>Jesse Washington was dragged out of the court by observers and lynched in front of Waco's city hall. Over 10,000 spectators, including city officials and police, gathered to watch the attack. There was a celebratory atmosphere at the event, and many children attended during their lunch hour. Members of the mob castrated Washington, cut off his fingers, and hung him over a bonfire. He was repeatedly lowered and raised over the fire for about two hours. After the fire was extinguished, his charred torso was dragged through the town and parts of his body were sold as souvenirs
>In Robinson, Texas, Lucy Fryer was murdered while alone at her house on May 8, 1916. She was found clubbed to death, sprawled across the doorway of the farm's seed shed. It was a grisly scene that included signs of sexual assault. Officials determined a blunt instrument was used as the murder weapon. She and her husband George were English immigrants, and had become well respected in the rural community where they operated a farm. News of the death quickly reached the McLennan County Sheriff, Samuel Fleming, who immediately investigated with a team of law enforcement officers, a group of local men, and a doctor. The doctor determined that Fryer had been killed by blunt-force trauma to the head. The local men suspected that Jesse Washington, a seventeen-year-old black youth who had worked on the Fryers' farm for five months, was responsible. One man said that he had seen Washington near the Fryer house a few minutes before Lucy's body was discovered.
>That night, sheriff's deputies traveled to Washington's home, finding him in front of the house wearing blood-stained overalls. He said the stains were from a nosebleed. His questioners in Waco reported that he denied complicity in Fryer's death, but offered contradictory details about his actions.
>On May 9, Sheriff Fleming took Washington to Hill County to prevent vigilante action. The Hill County sheriff, Fred Long, questioned Washington with Fleming. Washington eventually told them he had killed Fryer following an argument about her mules, and described the murder weapon and its location. Long brought Washington to Dallas, Texas, while Fleming returned to Robinson. Fleming soon reported that he found a bloody hammer where Washington had indicated.
Am I supposed to feel sorry for this murderer? Because I don't.

>In May 1919, two white men, John Dowdy and Levi Evans went into the black section of Milan. They invaded a home and attempted to assault two young black girls. When the two girls attempted to hide under the porch, Dowdy and Evans began ripping up the floor to get to them.[1] Washington, a black man, attempted to defend the girls and get the men to leave. After a struggle, Washington, who was 72 years old, shot and killed Dowdy. Two days later, a crowd of white men, led by a baptist minister,[2] removed Washington from the jail, hung him from a post and shot him repeatedly until his body fell in pieces from the post. White residents rioted in the city, damaging and burning many black homes and threatening any black citizens lest they dare to speak out about the events in public.[3][4]

You're saying that people 100 years ago didn't know no better about not torturing people? This was like 20 years before my grandma was born.
Interesting that no one cares about that when are talking about the aztecs who did their shit more than 500 years go
Liam Price
Because the Aztecs don't exist anymore and we speak of them in the past-tense rather than saying "Look at this thing some American people did 100 years ago! Aren't modern Americans fucked up?".
