The jury is in. Lindsey Graham is really this stupid and racist.

Graham asked whether he can understand African Americans being offended by the term:

"No, I think lynching is being seen as somebody taking the law in their own hands and out to get somebody for no good reason."

10 Outrageous Reasons Black People Were Lynched in America



Unpopularity

There are cases on record that lynch mobs hung some Blacks because they were unpopular in the community.

Vagrancy

Some Black people who were homeless and didn’t hold regular employment or made an income were lynched.


Injuring or Killing Livestock

In many cases Blacks were murdered for injuring or killing livestock. One could only assume that the animals’ lives were seen as more valuable.

Lindsey should wake the F*** up! Does he have any brain matter left in his head? Does he have a clue what he just said?!

"No, I think lynching is being seen as somebody taking the law in their own hands and out to get somebody for no good reason."

1. A TRIGGER WARNING WOULD HAVE BEEN APPROPRIATE

5. Indeed and I've seen the famous exhibit of those photos, but it never ceases to shock/horrify me

Especially those showing entire families picnicking in view of the hanging corpse. While a minor matter in the bigger scheme, I have to say the dogs there bothers me as well, knowing how depressed rescue dogs are when they encounter a dead person.

We have a lot of sociopathic politicos on the "right" side of the aisle that is for sure.

2. I seriously wonder if anyone ever really liked ol' Linds.

[Hekate]

3. Remember that touching, tearful, eulogy for McCain he gave in the Senate?

I'm with those who believe it was really a eulogy for his own soul.

How's it feel to have sold your soul, Lindsay?

4. A handfull of silver is all it took.

Just one more GOP traitor. Money and power rules.

6. He's looking lynching from the side of the lyncher and not the lynchee. Typical asshole.

I'm going to donate to his Democratic opponent Jaime Harrison. Graham needs to go.

7. Meanwhile, Sen.Tim Scott disgraced himself with a tepid rejection

of Trump's statement.

8. I hate him... and anyone who defends him (for any reason!)

[sheshe2]

11. The jury is in, Lindsey Graham

We know who he is.

9. I don't think Lindsey gets to determine what the use of the word "lynching" in this situation

means to African Americans in this country.

It is not your place to tell them how the use of the word in this context should make them feel, Lindsey!

You don't have a leg to stand on, so you should just shut your big whiny pie-hole and go away until you are called upon to testify for that giant, fat, orange ass you can't seem to refrain from kissing.

[sheshe2]

10. Correct!!!

[2naSalit]

12. Exactly! ...nt

[MurrayDelph]

13. Lindsey doesn't think the word "lynching," is this context, is racist?

That's mighty white of him.
