In a convo about Epstein, I brought up both Epstein and Weinstein, figuring they ran in the same circles, and said "Hang 'em all."
Three days about a minute or two after.
I'll betcha that if someone said the same about Trump and Desantis that it would be ignored.

I tried that and received automated messages asking if I was suicidal

Don't you know "hanging" is "racist" and only was invented and used to hang POC?

Should have posted that under the name H.R.Clinton

I first read that as "FBI jail". :O

^ So did I.
Grave tactical error: Your assumption of fair play, honor, and reasonable ethics in these matters.
I would not take your bet on that one.

I've been harangued on that same talking point here. (https://www.armedpolitesociety.com/index.php?topic=15800)
Different locales, different takes on it. While westerners see it as something done to horse thieves because sheriffs and judges are few and far between and a giant pain in the ass, southerners see it as a Klan terror tactic during Reconstruction and Jim Crow.

...and it goes WELL back before either of those! People have been hanging criminals for about 2500 years!!!
Hanging is thought to have originated as a method of judicial execution in Persia about 2500 years ago for male criminals. It was brought to England by the Saxons in the fifth century AD. Britain has used many forms of capital punishment over the centuries. (http://www.capitalpunishmentuk.org/origins.html)
