MSNBC legal analyst Brittany Packnett Cunningham said Thursday on “The ReidOut” that the slogan Make America Great Again reflected a desire to return to “days when you could lynch or murder black folks.”
While discussing a proposed Missouri self-defense law, host Joy Reid said, “As expected, Mark McCloskey, who is running for the open Missouri Senate seat, praised the bill. Because it means that he essentially, and his wife, could have been in their slippers and shoot every single Black Lives Matter person that walked by, legally, and they would not even be detained.”
AD Packnett Cunningham said, “Joy, I’m so glad you reminded us that the McCloskeys were front row and center to testify on behalf of passing this bill. This was, of course, the couple that was made famous by stepping outside of their restricted Covenant mansion in St. Louis, Glocks in tow, pulling their guns out on unarmed black protestors. But of course, to people like the McCloskeys, black skin is weapon enough, and this is precisely the problem. This is exactly what this bill is designed to do. It is to legitimize seeing blackness as a weapon in and of itself and then justify our murders.”
AD She added, “I also want to set the proper historical context because back in the day, by 1950, Missouri had the second-highest number of lynchings outside of the deep south. So when folks talk about making America great again, that’s the kind of Missouri grand ol’ tradition that they want to return to. They want to return to days when you could lynch or murder black folks, and there would be absolutely no retribution for it. That’s not hyperbole. I’m telling you as a black Missourian, and as a protestor, that is reality.”

She is a racist for sure. She hates White people.
How long will MSNBC’s ownership be allowed its unremitting support for both Black Lives Matter and the Chinese Communist party?
another loud mouthed biotch spewing racist garbage
Allowed?
Yes, they’re spewing BS, and they know it. That’s not important.
What’s important is that millions of functionally illiterate blacks will hear that and believe it. THAT is the audience they are trying to reach — the people they need to help commit vote fraud on a massive scale, by convincing them that their survival depends on it.
How awful. Imagine living your entire life as a furious, self-loathing human being who can not think beyond the color of their own skin.
That was the original story, but I have read that they are Conservative.
Yeah that’s what I wake up every morning and wanting to do?!?!?!
What an ahole!
You can bet they are guilty of projection and deep down want to commit these crimes against us. Equality is not the goal. Revenge against innocent Americans for injustices that happened to no one alive is their true motivation. If not stopped, this will end in bloodshed.
From a pure numbers perspective, there were more whites lynched than anyone. Mob mentality often occurred in many places in frontier America. I recall reading many stories about lawmen back then having to protect inmates to keep the mob from lynching the accused. In other words, lynching was an evil that could affect anyone back then. Of course, only the black victims matter to the progressive left.
RACIST !!!
She’s a full of sh*t commie racist. If she doesn’t like MAGA she can go home to Africa where everything is wonderful for blacks. Nobody is keeping her here. Black “lynchings” and “murders” weren’t as common as she wishes they were. Racist biatch.
“...back in the day, by 1950, Missouri had the second-highest number of lynchings...”
I have lynching in quotes because while the mob did try to hang four black men, the tree branch the men were to be hanged from broke and the four men were able to run away—one of the four was shot and killed, but the other three were able to escape the mob.
The idea that a citizen could be prosecuted for the mere appearance of defending his private property from a mob, (or group of ‘peaceful protestors’ if you prefer) who have broken into your ‘restricted Covenant mansion’ neighborhood is an injustice. None of the protestors were arrested for anything; the McCloskeys were charged with felonies for just standing in front of their home. Perhaps they should have observed better muzzle control, but they’d have been charged in any case.
If you have a better word, spit it out.
