How our elected officials are spending their time.

What world do these fools live in?  An anti-lynching bill?  What a joke considering all the real problems that should be addressed.  "Conservative" GOP Senator Tim Scott is a clown and a fraud.

Cory Booker Points to Jussie Smolletâ€s Attack for Why Congress Must Pass Anti-Lynching Law

Nigel Roberts, NewsOne, February 14, 2019

The U.S. Senate passed an anti-lynching bill on Thursday, which was announced by Sen. Kamala Harris, one of the three senators who introduced the measure in 2018.

“Our anti-lynching bill, which would make lynching a federal crime, just unanimously passed the Senate. {snip}

Now that the Democrats have a majority in the House, the anti-lynching bill that the Senate passed Thursday will likely sail through the House without any problems. The final stop will be President Trumpâ€s desk for signature. Booker dispelled any notion that there was no need for an anti-lynching law in the 21st century.

“The vicious attack on actor Jussie Smollett was an attempted modern-day lynching,” Booker tweeted in January.” Iâ€m glad heâ€s safe. To those in Congress who donâ€t feel the urgency to pass our Anti-Lynching bill designating lynching as a federal hate crime– I urge you to pay attention.”

The Senateâ€s vote in December was historic because it was the first time that senators passed an anti-lynching bill after almost 200 failed attempts over more than a century. During that time, the House passed several anti-lynching bills only to have them die in the Senate.

The Senateâ€s three Black senators—Harris, Booker and Republican Sen. Tim Scott—introduced the Justice for Victims of Lynching Act of 2018 in June. It calls for a life prison sentence for those found guilty on federal anti-lynching charges.

The Senate bill underscores statistics — including that more than 4,700 people were lynched between the years 1882 and 1968 — supported by research compiled by Tuskegee University, according to NPR. About 75 percent of the victims were African-Americans while “99 percent of all perpetrators of lynching escaped from punishment by state or local officials.”

Booker and these clowns are looking to gain political points off this hoax.  Pathetic.  When was the last time a person was lynched?

Lemme guess. It doesn't count as a lynching if the victim is White?

Passed the Senate unanimously.  Gutless GOP cucks strike again.
