The American mind is being slowly narrowed down into oblivion through the incessant drumbeat over racism.
During the weekends, I sometimes watch the Western channel, that shows nonstop Western movies.
Good bit of hanging going on, that is the way it used to be done, and in the Westerns the ones being hung are all white.
But now, a hangman’s noose is automatically associated with lynchings of blacks in the South due to the incessant brainwashing going on over the decades.
We watch old western movies shows too
But can someone tell me why would Cylde Smith say she would have front row seat at public hanging? Name one state that executes by hanging. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
Then we must incessantly state that the lynchings were
done by Democrat-run sociopathic states and localities
“I’d go to a public hanging if he asked me” is an old expression. It assumes a public hanging is distasteful, but you’d go if someone you respected asked you to.
“Hanging was the principle method of judicial execution in England from the 1700s until capital punishment was abolished in 1964...Until 1868, when the procedure was moved in-doors, a hanging was a public event that attracted curious crowds and generated a carnival atmosphere. The intent of this gruesome public display was to deter criminal behavior for all who witnessed it.”

“While some reformers opposed capital punishment, public executions remained common throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries...The last formal public executions occurred in 1868 in Britain, in 1936 in the U.S. and in 1939 in France.”

The phrase has NOTHING to do with lynchings. Nothing to do with blacks, on the whole. Most killed were whites. But in modern America, a REPUBLICAN cannot say anything involving a black without being accused of racism, while a democrat can say anything they want and get a pass. And a black rapper can say anything without being attacked, unless it is “MAGA”...
