5. I thnk some folks don't know the context |
|
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APZ3-Lcbwmc">Youtube The Black Panther calling for the murder of whites in this video is the same guy the Justice Department let walk (after getting an uncontested conviction) for brandishing a truncheon at a polling place in the last presidential election.

7. Just providing the context |
|
that many people commenting didn't seem to be aware of.
King Samir Shabazz, the guy who said, "You want freedom you’re going to have to kill some crackers. You’re going to have to kill some of their babies," is the leader of the Philadelphia New Black Panther Party. I don't think it is correct to portray him as 'ONE person', he clearly has a following.
He was the one holding the truncheon at a polling place. I don't know why Holder let this guy walk. I suppose you could test whether or not the law is colorblind by putting on a homemade uniform, taking a weapon to the polling place, and reversing the target of the same comments.

14. The article concludes with |
|
"Cord Jefferson of the The Root, a black-issues Web site, says the case is spurious, but that Justice must explain itself further. But Abigail Thernstrom, a white conservative member of the Commission on Civil Rights, complains that it's all light and no heat:
Get a grip, folks. The New Black Panther Party is a lunatic fringe group that is clearly into racial theater of minor importance ... This case is a one-off. There are plenty of grounds on which to sharply criticize the attorney general—his handling of terrorism questions, just for starters—but this particular overblown attack threatens to undermine the credibility of his conservative critics.
Thernstrom may be right, but she misses the point. Like the ACORN case, it's not about a real investigation; it's about staging an effective piece of political theater that hurts the Obama administration."

"is the surroundings, circumstances, environment, background, or settings which determine, specify, or clarify the meaning of an event."
Why is the guy at the Glen Beck rally wearing a shirt about protecting "white cracker babies"?
Because Glen Beck is showing a crazy black nationalist openly advocating killing "crackers" and their "white babies" to free blacks on his TV show.
Beck is showing this guy because he was involved in a voter intimidation case that Obama's Justice Department decided to chuck after they obtained a conviction.
I think I have a firm handle of the concept of context. If you disagree, can you be more specific?
