re: #74 marjoriemoon
What reason would anyone have to drag a disabled man behind their truck to their death? We have degrees of murder depending on intent and each carries a penalty. Why should this be different?
It wasn’t as if this man robbed the klansman or harmed a member of his family. He was Black. That was the reason for the murder. I don’t understand why people here can’t understand the insidiousness of that.
It is indeed insidious.
But I don’t know how it’s possible to punish a person more than executing him.
