California Attorney General Xavier Becerra is being asked to respond to growing calls for an independent investigation into the death of a young black man found hanging from a tree near Palmdale City Hall.
Sounds legit, A black man commits’ suicided by hanging himself from a tree. Nothing to see here
Wow, so the cops have decided to bring back actual lynchings. That’s so them.
Funny how at least 4 boogaloo boy plots to slaughter have been caught, 1 crazy asshole killed 3 cops and yet we still haven’t heard the Feds or Trump say their names. I’m sure they’re trying to figure a way to claim they’re the military wing of antifa. Meanwhile, the police are allowed to continue killing people with impunity.
They don’t care how unpopular they get and they’re going to take vengeance for years if left in place.
DEFUND.
It might interest folks here and the writer as well to include this rather disturbing fact that seems available in other news coming out of CA.
O/T guess who is on all the Sundays shows, Tim Scott and Ben Carlson…Gez I wonder why???
For those who were concerned that the protests would “peter out” and/or the ravenous News Cycle Industry would stop paying attention and/or the protesters would “get bored”…
Racists to the Rescue
I spend too much time reading the news every day, and I haven’t seen one story about these incidents. WTF?
Let me guess, Ben and Tim will blame it on antifa.
ETA: And Faux News will have video clips to prove it. /s
How can there not be any video from public buildings and surrounding areas?
I wonder what the stats are for suicide by hanging, from a tree? What’s the demographics, men vs women, white vs black of brown, or by age?
Tim Scott tripping over himself praising Trump. Funny yet sad.
They have to remind everybody that “MAGA loves the black people.” DJT, May 31, 2020
You’d need to cross-reference those hangings with accidental spontaneous combustion of local cross shaped objects.
Heart-breaking for the two families and for all of us.
I hope there are competent investigations; and I dread to think where they might lead.
Regarding the Malcolm Harsch killing.
”… and said that a USB cord was used to hang himself,” according to the statement.
Most peculiar.
I’m not saying one way or another but there was a report in March about a murder/suicide because the man feared that he or his wife(?) had the virus. Never read anything else on the case. But the timing was odd.
Why would any police officer inform the family of cause when it’s still under investigation?
Also by decade.
The self-hate… is worth grieving for.
(1) I have seen it in African Americans
(2) I have seen it in Latinos
(3) I have seen it in Asians
(4) I have seen it in other groups…even those whites who are not Anglo Saxons
Maybe that’s why the film Independence Day did not get everybody hugging each other (aside from the quality of the film).
The human race has too many people who live to be “better” than someone else.
I have always believed that the social repulsion for racism has always been too weak to stop it in its tracks:
How can one repel one’s best friend? Relative? Neighbor?
“…oh…he uses the “n-word” a lot but he’s a nice guy”
Suppose he was a cannibal? Would he still be a nice guy? We bandy these words around and we are, really, scared of ourselves…and lackeys like Scott and Carson aren’t going to salve that, no matter how much of their souls they are willing to destroy.
Okay, I’ll bite.
To go from lynching by kneeling on Floyd’s neck to actually hanging multiple men from trees would blow this country apart for a long time.
