lynching has been a crime for a looong time…it's called murder and punishable by death in states that have the death penalty. black and liberal/commie bill to make a statement…waste of tax payer money and time.
Wow. We've come a short way, baby.
I know this bill is bs…but to see people upset because pretend legislation was passed to pretend protect us, is very eye opening.
So many of you are angry about this smoke and mirrors theatrical production. Why would you be upset about people being protected?
The answer..
A bunch of you are amoral and have no innate sense of justice.
Another useless bill that helps no one…..this is all politicians are good for.
Now end the sabotage of inherited wealth
No more evictions from primary residences!
Now do reparations
Still heartbreaking 💔
And the BRYANT'S..got ran outta MONEY Mississippi
His Father .. LOUIS TILL…was Murdered by white military men…for dating a white woman
0:55 several WHITE men… Not men
We should make a law against fake lynchings. We'll call it, "Jesse's Law"
High gas prices, food shortages, and a war going on, but I'm glad they could spend the ex-Vice President's time in banning something even more than it's already banned.🙄
And racially motivated murder would be prosecuted under federal civil rights laws.
This is a PR stunt.
"lynching" refers to an extrajudicial execution. Hate crimes are more broad than that.
Part of me is saying they only reason they did that is to keep black folks fron lynching whites in the future. It wasn't a crime then but it is now and forever. So if the reverse ever happens blacks would be jailed. This is to end future retaliation
Imagine if they put this much effort into the 5,000+ murders than happen every year in black communities. The reason why these things take so long is because no one cares about the 100s of senseless murders ever weekend in these same neighborhoods. Violence is part of the culture. When people start working on that… you will these issues disappear.
Hanging someone without the benefit of a trial is already illegal in every single state in the nation, and has been for a long long time.
So what is really the point of this law? It accomplishes and changes absolutely nothing.
It was a law for years stop the stupid laws it was already was a hate crime
Justice for Juicy!

So does abortions fall under that too
Yeah because lynching is still a huge problem isn’t it? 🤦♂️ Jesus fucking Christ this country can’t get its priorities straight. Pure delusion through and through. And it’s funny how some of my friends who are celebrating this like it’s a huge accomplishment were completely silent the day Darrel Brooks ran over a group of white parade attendees. Y’all ain’t fooling anyone 😂
Now when the shoes on the other foot huh? Wow how the opinion changes
Bring peace
Bet they would allow BLM to do it.
Imagine something like this taking a 100 years to pass. It solidifies just how much racism is still very much alive and thriving, and how much justice is strangled, not only in people but also in the judicial system.
Need to keep the racial tensions high and everlasting. 1955? What about that fatazz bleep that beat that Asian a few weeks ago
Y’all she makes my day better and it’s also my birthday

Something that was already against the law made into an extra special against the law for optics before midterms. Totally not for votes at all, noooo.
