Jena is a small southern town with hospitality and beautiful southern bells, what has happen is that bullies have decided to demand that they get what ever anyone else has including a tree. We want the Tree, so it came down to tree huggers loving the tree or greedy bullies beating up tree huggers. if you watch the story honestly you will hear that the black students admit to "Not seeing a Noose", merely a rope. Bullies take their power by confrontation, and violence I hope you will denounce violence and beatings.
