FBI investigating hanging death of African-American man in Mississippi
CNN ^ | March 19, 2015 | Evan Perez, CNN Justice Reporter

Posted on 03/19/2015 2:26:29 PM PDT by don-o

The hanging death of an African-American man who had been missing since early this month and was found Thursday by local authorities in Mississippi has drawn the scrutiny of the FBI and the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division.

The sheriff's office in Claiborne County, Mississippi had organized a search for the man, who had been missing since March 2 and reported missing March 8. Authorities found the body hanging from a tree in the woods behind the residence where he had been living.

It is unclear if it is a suicide, or if the man was killed by someone.

I lot of blacks are killed by other blacks. Are those murders investigated as civil rights violations?

Calling someone African-American is racist, isn’t it? Unless they just got off the boat.

So the FBI is the answer?

What will FBI do when it discovers he hung himself?

Make a federal case out of it?

A lot of hangings are accidental while participating in auto erotica. Since it was behind his house it is more likely self imposed. If he was lynched, I suspect it would be in a more public place. Just my thoughts based on experience. No need for the feebies.

Like a beautiful lady friend of mine who was, in fact, from South Africa, wavy blonde hair, stunning green eyes and a walk that you ache watching her leave...which I could do all day.

The day she became a U.S. citizen we held a party to honor her.

A friend toasted her, and I quote “So, how does it feel to be an African American?”

ROTFLMAO as did everyone else....

The FBI was told the tree was a white oak. They rushed to the scene!

I don’t mind if they are newly arrived. But folks who have been here for generations don’t deserve to have the hyphenation. Could have come from anywhere.

Charge him with a hate crime, except that he isn't white, so simply suicide.

Comedian George Carlin talked about the absurdity of race classifications. He also brought up South Africa.

The same would apply to South Africa. Suppose a white racist from South Africa becomes an American citizen,
couldn’t he call himself an african-american, if for no other reason than just to bother black people. And what
about a black person born in South Africa who becomes an American citizen, is he an african-american or is he
a South African American? Or is he simply a South African American African-American?

Liberals should be taught that labels divide people, and I think that we can do with fewer labels, not more.
