They Should Be Lynched: Miss. Lawmaker Karl Oliver on La. Leaders Taking Down Confederate MonumentsKirsten West Savali Yesterday 9:18pm
Miss. State Rep. Karl Oliver says that Louisiana leaders should be lynched for removing Confederate monuments and that he will do everything within his power to make sure that Mississippi does not follow suit.
Oliver represents Money, Miss., the town where domestic terrorists Roy Bryant and J. W. Milam, along with their accomplices, lynched 14-year-old Emmett Till in 1955, reports MississippiToday.org.

Why should anyone who encourages lynchings have any place at all in government? RESIGN!

as long as you are a "christian" Republican terrorist, it would seem.

"Mrs. Guidry, I normally don't return emails that do not request a response, but I found yours so intriguing I simply felt led to respond. I see you are not a native to the Great State of Mississippi nor do you and I have similar political views. [Editor's note: Guidry's Facebook page says she is from Chicago, Ill.] The people of our Great State overwhelmingly share my same or similar views on Government responsibility. I appreciate you going to the trouble to share yours with me, but quite frankly, and with all due respect, I could care less. I would, however, recommend that there are a rather large number of like minded citizens in Illinois that would love to see you return. With warmest personal regards, Karl Oliver"

...Dems can't get over losing.
It's been 152 years, and they are STILL the losers of the Civil War.

...with a memorial, similar to Holocaust memorials, dedicated to all those millions who were victimized and killed by slavery.
