The other day my Wife suggested that I should may be talk about or write an op-ed on the history of lynchings ? At first I reacted with a definite hard answer but the next day I was thinking about James Byrd and Emmit Till ! I remember when I first heard about James Byrd minding his own business, when some racist cowards in East Texas, tied him up to the back of there pick up truck and drug his body in the street ,untill all his body parts fell off ! I was thinking, I thought those days were long and gone and the sad thing about it, is thise cowards serving a life sentence should have recieved death in a state that is famous for there executions ? May be they did get the death penalty, I did not do my due dilligence, but my point is in the last 9 months I have been called Nigger twice from cars driving by, of course on the opposite side of the streets like cowards do ! The last voice who yelled out Nigger, was a young mis-guided European American voice whio I pray for because he was not born like that he was taught " Hate " ! No excuses for him but I " Pray "  he doesn't run in to the wrong" Brothers " who feel they have nothing to lose and then the Devil wins again !
