Oh, this is rich

The North Carolina NAACP wants everyone--especially the defense--to shut up about the Duke rape case while the state's Attorney General looks into the matter.

Sure thing, guys.

According to NAACP counsel Al McSurely and William Barber:

1) The defense attorneys are trying the case in the media, poisoning any potential pool of Durham jurors with biased information!
a. Despite being the author of a list of 82 "Crimes and Torts committed by Duke Lacrosse Team Players" on the state NAACP's news Web site
2) McSurely said he and the organization he represents have always advocated for the fair treatment of "both sides. "

3) N.C. NAACP president, Rev. William Barber expressed satisfaction with a statement made by Attorney General Roy Cooper in pledging to "accept these cases with our eyes wide open to the evidence, but with blinders on to all other distractions."
a. Yet Barber has tried to contact the AG, and since he can’t, he’s going to be, “sending the AG a note.” Apparently Barber believes that the AG is going to keep blinders to all outside distractions, except for the NAACP.

By the way, where are all the misguided crusaders screaming "Take back the night!" now?

We haven't heard much from them after they jumped at the chance to get in front of the media's cameras.
