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 Kimbo 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, Conn.
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 pump 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 lady 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 easy? 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 US 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
Democratic senator from the State of New York----our former First
Lady, the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton.
And now, as Paul Harvey said; You know "the
rest of the story".
