    You are stupid. You were never lynched and neither was anyone you know. Here’s a fact: whites were lynched in almost as great of numbers as blacks were.

    As I said, I am not disputing this.. THe first comment is NOT me.

    Though, I take offense to being called a pussy, my intention is NOT to argue with you. If you had READ you would KNOW the offensive comment isn’t mine… I have absolutely NOTHING against ANY of this and I agree with you that it’s horrible!

    well next time dont call someone stupid and i call you a pussy because you wont man up and admit that you worte it. how the hell was it not you WTF.

    November 6, 2009 at 9:43 am

    Okay dude… you clearly just want to be all angry and stuff and NOT look at what I had written in response to even FINDING this. So.. fuck off. I NEVER called anyone stupid OR ANY names, but I will now.. DICK. Thanks for believing me… no… really… thanks.

    Wow its sad that this conversation even happened. Even if that was Sean nothing he said was offensive. Its just a fact. You know no one who was lynched so shut the fuck up. Also those white people you see today never lynched anyone and probably don’t condone such a thing. Its so sad, people like you create racism. If people cry racism all the time like you eventually people are going to be. One last thing. How stupid is this: “white people took us from our land in africa brought us here then abused and killed us.” fist you have it a hell of a lot better now than you would if you lived if Africa so shut up. It seems kinda funny that Africa was the only place where they were incapable of making any sort of technical advances of become civilized at all, I guess they’ve just been repressed by us white people on a different continent.(And for god sakes that not an excuse enslaving anyone just a thought, so please don’t cry racist like I know you will, because I’m not) But hey if you’d rather live there then go ahead. Second when you say “us” I think your kinda confused because nobody did shit to you. You should be thankful that you live where you do today and not take your completely irrational anger out on people that didn’t do anything to you.

    Now The Fact Of The Matter Is How Dare You Say That Basicly It Was Good That Africans Were Abused Beaten Killed And Tortured. We Could Have Came Here Another Way. We Didnt Have To Be Slaves To Be The Way We Are Now. I Appriceate The Pain And Suffering My Ancestors Took But Did They Really Deserve It? To Be Perfectly Honest America Would Not Be They Way Is Without The Blood Shed From My Ancestors Backs. Its A Shame You Look At It As If It Was Past Get Over It. Well What If The Past Was The Present Then What Wuld You Say? That Is All I Have To Say.

  16. Mr. Adams Says:

    ok first of all this is terrible and a terrible time in history and i am shocked how some ppl. can feel such hatred to people who they do not even know. but i would also just like to say that just because african americans have gone through a lot in history, doesnt mean they should be able to have the attitude that they all of a sudden deserve things just because their ancestors had hard times. ALL of our ancestors, black, white, etc. had bad things occur to them over time. And I live in the south where racism is most prominent and i must say that the only racism i see, is black people against whites. not the other way around. So i think african americans need to move on and stop calling whites racist, because many times, the african americans are the racist ones. And just look at how many behave themselves, it is no wonder that some people have a problem with them, all the gang activity and trying to be gangster and cool is just completely uncivilized and shows lack of tact and education.
    But once again for the record, i am not a racist and i believe the KKK was a horrible organization and no one deserves to be treated like that.

    im white, yet i still think these things are horrible, and these white-ignorant fools should, and will go to hell. looking at these pictures people think that just cause theyre black they committed the accused crime they commited, but they didnt always do it, and even if they did, these bastered should back off, and let these men be punished for what they did the correct way, prison. Either way this black man will have a better future than all those white men put together, in the hands of the lord, while these white men are destroyed everyday for the rest of eternity.

    After reading this whole retarted conversation im now thinking, “WTF” people get a life. The only reason im in this conversation is because i was looking for pics for an asignment i needed to do. I do agree with some of these comments.

    After reading this whole retarted conversation im now thinking, WOW, people get a life. The only reason im in this conversation is because i was looking for pics for an asignment i needed to do. I do agree with some of these comments.
    It is true that us “White Folk” mistreated blacks, but what would be of this country if we hadnt. without the abuse, and us “taking” black people from Africa (which in some cases was a lie, some actually chose to come here) this country would be like Africa, if not worse.
    Also, most racism in this country is from the blacks, and most beating and killings of whites are from blacks, but that does not mean these lynching were the right thing to do. They weren’t, and i will never believe they were, but now it is true that Africa is making little to no tecnoligical advancements, and we are.
    I think that people that believe that Africans should have never come to this country are very misled, because when “we” were a developing country who do you think made it possible. The African-Americans.
    Now i do think that some people are right when they say this country has to many crimes done by blacks, but going along with that, nearly 75% of all people in jail are black. thats an estimation.
    i do think that these lynchings are horrible, but the racist blacks, and white that live here today should think, were would we be without the enslavement, and beating of the blacks, jews, whites affiliated with black, and gays? We would be nowhere.

    i have to say i aggree completely with chrisjg24fan, and Marie D. what they have said is very true and real, most racism comes from blacks now-a-days….just a few days ago, a group of african american’s thought it would be funny to see how high the “little white kid” would jump when they grabbed his butt. And we did every thing. I very much disagree with lynching, and i am not racist, so please do not give me hell for expressing my freedom of speech….and romario does indeed need a life….just throwing that out there, and i know how this all works, ecause well i live way done south so try saying whites are the only racist ones. We’re not.

    and btw Jennifer, i sure hope that you were not referring to the kkk, and were instead talking about halloween, because i do believe you went to far on that note. I dont support the kkk or the horror that backs suffered through during history but like others have said before me, they were not alone

  26. Ian Says:

  37. Chris BLACK Says:

    First of all for the fools that say blacks should feel lucky that white folks stole us from Africa and that there was no technological advancements is so uneducated.
    All of civilization trys to mimic and is still mezmorized by the technological advancments of the black people of Egypt.
    Also it took the whole world from Europe to the Arabs to gang up on us because we have the best most fertile part of the planet.
    The foundation of ALL white knowlede and education is based in Africa.
    When you go to museums you only see AFRICAN artifacts because white people have no history or culture so if they want to know what happened in the past they need to go to AFRICA to do their research.
    If we’re so stupid why was it ilegal to teach blacks to read? What were they afraid of.
    Africans inability to advance was deliberate.
    The only advantage you had over us was GUNS, your secret weapon, the lightning stick.

    I have to say I kind of agree with what Clint is saying, but i really think everyone on this page, myself included, need to get out of the past and realize what is now, and what happened happened. This whole argument started when someone said “we”, as if they were actually a part of this monstrosity. Now it has just turned into a pissing contest, which no one will win, because we could spend years finding little things that would make one side win a little bit more than the other, this is just pathetic and degrading. Again i agree with what Clint had to say.
