Neither side has the morality card on this debate.


Screw that. The Democrats went to war to keep slavery and when they lost they formed the KKK and the most oppressive laws over African-Americans in the South.


It was ALL the Democrats.

See, when you're real, real mad, it's a good idea to slow down and make sure you used all the big words right. Otherwise it makes you look stupid. . .



er.


Like this kind of stupid?


Obviously a suicide, because we are reassured there's no racism in America, except for those horrible brown people and women brutalising poor, defenceless white men.


That kind of immaturity?


That post is so idiotic.

Yep, modern Democrats are responsible for slavery and Jim Crow, modern Indians are responsible for massacres.

But modern white guys had nothing to do with slavery or genocide.

Clearly, we're dealing with a powerful (though functionally illiterate) intellect here.

You don't see the modern GOP doing any of that or passing Jim Crow Laws.


Enjoy your FAIL on that one Counselor.

And wtf is this? Geez.


Settle down and think straight. You're all over the place now.

this story was on CNN yesterday afternoon, the fact that they've called people in to investigate right from the beginning indicates to me it was no suicide

I thought that by this morning they would have released more info

Likely not a suicide but it could easily have been staged to appear race motivated.

yes, anything is possible and until we know more we can't rule anything out, apparently he had been reported missing.

Yes for about a week. There are a lot of pieces here. The guy was a convicted murderer as well, paroled after doing his time. But he killed a store clerk during a robbery in 1980 I think I read. Also read he was last seen heading to a casino, so are there gambling issues? Could well be that he's simply a victim too. But I have a feeling this is not racially motivated. Could be wrong though. Just seems like it's the first thing everybody is going to jump on and someone trying to hide their association to a murder might think of that too.

A man (or woman) hanging from a tree is going to get an investigation right from the beginning each and every time.

As it should! The police have to treat every unusual death as suspicious, they wouldn't be doing their jobs if they didn't. And given the peculiarties of where and how this body was found, I'd say it's correct action for the Feds to be involved too. Even if, in the end, it turns out to be nothing more than run of the mill murder (and how sad that murder can be run of the mill!) it would be short sighted of them not to turn over every rock.

Is gambling the only thing a casino is good for or do some take drug money slap it on a table for chips, play a few rounds cash in get fresh cash and a tax receipt that says "legit winnings, taxes paid"?

True enough. I mean, it's all idle speculation at this point anyway.

But then that's why most of us gather here, lol.
