This is 2020.
Internet. Social media. Etc, etc.
Nationwide affiliations between gangs has been going on for a good couple of decades or more.
But that's not even necessarily the point.
Word spreads about one, others get the idea elsewhere and copycat.
Jumping to conclusions is dumb either way.
C'MON MAN!!!!

Say it ain't true...…….the Great Socialist Liberal Progressive State of California is now lynching black citizens? First the democrats attempt to burn down citizens, then create their own nation with walls and armed security...while rapping women, destroying businesses, and searching everyone behind their walls in Seattle....now these blue states are lynching black citizens?
Who needs to do anything when an enemy is exposing their real mission to the world. Why do you assume Mr. Trump has not stepped in and stopped this anarchy with federal troops? He is allowing THE PEOPLE to witness the real mission and projected end of progressive politics.
If you apply the same logic and propaganda to these crimes has the left has with a supposed systemic racism problem within our police forces. ALL THE CITIZENS OF CALIFORNIA MUST BE GUILTY because of a few bad apples.
If you can't apply this same type of liberal logic...…….WHY NOT? Double Standard/ Hypocrisy? The PEOPLE are watching everything. This is like attempting to condemn the TRUMP MAGA rallies crying HOW DARE YOU...…..the people will not be safe from the virus....then in the next breath....not a word uttered about the left wing protestors flooding the streets of DEEP BLUE cities...their message is more important than health concerns. LAMO
Dollars to a doughnut...…….TRUMP is to blame for the failure of California to protect its black citizens. Never mind the fact they tell Trump to go to hell when he offers help with the illegal alien criminal element. Again...…does any liberal have any cognition process whatsoever to logic and reason in determining TRUTH via observing the FACTS in EVIDENCE?

Hello Nomad,
Only I know what I am thinking.
Why are you even talking about me anyway?
This discussion is not about me.
If you persist in trying to make it about me I will stop talking to you.
I come here to talk about politics.
Please maintain proper respect.
I don't talk about you. You are not to talk about me.
We can talk to one another only if both of us agree to have a discussion.
We both came here ostensibly to talk about politics.
So what is it going to be?
Are we going to talk about politics?
This is a discussion about hangings.
You express your views, I will express mine. (on politics, not one another)
Good enough?

First of all, I have directly addressed multiple times, the subject of the hangings and who might have been behind them.
But I think you intentionally hinted that whites are lynching blacks.
So stop telling me what I can and cannot talk about.
If you don't want to talk to me anymore, don't.
I don't care.
But when you or anyone else appears to be attempting to push a false narrative or agenda, I will comment on it.
Whether you like it or not.
You could have easily added a disclaimer in your original post saying that you did not in any way mean to imply that these hangings were lynchings perpetrated by angry whites in response to or retaliation for the BLM protests, but you did not.
Why? IMO because it was your intention to imply exactly that.
If not, then go ahead and make that disclaimer right now.
Directly aver that you were not and are not trying to imply whites are behind these hangings.
C'MON MAN!!!!

I was asking you if that was what you were implying?
Policemen do not shoot people in the back- it is against the law!
And when they do, they will go to prison.
People are going to run from police. A couple of years ago, one of our friends had a Birthday at our Biker/Musician bar hangout. When he went home, only a block from his house, a Drunk man, crossed over the median and my friend hit him head on on his Harley. The Mexican man jumped out of his vehicle and ran as the Police Arrived at the scene. No one even chased him down. They just ran an ID on his license plates, and went to his address and arrested him hiding under his bed.
Anyway my friend lost his right leg above the knee that night, lung collapses, a crushed kidney, and almost died from bleeding to death. He's fine today, and fully recovered.

Hello Nomad,
As long as we are not expressing views on one another, or attempting to speak for one another, we are good.
Obviously IF blacks are being lynched it is likely that whites are behind it, but that is speculative at this point until we learn more.
The OP specifically avoids commenting on who is behind it because we do not know at this point.

I don't buy your contention that "....it is likely that whites are behind it..." which is based on nothing more than a misguided sense of "fair-mindedness".
The notion seems to be among some whites that if they are willing to blame whites and absolve blacks in every situation that arises, that means that those white people have a well developed sense of fairness and justice.
Good qualities to possess, but we need to be realistic too.
You can't lay all the problems in the country today at the feet of white America when black America still has so many problems of its own to solve. Worse yet, they don't seem to be trying as hard as they possibly should be and don't seem to even want to talk about anything that doesn't involve blaming white people, cops and "the system".
I'm not saying that white people don't deserve a certain portion of the blame, but neither side wants to look at themselves or their own side and try to come to some reasonable idea of just how much culpability each side owns and what can be done to reduce it.
C'MON MAN!!!!
