re: The segregated South was FAR safer for black people than the Democrat ruled cities today

The people responsible for this got off. Definitely not safe for blacks back then, even compared to today’s inner city problems

I know Emmit Till was badly beaten to death, but that photo was taken after his body had been in the river a few days. All bodies look really bad after that, even when not beaten. Pretty much beyond recognition.
Not saying that it changes what happened to him, which was unacceptable, but the photos are intended to provoke a reaction.

This might well be true. But without data with which we can compare we would just be:

Oh Eric... I mean, texshidder.

Play nice.

ACK! ACK!

That happened in Patterson, New Jersey. You know, the New Jersey with all the democrats.

And, during this incident.

Paterson Mayor - Dem
NJO Gov - Dem

Had the Great Migrations occurred earlier than 1911, AAs would've been much better off.

Desegregation devastated black small businesses for one. Immigrants moved in to fill the void

I guess we all consider this the final word on the matter.

So, let me ask you. Do you think that the segregated South was FAR safer for black people than the Democrat ruled cities today?

quote:

Emit Till was tortured and then brutally murders and the people who did that walked with zero convictions. He wasn’t the only black to have that happen to him.

They walked but later when they admitted to killing Till their life was absolute hell. From Wikipedia

After Bryant and Milam admitted to Huie that they had killed Till, the support base of the two men eroded in Mississippi.[110] Many of their former friends and supporters, including those who had contributed to their defense funds, cut them off. Blacks boycotted their shops, which went bankrupt and closed, and banks refused to grant them loans to plant crops.[40] After struggling to secure a loan and find someone who would rent to him, Milam managed to secure 217 acres and a $4,000 loan to plant cotton, but blacks refused to work for him. He was forced to pay whites higher wages.[111] Eventually, Milam and Bryant relocated to Texas, but their infamy followed them; they continued to generate extreme animosity from locals. After several years, they returned to Mississippi. Such was the animosity toward the murderers that in 1961, while in Texas, when Bryant recognized the license plate of a Tallahatchie County resident, he called out a greeting and identified himself. The resident, upon hearing the name, drove away without speaking to Bryant.[112] Milam found work as a heavy equipment operator, but ill health forced him into retirement. Over the years, Milam was tried for offenses such as assault and battery, writing bad checks, and using a stolen credit card. He died of spinal cancer on December 30, 1980, at the age of 61.[111] Bryant worked as a welder while in Texas, until increasing blindness forced him to give up this employment. At some point, he and Carolyn divorced; he remarried in 1980. He opened a store in Ruleville, Mississippi. He was convicted in 1984 and 1988 of food stamp fraud. In a 1985 interview, he denied that he had killed Till, but said: "if Emmett Till hadn't got out of line, it probably wouldn't have happened to him." Fearing economic boycotts and retaliation, Bryant lived a private life and refused to be photographed or reveal the exact location of his store, explaining: "this new generation is different and I don't want to worry about a bullet some dark night".[113] He died of cancer on September 1, 1994, at the age of 63.[114]

Sounds like the vast majority of whites and blacks did not agree with their actions
