Ken Lay's "Persecution" Compared To Hate Crime Victim At Funeral

Ken Lay praised and defended by family and friends

Rev. William Lawson speaks at Ken Lay's funeral, talking about how "lucky" he was to have known Lay. Then this happens:

Lawson likened Lay to James Byrd, a black man who was dragged to death in a racially motivated murder near Jasper eight years ago.

"Ken Lay was neither black nor poor, as James Byrd was, but I'm angry because Ken was the victim of a lynching," said Lawson, who predicted that history will vindicate Lay.

Keep on dreaming.
