What a sad little man you are


I just find it funny that yall keep making these stupid little jokes about reparations and statues, when in fact there were statues and reparations for this event.

the lesson here is that the anglos can't keep their liquor down long enough to make a rational decision against the blacks or Italian.

No way! Politicians would never do such, not then, nor now.

Cue up the morons who will claim that this dispels the myth that lynching was disproportionately visited upon black folks when in fact less than 11% of the population in 1891 accounted for 63% of victims in the known incidents of lynching that year. Those same morons will claim white people were enslaved in the United States, particularly Irish folks...watch them...here they come...

Eh......some maybe from the the Southern coast of Sicily like Castelvetrano. Carlos Marcello in fact was born in Tunis....because his parents were recruited by the French government to move there to be colonists. But other parts like Contessa Entellina there are lots of Albanian types that settled. East end of the island .....a lot of Greek influence especially in the women

They laugh about it, overall. The family has been pretty legit for something like 60 years

Before any of you start to argue with AwgustaDawg I want to remind you all that he, still, doesn't even understand how temperature works.

I know when it happened. It happened at the time of the event. Kind of like when the city pays Alton Sterlings family millions.

The reparations we are talking about are almost 200 years passed

Some leaders of the lynching ultimately got paid back for their actions. About 5 years later 2 of them were found floating in the River.....and one "left" town without his family.
