Well, I have family who fled Mississippi during the 1940s. My grandparents were part of the 2nd wave of the Great Migration. My father was born and raised in Wisconsin as a result of this. My grandparents could not live with the tyranny of the plantation-like society that was mid-20th century Mississippi. It could have easily been a member of my family that was subjected to what Emmett Till was subjected to.
And something else. I don't have any family members that dealt with the Holocaust or Japanese internment camps. I'm not going to pose in front of a Holocaust monument or a monument to Japanese-Americans interned in the camps with the intentions of mocking them. I'm not going to pose with guns. I understand right from wrong, and I'm going to be outraged if someone did such a thing at a WWII memorial, Holocaust memorial, internment camp,etc. I don't put up with crap like that. It's called empathy. It's called knowing better.
Like I said, if you want to talk about black on white rape, go start a thread about it. You only mention it on this thread because you want to deflect from the subject of this thread. Like I said, this was neither the time or the place for it. You want to talk about that subject, nothing is stopping you from starting a thread about it. Just don't bring it here.
Not if they didn't do crazy **** like Emmett Till did.
Nothing Emmett Till did was worth killing him. Nothing. Making a pass at a woman is not a cause for killing someone. What those men did was murder. Anyone who feels otherwise is showing alot of moral bankruptcy.
Disgusting pukes. They should all be forced to view the pic of Till's face as he layed in his casket.
