    This literally appears to be a modern day lynching. These 2 men, and 1 other, abducted 2 young Black men from a grocery store parking lot in Moore, Oklahoma. Then shot & killed them. Stripped them naked. Burned clothes. Took them to a pond & tied their bodies to cinder blockspic.twitter.com/m7m0Sq03X5

        Doesn't quite fit the 'that was a long time ago' narrative. Does it?

        It is 2018, but it could just as easily be 1958. The definition of a hate crime. They need to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

        details on the shooting, very sad, but no "abduction". I wouldnt consider this a "lynching" either. Glad the killers are caught and they deserve to rot in jail, nevertheless.pic.twitter.com/jD4wwIj9x5

        I'm a licensed gun owner and every Black person needs to be one just as Killer Mike said. You never hear of these cases happening to Black folks packing. Rather be judged by twelve than carried by six....Hotep.
