regardless of the ''legal'' outcome, and despite the absolute heartless evil behind all of this, these people have one thing they can never get away from: their conscience, which haunts them every day and will continue to do through the end of time..all ''justifications'' people like ths come up with are merely excuses to keep their conscience at bay..but at the end of the day, when the excuses - and time - run out, you've only got one thing left: the truth; and if you believe in the afterlife, there are no more excuses, no more laws and statutes to hide behind..all that's left is the human conscience - from which there's NO escape..i wanna believe that's the true definition of hell: the human conscience, from which there is no reprieve or technicality to invoke.......

@@godofnothing428 If whites are going to pay for the "crimes of their ancestors" and that's how it works then just look at it as blacks paying for their ancestor's crimes in spades. Africans had long enslaved Europeans before the reverse happened. Or do we try to sweep the Carthaginians under the rug and only bring them out to make africans feel good about Hannibal when it conveniences them most? The Berbers, Moors, Barbary States, Egyptians, Nubians, Libyans, Moroccans, the list goes on for African people's that had long enslaved whites, raped their women, killed their children. The Reconquista was the first step to change that old status quo since the fall of the Roman Empire. Do we pay for the crimes of others or do we take account for ourselves an our actions? If you dont want to hold to the principles of the latter you are a weak fool.

So yeah basically they were saying how Emmett thought the men were “bluffing” and wouldn’t actually kill him.

The victim (Carolyn Bryant) didn't lie- that's a common misconception regarding this case. Lynching is extrajudicial killing- Emmett was never found guilty of sexually assaulting the frightened 5'2" 103-pound beauty pagent winner. And lynching is not "punishment for any crime", it's murder. Those two Democrats murdered Emmett Till, instead of reporting the sexual assault to law enforcement.

By all accounts, from anyone I would consider at all trustworthy, Emmett was an intelligent, kind, well mannered, respectful and respectable boy with a bright future ahead of him. Who knows what he could have done with his life. That speaks a lot about his mother as well as Emmett himself. We will be honoring them both in this house when we talk to and teach our grandchildren about what this family went through and what means. That's not enough though.

[@flore8968]

It’s honestly disgusting how people can disrespect, look down, and even kill other people that just have a darker skin color and just get on with their lives like it’s nothing! This woman purposely accused a 14 year old boy of harassing her and then later saying it was a lie! SHE CAUSED THE DEATH OF A YOUNG CHILD!! She doesn’t deserve to live and die peacefully while she cut this poor angel’s life short! I cannot believe this is humanity. Darker skinned people are human too! They have feelings, they’re living and breathing like everyone!

Just remember all must stand at the Bemis seat. All religions have a version of this, as does science (studies on NDEs...near-death experiences, a "life review" and many state you can feel how the people you have wronged, feel). Hopefully she and her husband feel every tiny bit of the physical pain he inflicted upon Emmet, as well as the emotional pain he inflicted upon hundreds, seeing what happened to that child.

[@riiraa881]

It's more like, how can people who look down on other people and act like sociopaths think they are decent human beings. No other human can determine another human's worth. Anyone who thinks they can determine someone's worth based on their skin color is simply a narcissistic sociopath.

[@vickiebailey5261]

AND THEY CALL US ' HUMAN ' . ANY PERSON WHO WOULD HARM ANOTHER JUST BECAUSE OF A DIFFERENT SKIN COLOR IS NOT HUMAN . I FEEL SO SAD FOR THE TILL FAMILY EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DECADES AGO , THE SADNESS AND ANGER IN MY HEART IS AS IF IT WERE YESTERDAY. THAT POOR CHILD WAS KILLED BECAUSE OF ONE LYING BITCH . SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN BEATEN TO DEATH LIKE HE WAS .

To think of my only son , and to only imagine the scared , crying , and pain this child went through as a mother it would stay with me forever, to see the child you gave birth to in that way would not only hurt your heart it would scar you to the core , the way his mother stood for her son and the way she made it known that she would not sit in silence will always be a true testament to a mothers undying love ❤️ for their child always , The world is still feeling her pain even to this day and Iam sure it will forever be a picture etched In many hearts always , REST IN PEACE , KNOWING YOUR NAME STILL IS SPOKEN TO THIS DAY AND THE FIGHT FOR ALL WILL NEVER STOP.
