That kid brought that shit on himself. He did something stupid in a place he shouldn’t have AND he was warned not to act out and he did! Bring back Jim Crow and maybe you’ll keep these savages today in check!
Well in a court of law what you heard someone say would be called hearsay and not allowed as evidence. The reality is people should look at the actual evidence that was provided in the trial, to throw out random things you've heard or read after the fact is really ridiculous. Hell if you look at most stories written it says he was lynched... of course that ignores the fact that he was according to actual medical reports shot in the head. So already there are inconsistencies with reality and the common stories people read about it.
Now most people that are sickened by it look at the image of his body in the casket and assume that this was the result of the torture and mutilation that was perpetrated on him prior to killing him. If you just look at it, you would think he was brutally tortured in god knows what way... however, that ignores the fact that after he was killed he was dumping in a river in late August and not found for 3 days... if you took someone that was simply shot and dropped them in a river at that time of year in Mississippi you would get a body that looks as bad or worse than Emmett's. I'm not saying he wasn't beaten, he very well may have been... but to assume he was mutilated and tortured is conjecture and you could never tell given the amount of time the body was submerged in a river in the hot south. Frankly it is miraculous that by the time his body was found he hadn't been eaten by critters in the river.
At this point in time people making assumptions on what happened has gone beyond reality and gone into myth.
Now you know how people with gendered pronouns feel, welcome to the club. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never ____ (fill in the blank). So this is what it's like on the other side of the spectrum eh? Just as bad.
The Till family needs to get over it. I don't agree that the little punk should have been killed but he probably should have been sent to reform school. The Till relatives already tried to get Carolyn Bryant Donham arrested for lying to the court and they are now trying to get this warrant executed. The Bryant family worked with a writer on Bryant Donham's memoir and the author wrote an unauthorized book in 2017 that included quotes from Bryant Donham supposedly stating that she lied about the encounter. Bryant Donham disputes the author's quotes and allegations.
"Right wing creep", Otter? Is that what we're calling brazen white supremacist degenerates who openly support the brutal lynching of an innocent black child? Maybe we should call him a Trumper while we're at it. That will really drive home the point of just how much of a sick & depraved excuse for a human being the OP is.
Please, go on! Write out all the insults I didn't have time to write, because I was sneaking a peek at my phone at work!
Use your creative powers, because in this gangrenous little asswipe who couldn't find his own dick with an electron microscope, you have an appropriate target for all the nasty things that were too awful to say in any other circumstance!
My point was not to come up with creative insults but rather to express that "right wing creep" woefully misses the mark as an appropriate description for a depraved white supremacist who openly supports something so heinously evil as anti-black racial terrorism & child murder.
Why are you attacking me for failing to insult the racist needledick in the way you want him attacked, rather than attacking the racist needledick himself?
I wasn't attacking you but I have no control over whether you choose to take it as such. I also wasn't insisting that you attack or insult anyone but rather that I simply found your description to be somewhat inaccurate & lacking the appropriate context.
Deliberate trolls like this one actually like it when they make people angry. Raging at them makes them feel powerful, but mockery, or pointing out their stupidity, makes them feel like the worthless losers they actually are.
Always laugh at trolls! It hurts them more than insults. If you say anything to them at all, which I don't see you doing.
Brazen white supremacist low-lifes can be called out without directly engaging with them, as they strive to waste your time with trolling tactics but if I do reference them, I'm simply not going to mince words about exactly who & what they are. "This is not for their benefit but for others.
If giving a word of advice constitutes "infighting" to you then I simply do not agree with that logic & I suppose in our case then it's a good thing that we're not exactly allies in a joined cause but rather just strangers on the internet who sometimes have opinions that coincide. Also, the idea of "allowing" someone to stand against something as universally evil as white supremacy is quite absurd as basic human decency is not something that can be gatekept. Another bit of advice would be to agree to disagree on semantics so we can move on & you can get out of your feels for a moment & redirect them where they will be better served. I've seen you make some very good commentary on this subject in the past.
Well, that's disappointing. We may not agree on everything, but that sort of belligerence is misdirected & beneath you. Assuming your account hasn't been hacked by a troll who's trying to make you look ridiculous, I'll just leave you calm down, maybe have a nice herbal tea & hopefully the next time i see you you'll be back to engaging in the constructive input that I know you're capable of.
No, I’m not trolling. I’m just sick and tired of this bullshit. The riots across America when that animal George Floyd got himself killed paid reparations and then some. Fuck Till, Floyd, Martin, Brown and those like them.
