[QUOTE="FreeinChrist, post: 75979025, member: 8879"] No, your first sentence was [INDENT]"We are looking at something that happened in 1921 in that time period it is regrettable but understandable that a white woman being raped by a black man followed by a white man being shot by a black man would result in a riot and burning down a portion of the city resulting in a death toll that was recorded at 10 whites and 26 black people."[/INDENT] However, it is not "understandable" and the white woman was not raped, and it is not was not okay to lynch the accused or demand to do that. The black men who defended the accused were vets. They were trying to prevent a crime by a white mob who went on to destroy homes and businesses of successful black folks. The white mob is responsible for their actions that day. [/QUOTE]
