Jim R Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 I just don't know what to say. This seems like 60 years ago. It's actually more like 150. Violence against African Americans has been going on forever. This was the church of Denmark Vesey which was burned down after his slave revolt failed in 1822 and he was executed. Violence against black churches was rampant during Reconstruction and after. This can be likened to a mass lynching of which there are thousands of victims. No, you have to go back much farther. ? I don't follow the logic here at all. If you don't have to go back much farther, why go back much farther? (and I'm sure Chuck already knows that the problem goes back farther). It would be nice if we had to go back much farther, but we don't, and that's also sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say 60 doesn't take into account what has happened before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 otoh, one who was alive 60 years ago but not 150 should be commended for using the word "seems" in a way that carries a personally verifiable weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right! *ahem* That's what I meant to say the first time through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim R Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 This thread appears to have lost quite a few posts that were made over the past couple of days. If that was intentional, well... okay, but I'm not sure I understand why. If it was the result of the board software issue, I'm wondering how many other threads may have been affected...?

JSngry Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Per Jim A the last backup of the database was "early morning, June 21st" and as far as I can see, what has been restored here reflects that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
