The house voted on the anti-lynching bill, which declares lynching as a hate crime. The vote was 410-4 in favour.

I have to wonder why those 4 would be opposed to something like this?

The tweet below expands on it and references who voted No. Ghomert is there ...

Why do they even need to vote on this? Don't they have anything better to do?


I'm with the 4, a good linching still has it's place, it's shouldn't even be illegal. Nevermind a hate crime, whatever that means.

Totally with you Rietie, you should volunteer yourself to be subjected the process to demonstrate to society just how great it is :thumbsup:

We are very familiar, we just call it mob justice in SA.
I'm not asking if you are familiar with it (I'm very aware you are ;) ), I'm suggesting that if you are advocating for lynching then you should put your money where your mouth is and volunteer to be lynched to demonstrate how society benefits when someone gets lynched. Good for the gander, good for the Rietrot

Surely if you are not up for that you would be a coward, no?

Just like we don't just throw innocent people in jail, we also don't just lynch innocent people, well not before falsely accusing them of a crime first.

It's not something you can just volunteer for and scream, please come lynch me. People would think that's wierd.

Its pretty easy to do so in America, just claim you looked at a white girl. I mean that was the standard to lynch back then.

In the USA a lynching is mob justice where the "crime" is being black. Hence it being correctly labeled as a hate crime you chop.

Now when you say "lynching has it's place" surely what you mean as a complete non racist is that any race should be allowed to lynch any other race for any reason. That is literally what lynching is. And given that, you as a white person are now eligible for lynching for no other reason than being white. And seeing as how you are the one that wants lynching then you should just volunteer else you are a coward.

Oh no no no buka. Rietie is an adamant non-racist™ so he only need claim he looked at any girl, cause surely he is advocating for non-racial non-discriminatory lynching. Then anybody can lynch him no problem.

Actually ignore my bigotry, he can also claim he looked at a man or a transgendered or anybody and he should be lynched all the same.

This is a stupid bill.
Read the text:
PECIFYING LYNCHING AS A HATE CRIME ACT.
Section 249(a) of title 18, United States Code, is amended—
(1) by redesignating paragraph (4) as paragraph (5); and
(2) by inserting after paragraph (3) the following:
“(4) OFFENSES INVOLVING LYNCHING.—Whoever, whether or not acting under color of law, willfully, acting as part of any collection of people, assembled for the purpose and with the intention of committing an act of violence upon any person, causes death to any person, shall be imprisoned for any term of years or for life, fined under this title, or both.”.

That is already highly illegal. Which means that this bill is nothing but a political circle jerk.

Not according to the bill they just passed ...

I mean look at this:
(15) To heal past and present racial injustice, Congress must make lynching a Federal crime so our Nation can begin reconciliation.

Geez, typical leftie communists. You can't talk about anything without being racist. Everything always has to be racist.

Yeah go read up about Red Summer of 1919 and tell me about the links between racism and lynchings.

Thank's I seriously didn't even think it was worth to read the bill. Just from the name, It was obviously going to be this stupid, and seriously not worth more than some light trolling.
