The fact that the nomenclature of the political spectrum is
is reversed in the USA indicates the radical nature of our republic. The radical idea of the 18th century was reducing the power of central authority in favor of individual liberties. American liberals of today seem more interested
in returning those hard won individual freedoms to the central government. (I deliberatly use the term central rather than federal because I am a Southerner who recoqnizes the difference.)
American conservatives today are Classical Liberals.

Something like that (???).
If you're trying to communicate with me, you're going to need to use English.

Better they should hang their effigies in effigy. Effigy Mounds, Iowa isn't too far from Wichita. That would be a fine place to hang the Carrs.
Of course, so is Wichita. Say, in front of the Artichoke

Black conservative pingIf you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Earth to Loony-lefties: The Carr brothers were not selected for hanging in effigy on account of their race.
To: Sloth
no, but for "35 year old black carpets" there is a huge demand - it has been properly aged, you see, and has become a lucretive luxury good among the PC elite.

"Wichita Massacre" murder trial "Ping List" Please let me know if you want on (or off) this list.
To: Lassiter
Luckily none of these people were offended by the actual murders. /yuck
To: Lassiter
Cordially suggest that they hang them publicly "in fact".
And don't drop them; too quick. Take them up slow and leave their feet loose.
Let's see them dance.
To: mhking
Maybe the effigies should have had each of the Carrs' names on them- then it would be about them and not any other Black person. Actually, I'm far more offended by the murders than I am by some effigy.

The NAACP is the 2nd most Racist organization in the country. 2nd only to the Democratic party.
To: KS Flyover
A shame that the effigies can not be replaced with the real convicts. This is not vigilante action, it is true justice for racist butchers.
To: Lassiter
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Unless you offend someone, in which case none of the above apply.
To: mafree
If you can believe the good Reverend, his point of offense was that a
noose was used and that nooses are a reminder of slave days.
The Solution?
Take those black dummies, lay them out on cots and have a huge needle stuck in the dummy's arms.
The point is made. Problem solved!

You are correct sir...
May they be judged by the content of their deeds and not the content of their color....
