So really you are just advocating Hanging as a punishment for rape? Because 'lynching' by its very nature rarely involves due process, it's a vigilante act. You are being quite flippant about a pretty nasty affair. But yes, let's get back to the iconic photos.

I'm very sorry to hear that. It's not of course something I could possibly have known. All I have to go on are your words on this forum. Your words came across as flippant. That is an iconic image because it depicts the absolute depths of racism to which one country sank.

This photo is of a US soldier, Major Mark Bieger, running a little girl to an army hospital after terrorists attacked his patrol with a car bomb. At the time of the attack a bunch of children were crowded around them.

to be honest, and no i didnt get this from south park but it is true, seeing it as white people hanging black people is bad too. and it does just look like 2 people being hung, not 2 black people being hung.

not sure if this is really an iconic photo but it has meaning to an iconic event
