Lynching is what happened to mostly Black americans who were grabbed from their homes and often from jails and with the tactic support of "police" were murdered by white people. Of course a few Jews and others got lynched too as all "others" were at risk. Almost no lynching cases ever resulted in a prosecution or a conviction. How dare you suggest that Chauvin is being lynched. Disgusting. Your word choice was not hyperbole so don't use that as an excuse.
Here's real lynching not so long ago here in Florida. Yes it's long, but read it and let the images burn into your memory so you'll never use the term lynching again to describe the Chauvin trial |
Your vitriolic response was predictable. And I stand with my original assessment.
