      During the GWOT, people used to talk about the Taliban being bad. I remember having a conversation with people here who didn’t realize we used to behead and burn people alive here well into the 20th century.

      They were only 65 years removed from the Civil War and still angry about losing their slaves.

    4. This was a photographic postcard of the lynching of Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith, taken by Lawrence Beitler.

      Shipp and Smith were murdered by a mob in Marion, Indiana on August 7, 1930.

      5000+ people attended this, just one of the sickest documented lynchings in our rich history of bigotry and murder.

      Isnt this the picture Patrice O’neal was talking about when he said some of these people are still alive?

    7. Is this racism?

      “Four (black) teenagers are accused of carjacking (white) Linda Frickey and dragging her about 700 feet behind her vehicle until she was dismembered and died.”

      Are you all now sufficiently riled up to get your day started? That’s quite unhealthy mentally and physically, especially on a daily basis.
