You'll note I never said Republicans or Democrats. I said conservatives, which the Democrats of that era were. And it's not like the KKK (who were behind the vast majority of those lynchings) back the modern Democratic party anyway.

You wouldn't recognize actual intelligence if it slapped you in the face with its junk.

Blaming other people for your own mistakes is a poor set of life decisions.

So I guess the fact that Blacks have higher standard of living in Republican cities is because of evil Republicans? Fucking grow up, dude. Accept reality for once.

What does this have to do with post-Civil War lynching?

Straw man more.

The lynchings committed by people aligning with the Democrat party are none of my concern.

I assault the credibility of the defendant's peers because they also vote for politicians that create such high poverty and homicide rates. Most areas like the ones I mentioned have to settle frivolous civil disagreements out of court because the Juries are too biased and immoral to award fair settlements - all Juries in these areas basically award billions of dollars. It's a consistent problem that has been documented for decades now, and it only decreases the quality of life of the area in question.

As a middle ground I suggest to use peers in neighboring counties that have lower poverty and homicide rates. I like this way because it doesn't use the federal government while also having some semblance of a same-state peer Jury.

The founding fathers did not intend to allow places like Detroit to exist when they wrote the founding documents. I think minor changes need to be made in order to account for these new patterns. If the violence wasn't so perpetually high in these areas, I would agree with you fully. The violence in these areas often spills over into surrounding areas, so the notion that peers could also be in nearby towns isn't a bad estimate either.
