    Interesting- You Can Give Me The “We Don’t Know That”

    THIS WILL OPEN YOUR EYES!

    >>> By Paul Harvey

    >>>

    >>> 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 , Connecticut

    >>>

    >>> Perhaps at this point you’re curious as to

    >>> what h appened 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 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

    >>> 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 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

    >>> 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”.

    >>> Pass this on! This deserves the widest

    >>> possible press.

    >>> Also remember it, when, she runs for President.

    Yep Apple..Snopes is a great site…..amazing how many “stories” are just a bunch of BS
    As a long time listener of Mr.Harvey I know I have never heard him do this one.
    BTW Paul Harvey does not write “The Rest of the story”…His son does.

    For me to trust Snopes.com I need a few answers!! Its just that I am curious as to why Snopes.com is the judge and jury on validity of stories that circulate on websites and in emails. Who runs Snopes.com? I’ve been trying to find this out but am unable to get any info on them and who backs the website. If I am to believe Snopes is accurate then I need to know who they are.

    Thanks for any info!

    Well Mo this is what their website says but I did a little reseach on them myself awhile back and they came out ok….to me…..

    Q: How do I know the information you’ve presented is accurate?

    A: We don’t expect anyone to accept us as the ultimate authority on any topic, which is why our site’s name indicates that it contains reference pages. Unlike the plethora of anonymous individuals who create and send the unsigned, unsourced e-mail messages that are forwarded all over the Internet, we show our work. The research materials we’ve used in the preparation of any particular page are listed in the bibliography displayed at the bottom of that page so that readers who wish to verify the validity of our information may check those sources for themselves.

    Your right…ALLWAYS ask questions….too many just accept anything they read

    There is also another good website to check the authenticity of stories like this. It is called breakthechain.org
