This was a Democrat revolt. They didn't want black people succeeding on their own so they had to put that down. Not much has changed with the modern Democrat party.

Imagine EthanL telling the truth?

I'd be worried the universe was about to implode.

It seems like everything bad that’s ever happened in this country can be traced back to the Democratic Party.

If the BLM re-segregationist want to create a new thriving black community, I would support it.

It started because 75 armed blacks went to the courthouse due to a rumor a black teen was going to be lynched.

In the resulting confrontation 10 whites and 2 blacks were killed.

The Dems with their continual race baiting are trying to get something like this started again.

Yeah, that's why we haven't been hearing about it for decades. I guess enough time passed and witnesses all died, so they could spin their bullshite about it.

i had never heard about this so called one sided massacre until couple of years ago, so i did 5 minutes of research and really it was not near as one sided as portrayed in the media, that`s when i realized that i`m a better investigator than anyone that works for cBS, FOX, ABC, OR NBC,

Last weekend more blacks were killed in gang violence in liberal controlled cities across America. And you don’t care.

It will again happen this weekend.


And again the next.



And again the next.


And you don’t care.. Why? Just answer that simple question. Why are you worried about something a century ago…. But nothing about now? Just try. Give it a shot.

You left out the part about a mob then forming and looting and burning black homes and businesses resulting in an estimated ten thousand people being rendered homeless.

Black people honestly think we want them all to fail. We don’t.

Never ever let the facts get in the way of race-baiting.
