Who made racial comments? because this lynch mob still needs someone to hang!

we are an equality based Lawless Rabble and will not tolerate that B.S.
we believe everyone regardless of race, sex, religion & the kind of car you drive
is worthy of lynching.

How about we try to avoid using the words hang when trying to sound less racial... Just sayin'.

Yes, because white people have never been hung before. Stop being overly sensitive. If anything, the phrase "lynch mob" has the strongest racial connotation of anything, and it's been used by people complaining about things being "racial" or that it's "become a lynch mob." But, you have to not be small minded and realize that there's an entire world outside of the United States. Lynching took place all over the world, and resulted in the hanging of all sorts of races. Even in the United States, although blacks were the overwhelming majority, there were numerous high profile cases of immigrants who were hung. Remember, Italians, the Irish, and other nationalities were treated VERY poorly up until the Great Depression.

I urge you to read this book, and anyone else that is going to assign racial undertones in places where they don't belong: http://www.amazon.com/White-Guilt-Together-Destroyed-Promise/dp/0060578637

Is there any Tiki in this book?
