"From there it evolved into what we know today -- the racist killings of African Americans."

And the non-racist killings of white Americans?

BLM isn’t the least interested in the welfare of Black people, so it’s not like I’ll tattle.

You’re welcome, I didn’t go far enough to see if anyone had already caught it.

The truth means nothing to the anarchists. That the city is named for the man who established it, not any extra legal actions means nothing to the degenerate mind of the dead souls pushing this anarchy aimed at ending our civilization/ our by rule of law society.

I knew a girl whose last name was Lynch in skrewel. She actually lived in a majority-black neighborhood, with little trouble, as far as I know.

So, will grievance-hyped Black people get to use her as a pinata nowadays?

Has Loretta Lynch changed her name to something African sounding yet?

How about Loretta Boogaloo?

Correct. Ask the 200+ blacks killed by blacks in Chicago so far just this year.

Lynchburg, Va lost a few but it was the nearby town/county of Bedford, Va that lost more men, per capita, than any other town/county in the country on D-Day. Nineteen men from a county of only three thousand were killed in the Normandy landing. By the end of the Normandy landings three more were killed to total 22.

Company A (Bedford Rifles)
116th Regiment (Stonewall Regiment)
29th Infantry Division. (Blue and Gray)

Excellent book about the Bedford Boys and those they left at home.

IF ANYONE CARES:::

John Lynch (1740–1820)

John Lynch, the founder of the city of Lynchburg, Virginia, was born August 28, 1740, in Albemarle County, Virginia, and died on October 31, 1820, in Lynchburg.

Early life Lynch's father was Charles Lynch, who was born in Galway, Ireland, but immigrated to Virginia in 1720 and prospered. Charles Lynch married Sarah Clarke in 1733 and moved near the present site of Lynchburg. John Lynch was one of six children they had, another of whom was Charles, a judge believed to be the namesake of lynching.

Maybe Loretta Kenté would be more culturally appropriate(ing) nowadays.

African lady smacks down virtue-signalling Dimocrats
