>Although she fled, Mary Turner was captured at noon on May 19.The mob of several hundred took her to the bank in Brooks County near Folsom Bridge, over the Little River, which forms the border with Lowndes County. According to investigator Walter F. White of the NAACP, Mary Turner was tied and hung upside down by the ankles, her clothes soaked with gasoline, and burned from her body. Her belly was slit open with a knife like those used "in splitting hogs." Her "unborn babe" fell to the ground and gave "two feeble cries." Its head was crushed by a member of the mob with his heel, and the crowd shot hundreds of bullets into Turner's body.

To be ready for war at all times, by lynching innocent women?

It looks like a pre Industrial execution. And it most likely is.

The Haitian revolution had a bit to do with it. White refugees from Haiti came along with stories about what had happened there and fears of a similar slave rebellion were high.

>Why did southerners partake in Aztec level brutality back in the years 1870-1930?
After the shady ass political bargain that got Rutherford B Hayes elected to office, reconstruction had proven to be more or less completely a bust. It was probably fucked from the start, considering that Andrew Johnson, a pro-slavery democrat and Lincoln's successor, did everything in his power to fuck over the union effort as president. Although most of his fuckery was over-turned by congress, the damage was done, and reconstruction never quite managed to click because os it.
In response, the southerners ran a very effective terror campaign against blacks, marginalizing them, frightening them against voting, and using the practice of debt-slavery to force them back into the fields.
That's because the only practical way to maintain a two-class system is when the upper class continuously terrorizes the lower class into compliance, and uses fear to keep them in line. You see it all the way back in societies like ancient Sparta.

The reason is that poor white southerners were often not much wealthier than the recently freed blacks. Racism was the quickest and easiest way to feel good about themselves--I may be poor, but at least I'm better than the niggers over there.
Southern history is a long story of the wealthy elite playing poor whites and blacks off against each other so they can keep getting richer and more powerful without anyone noticing.

Seriously though no ones arguing that the south was more racist against blacks than the north. But it's like arguing about whether the Jews or the gypsies had it worse under the nazis. Both northerners and southerners treated niggers like shit, it's just that the northerners never had as many of them around as the southerners and didn't have an economic system that was dependent on them

just keep in mind in the modern day, whenever a black guy does something horrific, hordes of people show up screeching about how there must have been a good reason for making him snap like that and that we should withhold judgement before we get the full story...
maybe southern whites chimped out from time to time for a reason as well...
huh makes you think
Angel Moore
Over 60 years, there were 4,743 lynchings, 3,446 of them were black.
Most of these people were rapists and killers, not like OP's posts. If you look at something like Babi Yar, 33,000 Jews were killed over 48 hours. I don't view Jews as victims because they definitely brought most of what happened onto themselves and were trying to subverting, but blacks aren't victims either. They got off easier then a lot of other groups did, and they should be grateful it was only like 3500, think about the Armenian Genocide.

Both the British and Americans had better jets than the Germans. Almost nothing we have today can be attributed to Nazi Germany, in the end their technology was simply inferior to their competitors. Even the Russian RPG ended up not being based on the Panzerfaust after they saw how limited the system was.
We can attribute much to Nazi scientists post war, but hardly anything was learned from Nazi Germany except how not to do something.

That's the reason it didn't spiral out of control like the rest. Because southerners knew that anything which made them look bad in Washington meant a loss of political capital

This whole execution when it gets to these lines seems impractical and the account of the execution provided is written by the head of the NAACP. Someone who surely had an interest in sugarcoating a few details to win support for his movement. I doubt the lynchers took the baby and crushed the head as dramatically as described, let alone waste ammunition shooting a corpse with "hundreds of bullets".
