Conveniently Forgotten Facts.

Back in 1969, a group of Black Panthers decided
that a fellow black panther named Alex Rackley,
needed to die.
Rackley was suspected of disloyalty.



Rackley was first tied to a chair.
Once safely immobilized, his friends
tortured him for hours by, among other things,
pouring boiling water on him.



When they got tired of torturing Rackley,
Black Panther member, Warren Kimbro
took Rackley outside and put a bullet in his head.
Rackley's body was later found floating in a river
about 25 miles north of New Haven, Connecticut.



Perhaps at this point you're curious
as to what happened to these Black Panthers.?
In 1977, that's only eight years later,
only one of the killers was still in jail.



The shooter, Warren Kimbro, managed to
get a scholarship to Harvard and
became good friends with none other than Al Gore.
He later became an assistant dean at an
Eastern Connecticut State College.



Isn't that something.!



As a '60s radical, you can pu mp a bullet into
someone's head and a few years later, in the same
state, you can become an assistant college dean.!



Only in America.!



Erica Huggins was the woman who
served the Panthers by boiling the water
for Mr. Rackley's torture.
Some years later, Ms. Huggins was elected
to a California School Board.



How in the world do you think
these killers got off so easily.?



Maybe it was in some part due to the efforts of two
people who came to the defense of the Panthers.



These two people actually went so far as to
shut down Yale University with demonstrations
in defense of the accused Black Panthers
during their trial.



One of these people was none other than
Bill Lan Lee. Mr. Lee, or Mr. Lan Lee,
as the case may be, isn't a college dean.
He isn't a member of a California School Board.
He is now head of the United States
Justice Department's Civil Rights Division,
appointed by none other than Bill Clinton.



O.K., so who was the other Panther defender.?
Is this other notable Panther defender
now a school board member.?
Is this other Panther apologist
now an assistant college dean.?
No, neither.!



The other Panther defender was, like Lee,
a radical law student at Yale University at the time.
She is now known as
The "smartest woman in the world."
She is none other than the former
Democratic senator from the State of New York----
our former First Lady,
and the former Secretary of State,
the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton.



And now, as Paul Harvey said;
"You know the rest of the story".



Pass this on.!
This deserves the widest possible press.
Remember this during her campaign
to become our next President.!

Quote:The Truth:


This eRumor has developed a life of its own with differing interpretations of what is true or not true about it.


It circulated widely during Hillary Rodham Clinton’s year 2000 run for the U.S. Senate.

According to published accounts, Alex Rackley was a Panther recruit from New York who was tortured and killed in New Haven, Connecticut because he was suspected of being a police informant. Twelve Panthers were indicted including Warren Kimbro, Erica Huggins, and Panther leader Bobby Seale. Contrary to the email, Kimbro was not proven to be the “shooter” and did not stand trial, but did plead guilty to second degree murder. He was later released from prison and admitted to Harvard. We have not found evidence that he was a college dean. Another Panther was convicted of having fired the fatal shot and was sentenced to life in prison. Huggins and Seale were tried together, but the jury deadlocked and their cases were dismissed.

The Bobby Seales trial drew protests, not because the protestors approved of murder, but they felt that the Panthers were being treated unfairly by the authorities and that Seales, who was not personally involved in the killing, should not have been tried. There were demonstrations at Yale, but they were peaceful, did not “shut down” the university. Hillary was not an attorney at that time (which is what some of the versions of this email seem to suggest), but a student at Yale and, according to Roger Morris, author of PARTNERS IN POWER, helped organize shifts of students to monitor the courtroom.

John Elvin of Insight magazine looked into the Hillary-Panthers eRumor as well as how it was handled by some urban legends sites and wrote his findings in an article that appeared in July of 2000. He quotes former sixties radical David Horowitz as saying that both Hillary Rodham and Bill Lann Lee organized demonstrations at Yale against the Panther trial. Elvin also says, “Insight reviewed biographies of Hillary Clinton by Milton, Brock and Roger Morris for this story and lengthy selections from such other biographies as Barbara Olson’s [beeep] to Pay. Together, relying on primary and other firsthand sources, they unquestionably back Horowitz’s contention that Hillary was a campus leader during the Panther protests.”

Conservative commentator Joseph Farah says she also assisted Seales’ lawyer, Charles Garry.

That was all a long time ago and most of us would not want to be characterized by our views and activities in college or graduate school, but, for whatever it’s worth, they do become a part of our story.



i get a lot of stuff like this from my bro's father in law via e-mail. usually i have to do the background searching to figure out the facts from the embellishment (or even outright lies). its kinda nice to see one that - sort of anyway - debunks itself at the bottom. most folks dont bother to click on the "its true, click here to verify" links and just forward them on.


dont feel bad man, i've gotten caught in some of them too for not fact checking them
