Derek Chauvin Guilty

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Lots of Whites also lynched in the beginning:

Most lynchings were a form of community law enforcement and those lynched were accused of rape, murder and cattle theft. (Quite a few innocent people were lynched.)
'interesting...

While some whites were lynched for murder or stealing cattle, there is another important reason many were lynched. Many whites were lynched for helping blacks or being anti-lynching. According to David Barton’s extensively well-documented book, "Setting the Record Straight: American History in Black & White," the original targets of the Ku Klux Klan were Republicans, both black and white.

The Klan terrorized both black and white Americans not to vote for Republican tickets. “Of all forms of violent intimidation, lynchings were by far the most effective.” Republicans often led the efforts to pass federal anti-lynching laws and their platforms consistently called for a ban on lynching. “Democrats successfully blocked those bills and their platforms never did condemn lynchings.”

So there it is, the inconvenient truth. The truth that more than 1,000 whites were lynched and many of them were lynched because they were Republican, because they supported their fellow black citizens and because they opposed the lawless act of lynching.

Not sure what % of Whites were lynched for rape and murder versus helping Blacks. Data collection was not so great in the 19th century South.

Again, an attempt at humor. The data above show the number of recorded lynchings, not the reasons for each lynching.

Someone's hangin' in me living room and I think he’s dead.
