YOu stated it as though the 3 "racists" in Georgia, just decided to attack some random black guy and murder him.
There is always a "reason" for a lynching. He looked at a white lady. He was on my property for some suspicious reason...he was uppity...
List of lynching victims in the United States - Wikipedia
DId the lynching victims always start a fight with the "lynchers"?
If someone was trying to lynch you, would you fight?
If someone pointed a shot gun at me and told me to stand there, while they called the cops, I would probably not fight.
When did Travis tell him that? You don't know what you will do, it's easy to say what you will do when you are not in that situation.
I would probably threaten to press charges later, and make them grovel and apologize, if not pay me off big time.
I wonder how many times that worked? Never.
But fighting fists vs shotgun, not my first choice.
It was probably his only choice.
If the video shows Travis just getting out of his truck and opening fire, I will admit it was a lynching.
If teh video shows Travis getting out of his truck and brandishing the gun and NOT just opening up and Arbery then fighting, will you admit that it was NOT a lynching, and instead was botched vigilantism?
What part of they chased this young man down brandishing weapons don't you understand? One clown hit the man with his truck.
You are the one that called in a lynching. A lynching is extra judicial punishment.
Chasing him down, brandishing weapons with the intent of holding him for the police, would not be that.
What part of that are you not getting?
Didn’t you guys just try to lynch mike pence?
If by "you guys" you mean a few people at one riot that we don't know who they are yet,
then no. It was not us as a group.
Neither were the people who rioted this summer. That was not us as a group.
And they may not have been you personally but you all personally defended the rioters. Didn’t you?
1. It was not you as a group. But you as a group, defended the rioters, and supported them.
2. Depends what you mean by "Defend". I did not state that the violence was justified. I have pointed out that I do not think it was a serious attempt to overthrow the government, as some have claimed.
How Biden Is Erasing Trump’s White Supremacist Legacy
Biden issued an executive order. On top of the executive order, the White House’s push to raise the minimum wage would have outsize effects on African Americans, helping to narrow the black-white income gap.
The executive order on racial justice erased two of the Trump administration’s most blatantly racist policies. Biden reversed Trump’s move to ban all federal agencies and contractors from conducting any kind of diversity training or programs that dealt with concepts like systemic racism or white privilege.
The order also got rid of Trump’s “1776 Commission,” an attempt to
whitewash American history by playing down, even excusing slavery.
Increasing the minimum wage to $15 an hour would give 38% of Black workers a raise compared with 23% of white workers, according to research cited by economists writing for
Equitable Growth.
