As a white guy of Bill's approximate age (I am actually older than him), the word "lynch" does not have a racial overtone, not even a racial undertone, to me.
I am aware that Blacks have been lynched in the south, but the only personal relationship I had with a lynching was that the white guy who shot my best friend's grandfather was lynched. Happened long before either of us was even born, but I heard him tell the story many times.
Now am I supposed to wipe this true story about a white guy getting lynched from my memory banks?
I am five to six years younger than BOR and the thing that comes to my mind when I hear about ‘lynching’ is cattle rustlers. Liberals, by nature, are all whiners.
