I do think about the PATHETIC mostly white people who have cried for 10 years about "free speech" and "cancellation" who are either currently SILENT or avidly applauding what the vigilantes and the GOVERNMENT have and are doing to Ilhan Omar.

“Lynching” in the US is not a singular phenomenon. The lynching you are describing is a “racial terror” lynching. There were “public spectacle lynchings,” which have elements of the former but are not identical. There are also “legal lynchings” which were the summary use of capital punishment.

Think about how long it has been since you first saw headlines about Harvey Weinstein’s violence. Nine years after #MeToo went viral, his case(s) are still working their way through the criminal justice system. This is (one of a long list of reasons) why survivors don’t report.
