Lynching is now a federal crime

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

I didn't realize this was still a thing. It is so important, it only took congress a century to get it done.

Not going to read the bill, but I bet it either:
1- Doesn't have anything to do with lynching
2- Includes a bunch of pork (Segway into reparations?) with the lynching.
3- Regurgitates some other existing law(s), in a desperate attempt to bump approval ratings.

It would be cool if the law could be interpreted to include what the democrats are doing to America as "lynching".

Biden signs bill making lynching a federal crime, ending century-long effort

President Biden signed into law legislation that makes lynching a federal hate crime.

Looks like he is being forced to sign it.



Also, why doesn't the president have to date, initial and/or sign every single section, or at least every page, on the ACTUAL bill? I would like them to be required to do that.

He cant read more than a couple of lines, without getting the craving for an ice cream and the people that surround him, want to prevent what he shoves in his mouth from dripping all over the documents. Why do you think they have him wearing a mask all the time?

Fully understand that, but don't see how it is 'signing a bill into law', without actually signing it.

Take something comparatively less significant like my mortgage, approval drawings, purchase orders, or even intake forms at the dentists office - I can't give them a note that I signed as an acknowledgment I accept the terms and conditions in the referenced documents.

How will it be determined whether a lynching occurred or just a murder by hanging??

 

[tirwin1]

Dammit. Now my weekend plans are shot.

WTF? I thought lynching was always a crime. Silly me.

Yes it’s ridiculous and he’s pondering to the base he thinks he has. Yes it should be a crime and is it a hate crime yes. Did this need to be done? Probably not since I doubt there are any states that wouldn’t prosecute these as a hate crime or have lengthy convictions. It’s all pondering so the feds can steal a lunching case and be the good guys.

Did this need to be done?

"Hang on", let me find out.

 

[IrishMick]

Damn! Now what am I supposed to do with all these Rustlers and Horse Thieves?

 

[2WheelGnnr]

[Dr. Evil]

So am I to believe that they just declared murder illegal? Go figure.

I totally agree with you.

Its just,,,, Its just,,, every time I see his face. Fucking Moron comes to mind

 

[Truebeliever]

What is the federal legal definition of a lynching ? Does it include mob justice like a mob that apprehends the criminal using force? It might be so broad that anyone who uses force to apprehend someone could be charged if the politics aren’t in favor .

I don’t know what the bill actually says yet

 

[fresch]

In preparation for when the traitors get voted out, but change the data again.

The largest single mass lynching in US history was celebrated in newspapers​

And it was Italians who were lynched

Somehow I'm guessing lynching Italians remains NOT a Federal Crime.

Nice to see you @CaseHardened.

If I'm not mistaken...Italians were considered on the same level as Blacks back then!

 

[CaseHardened]

I suspect Italians remain lacking in Federal Protections and Benefits.

I pretty much accidentally saved two stray cats this month.

Only saw them on my Trail Camera.

No neighbor even knew they existed.

One had a tag - was missing since January ! Pretty cold in New England then.

Owner picked it up - and never returned the Cat Carrier I lent them.

The other was a Siamese. I had to trap it in a Have-A Heart. Was wounded by two attacks from some animal (Coyote). He's doing well at a local Rescue.

Both were intact males. So no surprise. Out looking for love.

It's like overly emotional stupid little children are running things.

Retroactive effective date 4/14/1865. You are now guilty of a thought crime.

There are so few actual "Hate Crimes", that those that feed on them (Jesse Smollett) are forced to invent them.
