If we hadn't taken Darwin out of the equation, people like Jasmine Crockett (or the mouthbreathers that vote for her) generally don't make it to adulthood.

I still say she is very intelligent and her statements are calculated to curry favor for the support she needs.

She's an idiot but does what smart people tell her to do

I don't think that is truly what they think. They are just so wrapped up in the past that all they had to hear was that Austin told Karmelo to leave. In their minds Austin might as well have been telling Rosa Parks to get to the back of the bus. It was proof enough to them that he was a white supremacist thinking he could tell a black person what to do. So they see that as a life and death situation.

It's stupid, but it is what it is.

repeating phrases is a cultural thing associated with poor neurodevelopment. That's not my problem but the fatigue sure is real.

I like how Austin saying, "I'm not going to fight you at a track meet" has morphed into "he's 300 lbs and beating on him".

Crockett is so stupid, she doesn't understand that as a WOMAN (which Dems are incapable of identifying), she would have a case for self-defense if a man attacking her was her exact height and weight. We don't even need to touch on her lack of knowledge of football.

She's not in Congress so could she be civilly liable for lying about Austin? Does the family of the actual victim have any recourse? Should she be censured by her colleagues in Congress?

I mean sure, but you still can't lynch people. Extrajudicial executions are one of the fundamental things that historically separate civilized and uncivilized societies.

Just seems like an odd and largely irrelevant point to make. Lynching is still incompatible with our society regardless of the person's guilt or innocence.

Marshall Ratliff, the infamous Santa Claus bank robber, was lynched by a mob in Eastland, Texas. If you read about his role in the robbery occurred on December 23, 1927, and his subsequent conviction, you can understand why he was lynched.

Quote:

---

However, the citizens of Eastland County were infuriated that he had not been executed yet, and even further aggravated to know that Ratliff was attempting the insanity plea. Judge Davenport issued a bench warrant for an armed robbery charge, for stealing the Harris car, and extradited Ratliff to the Eastland County jail. There Ratliff convinced his jailers, Pack Kilbourn and Tom Jones, that he really was insane, as they had to feed him, bathe him, and take him to the toilet. On November 18 Ratliff attempted to escape, mortally wounding Tom Jones in the attempt. A crowd began to gather the next morning and by nightfall had grown to over 1,000. They began demanding Ratliff. Kilbourn refused but was overpowered, and the mob rushed in and found Ratliff. Dragging him out, they tied his hands and feet and headed for a nearby power pole. The first attempt to hang him failed when the knot came loose and he fell to the ground. The second time, however, the knot did not come undone. Ratliff was pronounced dead at 9:55 P.M. on November 19. Jones died that evening, bringing the total number of dead, including three bank robbers, to six.

No one was ever tried in association with the lynching, although a grand jury was formed. Several thousand persons viewed Ratliff's body the next day at a furniture store in Eastland before Judge Garrett ordered the corpse locked up.

I agree with you. It does not in any way excuse this horrible, senseless murder, but I do believe it partially explains what was going on with KA.

As someone who grew up in the segregated/Jim Crow South, I have brooded on this issue for many, many years.

White people, including me, like to think to ourselves that black people no longer have any grounds for racial grievance. Segregation and Jim Crow are illegal and long in the past.

The problem is that millions of black people live with relatives--grandparents, for instance--or know people in the community who are my age (77) and who grew up in the same segregated world I grew up in.

The world of segregation is a living memory for those folks, and they pass those memories--and fears and resentments and angers--on to their children and grandchildren.

Many black people are able to go on with their lives and not be trapped in that past, but there are millions for whom that past is vividly real and can control their lives if they let it.

I grow more despairing that our society is just stuck in the past with not much of a way forward.

I told my wife last night that he and his family were probably actually stunned he was facing any consequences at all given how many of the repeat criminals on our streets seem to have many instances of catch and release on their records for serious crimes with little or no punishment involved.

If only Karmelo was an illegal immigrant....

I was there for 4 days of the trial. All of these black thugs that were there trying to cause havoc and chaos don't care what evidence proves what, they believe that Bblack people should be able to do whatever they want to white people..

And had Austin Metcalf killed Karmelo Anthony they would have called it murder and rightfully so but he didn't so their boy Karmelo got what he deserved.

FIFY

So basically , I don't like the outcome so I demand a do-over. Yeah right. That's not how this works.

The ignorance and entitlement is astounding.

Well said. Growing up in high school in Houston in the 90's I didn't think it was a big deal anymore. I had black friends and race stuff pretty much never came up.

The Rodney King and OJ events kind of opened my eyes a little bit to it. It was like a "oh yeah, something is definitely still there". But as for us kids, I didn't see much animosity with each other. We didn't have social media though.

I think social media helped spread a very militant anti-white sentiment that went underground after the 70's and into academia.

You're correct about the entitlement aspect, but they're not ignorant. They just don't f'n care.

My old boss (white male, 60s) had a cross burned in his front yard when he was a kid in Louisiana because his dad was a liberal who dared to promote integration.

I think a lot of us growing up in the burbs in the 80s and 90s don't quite grasp the level of trauma that many/most especially southern blacks endured in the recent past. For me this does not at all excuse the behavior of blacks born in the 90s and 00s but it does allow me to understand that generational trauma does exist and it is not easy to move on without a lot of emotional intelligence and a belief in oneself. This is where "nurture" comes in and parents are responsible for instilling this in their children, and many do not unfortunately.

Similar experience at a small east Texas high school in the early 90s. Demographics at the time were roughly 40% white, 30% black, 30% hispanic. Everybody got along just fine. Never feared for my safety driving into the gov't housing area to pick up or drop of a teammate before/after practice.

There were a couple families that got together and would pay for a one year subsciption to our weekly paper for all the grads that went off to college. My soph year at A&M, I read a story about a big dust-up between two groups of youts at the Little League fields (it was a small town, so any type of athletic event from youth sports through high school was pretty well attended because there just ain't much else to do), one black, one hispanic, and there was to be a big police investigation due to public fear that gang violence had finally come to our little podunk town.

Next week, I read the follow up story. Rather than being gang-related, it was a beef between one dude who happened to be black and another who happened to be hispanic. They got into it and then the brothers and cousins got involved. As with most things in a small town at that time, the fight settled it and everybody was fine with each other afterwards.

Makes me sad how our society has changed since then and how the internet has given the village idiots the ability to broadcast their dumbass opinions outside their village. And that political correctness prevents those idiots from being told that they're idiots and treated as such.
