ITT: Moments in history that really make your blood boil.
Stinney was convicted in less than 10 minutes, during a one-day trial, by an all-white jury[2] of the first-degree murder of two white girls: 11-year-old Betty June Binnicker and 8-year-old Mary Emma Thames. After being arrested, Stinney was said to have confessed to the crime.[3][4] There was no written record of his confession apart from notes provided by an investigating deputy,[5] and no transcript was recorded of the brief trial. He was denied appeal and executed by electric chair.

What do???
Wyatt Reyes
the US doesn't do jury of peers. I mean, if that were the case, he would;ve been tried by a bunch of black criminal children.

Am I supposed to feel bad for this guy? The only problem here is that this sick fuck wasn't killed earlier.

Asher Nguyen
Am I supposed to give him the benefit of the doubt on the basis that he's black or something?
Michael Butler
The honest response is that,yes he did do it, but he likely had a nonpresent father and a mother that was just as bad, so instead of punishing a horrifically crafted youth, we should look at what actually drove this.

try a low intellect and a inborn proclivity for violent behaviour you civic faggot

The way the trial was conducted is a travesty, regardless of whether he did it or not.

Why are white people so barbaric? Why do so many of them try to justify this obviously unfair trial and this appalling sentence? Where are the moderate whites on this board?

Why is miscarriage of justice suddenly okay when a black guy does it? Yes, perhaps the evidence does point to him doing it but he's still due a fair trial. It sets a terrible precedence to allow the state to get away with something like this.
Gavin Sullivan
*suddenly okay when a black guy suffers from it?
Caleb Collins
He still probably did it.
Thomas Wood
it wasn't a miscarriage. Theres just a lack of records from the time.
Camden Bell
If they can't do a competent trial then they probably couldn't do a competent investigation and arrest. I doubt he was the one who did it.
Jeremiah Davis
Outside of academic circles people don't really care about due process, the legal system, and all that. As far as they're concerned it's just a means to an end to punishing the bad people.
Levi Sanders
Wow, an intelligent answer on Veeky Forums
Jordan Peterson
Smells like a Stephen King story
Ayden Davis
Man imagine how different this thread would be if the races switched.
Tyler Howard
academic circles are wankery garbage. Because they're "thinktanks" that have not come up with a single good policy or technology in ten thousand years.
Charles Cruz
True, but it's still a dangerous way for the common man to think. A fair criminal justice system is needed for all people. You never know if you might find yourself in a kangaroo court.
Dylan Diaz
>whites were no different from niggers it's almost you just picked up on history
Julian Clark
that still counts as blacked, right?
Asher Allen

Benjamin Jackson
If you weren't a racist you wouldn't care about the skin colour of the defendant, the victims or the jury.
Ayden Kelly
That logic doesn't work in this case. Or 90% of history.

Except given the time period it was likely that the defendant's race had a huge impact on the quality of the trial he was given.
Oliver Rivera
if a white kid got sentenced to death by an all black jury for killing 2 black girls?
probably wouldn't happen, maybe in the immediate post-apartheid south africa, even then the blacks have been conditioned to give white the benefit of the doubt. they would immediately sentence him for political reasons, but not murder
Grayson Flores
holy shit, that guy in the back with the big mustache and big ears looks like me
Gavin Moore
Africans literally torture their criminals in mobs in the areas too far for police to care about.
God, in a show as amazing as the Boondocks how does Uncle Ruckus always manage to be mile away the best thing about the show?
Elijah Scott
This. Fuck T*rks, Niggers, etc.
Wyatt Hill
Hmmmm ol faux news up to there old tricks.
Charles Collins
das true tho
Sebastian Rivera
It is truly unfortunate that this happened. It is a testament to the racism that was deeply embedded into the Southern law system.
Jackson Evans
What if he did do it?
Aiden Ramirez
>no transcript was recorded of the brief trial. He was denied appeal Theoretically, how does one go about in dealing with misconduct and unlawfulness at judicial levels. What effective failsafes, if there aren't any already, could be implemented within a democratic system? What keeps judicial officials in check?
Caleb Allen
>Why are white people so barbaric?
It took them about twenty years longer than the rest of us, but now they finally realize that their country has gone into terminal decline and they're literally dying out. All they have left is petty sadism against the people still in their power.
Eli Peterson
He might legitimately not have. Googling around, there's claims of from a local historian of a deathbed confession by someone else, but no name attached to said claim, and the victim's family still thinks he did it.
Either way the trial was a joke.
Adam Hall
There are a few mechanisms I can think of
>appellate courts >bad judges don't get promoted >governors can pardon >DOJ can investigate civil rights violations >congress can generally impeach judges if there's obvious cause
Nolan Russell
What's this?
Henry Flores

Isaac Lopez
>a fucking flag
Aaron Bell
So why he did it?
Ryan Lopez
It probably wasn't a bad trial, a lot of trials don't last very like what you see on tv. If there was no evidence against the charges whatsoever than it would have been an open and shut case. Plea bargaining is kind of a relatively recent thing which is he had a trial that was so short.
Jason Gutierrez
Well then maybe the intellectual class shouldn't have wanked themselves into universal suffrage.
Luke Lewis
Even if he didn't kill those girls he probably did or would have done other things that would justify getting the chair
Jonathan Jenkins
>76'-05'
Do i care? should i care? 13 year old source this is, like do i even say i recognize this when you literally can't find the news report about this?
Carter Murphy
I forget the name but he was a mentally challenged man who was pinned for a rape/murder by a big shot sheriff who cared only for his success percentage. He was in no way able to defend himself and would basically repeat anything you asked him to, causing him to """"""confess""""" to the crime which led to his execution. He was fucking playing with trains and shit up until he was killed
Juan Sullivan
>Absolute state of crackers
Caleb Rodriguez
Scottsboro i think
Jaxon Jones
No, he was the son of Syrian immigrants (a weird enoug thing in that time in America) who was drifting by way of trains, who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time
Gavin Baker

Jackson Mitchell
the execution of Antoine Lavoisier it's the only thing wrong with the Reign of Terror
Isaac Perez
Did he do it though?
Lucas Cruz
Constantinopole was a rotting corpse, good riddance
Jacob Flores
people milk these things for bad reasons but it shouldn't really blow your mind if he was innocent
Logan Mitchell
What's wrong with universal suffrage?
Juan Turner

sounds like he killed a couple of kids

>Nigger >Innocent
Brandon Mitchell
The entire concept of the United States was thought up by academic circles. It wasn't the common people in charge and they never were intended to be. Weather or not this was a good thing is a matter of debate.

The fact that communism and fascism existed and were allowed to thrive. Tempered by the fact that both ideologies are now maintained by a bunch of edgy basement-dwelling LARPers.

Communists are on a leash pulled by liberals who service the state-corporatist overlords in their own goal of achieving a fascist (authoritarian state-corporatist) state. That's hardly larping.
