An angry mob stormed a North Carolina old folks home Wednesday in a fruitless hunt for the woman whose complaint 67 years ago led to the lynching of Emmett Till in Mississippi. The throng acted after a 1955 arrest warrant surfaced naming Carolyn Bryant Donham, the then-young woman whose accusation that Till, a black 14-year-old, had whistled at her, motivated the bloodthirsty racist mob. The modern mob believed it had tracked Donham, who would now be in her 80s, first to a home in Raleigh, then to a senior living facility.

I'm sure police just watched for the most part.

they probably arrested one of the retirement home employees for blocking access to the rooms.

“You cannot ignore this,” Priscilla Sterling, Till’s cousin, told WRAL. “If this is what’s needed to do for us to change our mindset, our behaviors and attitudes in the society, then this will do it. This will do it. Execute the warrant.”


Liar.

Nothing will ever be enough and your mindset will not be changed.

Wouldn't surprise me. We are seeing more and more instances of cops just being politically driven foot soldiers for corrupt officials, after all.

That’s pretty scummy to do that to the elderly in a nursing home.

How many black youths have been slain in the ghettos while this attention whore style outrage has been going on the past couple weeks?

Fake freaking outrage. This country is eye level sick of it.

It's time to start dealing with these idiots in such a way as to cause others' to think twice about their own idiocy.

Fk going to the Police, it's time for decent folks to take up pitchforks, torches and shovels to clean up the mess.

so much for peaceful protest. Storming a nursing home? This is animal behavior.

Edit:
I take your downvote as a badge of honor.

What were they planning to do? Kill her? The statute of limitations expired so she isn’t going to be arrested.

These people are evil. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

6 months to a year ago, they would let your elderly relative die alone in a nursing home, because their family simply could not be allowed in to see their loved one, even if they were dying. Now apparently roving bands of fricking retards are a okay in a nursing home. Funny that.

If they weren't stopped, then probably.

By the way, all of these so called activists who claim to want to end racism are doing the opposite. People like me are getting absolutely fricking sick of them.

Nah, string that bitch up. Any of you trying to give her a pass are sorely lacking in your knowledge of this event.

It’s fricking odd how people can’t comprehend how BOTH are examples of animalistic behavior.

Hmmm... So how do you feel about Christine Blasey Ford, Stormy Daniels, Anita Hill, Crystal Mangum, and thousands of other women who make false accusations? String those bitches up too? Or are you giving them a pass?
