Just curious if you hold the same opinion of the FBI on their civil rights investigations in the 50s and 60s?
Or for that matter do you still hold the same opinion of the FBI when they charge law enforcementwith civil rights violations?

If you read the thread I posted in the thread, we all pretty much came to the conclusion that it was a suicide since he was found 200 yards from his house hung with his own bedsheet.

Mississippi, about half a mile from his home, Jackson-based FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jason Pack said in a statement.

Yea. I'm not an ATS protocol expert but if you think it steps on your post, report it. I won't judge.

I did bud, thats why I stated what I did, a lot of my line of questioning was to make a point...
Great job on that thread BTW
Lynching, or extrajudicial public execution by hanging, was once a common practice in parts of the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. By one estimate, some 3,500 African Americans and 1,300 whites were lynched from 1882 to 1968.
The incident comes seven months after a 17-year-old black male named Lennon Lacy was found hanging from a swing set in North Carolina, in a case local authorities initially ruled a suicide but which the FBI announced in December it was probing as suspicious.
Its pretty much already been sussed out that it was suicide.....
Please explain your conclusion...

Fair enough. Thanks for the compliment. I tried to position that thread when I wrote it to analyze several possibilities. I didn't want to jump straight to the racism angle, though I can understand, given the state that the hanging happened, why the OP jumped to that conclusion. So I don't exactly fault him for it.
Much more information than you posted was posted about the man and his prior arrest record (he was arrested and charged previously with a murder charge).
