Blacks were strung up all the time during slavery days. It was frequently used to punish runway slaves as a warning to the others.

Up until the Civil Rights movement, black men accused of crimes (especially rape of white women) were frequently lynched by hanging.

The tone and content of your post are worthy of DU. That the subject of race should cause people to act this way even here on FR is testament to the power of leftist indoctrination.

How about a yellow star to a Jew? Is there no reason for them to react?

Your post is KOS-worthy because they don’t like facts that interfere with their narrow-minded worldview either.

The FACT is that a noose to a black person is a threat. It says “leave or we will kill you.” If you don’t like that or disagree with them having that reaction is irrelevant. That is the case and anyone who doesn’t know that is just so history-impaired that it is pointless having a discussion

Ignorance is NOT a Conservative Value.
