26. Look at the letters, there is no shading on the letters as it meets the arms. That indicates it is a

generated photo, BUT NOT that it is a fake one, NO, NOT AT ALL. I believe it was done. And it is used as a valid photographic meme, to drive home point...

For all I know it was the same kind of sick low lifes that were at the White House guffawing and wishing Obama torture by tarring and feathering and death by lynching. They said they wanted it to be slow, to suffer more.

California is not immune to this kind of racism, despite the strides made there. The lynching thing with Obama has been well covered and is used all the time by racists.

But the image could have been used to make a statement in the OTHER direction. Because all of these deaths of black men is NO different from lynch mobs of the past. We can't forget that many lawmen were in the KKK at one time; some probably still are.

And there was a video posted here at DU. It was called ABC Nightline: Inside the New Ku Klux Klan:

Segami posted it in three parts. I've seen the Rand Paul meetings with him surrounded by militia types toting long guns as they call for 'Restoring the Republic' and 'Taking their country back.' That is code for 'restoring' the USA to the way it was before the Civil War. This time, though, with the Koch dollars in full effect, and the division in the country, they just might win.
