Another Day, Another Trump Dog Whistle

Yeah, the Journal of African American History is lying and Karlos K. Hill is a racist. :lamo

Ah, a sudden fan of African American History are ya now?
 
You need to support your idiotic argument. Um, can you? I'm going to bet you can't.

Well, to be fair, they were at least considered to be 3/5 of a human being. That's more than half, after all.
 
I'm an historian, period. You should follow suit. Look how much you've learned.

Ignorance of history is an interesting position for a historian. After all, you're arguing that Jamestown was not a founding colony of these United States.
 
And you people claim to be the educated ones...lol

3/5 is 60% You double the numerator and denominator to get 6/10. A little more maths gets you the number needed: 60/100 = 60%
 
Sure do...

Just reading from the first page here: A white dude ordered some black convicts to lynch another black man to death, which they did. The White Dude was arrested and a black judge ordered a Grand Jury to decide the White Dude's fate. Meanwhile a black mob gathered wanting to lynch the Whited Dude. The black judge did what he could to protect the prisoner, but the mob overpowered the sheriff and his deputees and lynched the White Dude. So, all in all the murderer here is still the White Dude.

Sure there were instances of black violence. Is it that weird that some people react with violence against a system that's violent against them?

"Historically, white people are peaceful and nice. It was da Blacks who lynched people."

Yes, Virginia (83 black people lynched to 17 white), someone on the Right is actually making that absurd argument.

That doesn't prove anything, nor does it dispute anything I've already posted.

Are you justifying lynching, or justifying black on white lynching? :lamo

The excuses people come up with for why racist white bastards enslaved black people and swung them from trees for $200, Alex.

The historical illiteracy of the average Leftist. :lamo
 
1. Mississippi has the largest black population in the country:

3. White people weren't lynched because of their race, just like most black people weren't lynched because of their race. Stop believing everything you're told and educate yourself.

*BUZZ*
wrong!

not even in the top 10:

The ten states with the largest black population in 2017 were Texas, Georgia, Florida, New York, North Carolina, California, Illinois, Maryland, Virginia, Louisiana.

As of 2018, Mississippi had the largest percentage of black folks in the country. Dates are important.

wrong again

what is important is the goal post

you just tried to move it

watch

your original statement to which i responded showing you were wrong:
1. Mississippi has the largest black population in the country:

here is what you posted immediately above. i am adding emphasis so that you can see why you were wrong before:
Mississippi had the largest percentage of black folks in the country

if you do not understand why that makes a differences, let me know and i will explain that significance

thus, you were wrong, and the date was not significant. something else you got wrong

That's not what you said originally. Fail less.
