[…]  Bottom line: unless white Hispanic Ted Cruz confesses to the killing of Chambers, expect this Mississippi burning story to die. Holder’s DOJ has no more interest in seeing it solved than do the media”…

Jack Cashill – In August 1955, Emmett Till, a 14-year-old Chicago boy, was brutally beaten and shot for allegedly flirting with a white woman in a Mississippi delta town.
Ever since, and especially in the Obama years, the charlatans who preside over the vestiges of the civil rights movement and their media allies have been looking for a new Emmett Till. Predictably, they have been looking in all the wrong places.
One place they have chosen not to look is Courtland, Mississippi, a small town in Panola County an hour south of Memphis. There, on Dec. 6, firefighters responding to a car fire found 19-year-old Jessica Chambers near death.
Burned over 98 percent of her body, Chambers had been left for dead by her killer or killers, but she had lived long enough to share some information with the first responders.
The case has “Till” written all over it. The town is a backwater. Its officials are sketchy. Its denizens are straight out of Faulkner, but in that Chambers was white and blond, the major media have no interest in reporting the story. They fear where it might lead.
The media much prefer the tale of a black innocent victimized by a racist white, even if they have to fictionalize the narrative. With a president to re-elect and a base to excite, they revived this largely dormant story line in February 2012 with the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida.
The “Till” card got a ton of play in the Martin shooting, all of it preposterous. Said Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump, insulting those who know their history, “Trayvon Martin will forever remain in the annals of history next to Medgar Evers and Emmett Till, as symbols for the fight for equal justice for all.”
Till, of course, was brutally lynched. The courageous civil rights leader Evers took a bullet in the back from a racist assassin in 1963 Mississippi.  (continue reading)
