJ's face is a better money maker in some people minds.

    I turned on CNN the other day, and do you know what I saw? A 30 min piece on "Tommy Lee buys a house". WTF? Who CARES?!

    I swear to God, CNN is just another tabloid now.. sensationalism garbage, reporting on junk to get ratings, not to actually inform people. BOYCOTT CNN!!!

    Yes... and ironically enough, it's the same 'media' card the Facebook group is playing:

    I say to boycott TV and just buy DVDs of what you want to watch, there's no ads and you can view it whatever and not worry about censorship, there we go.

    But yeah, I hate the news, my life has enough drama without me needing to lose what little faith I have left in the human race by watching it (the news) or soap operas. Srsly. Dem soap operas dun' naed sum soap.

    This might sound wierd to some, but I'm very, very critical of what I let into my brain.

    I watch under 4 hours of TV per week... without a doubt.
    I watch little movies (both on DVD, or going to the theater).
    I play my Halo a fair bit.


    News today are just toxic.

    Books, audio books/programs, productive internet, physical stuff.


    Now, dusting this guys off:::
