NAACP calls the execution of Marcellus Williams, a lynching. Here's the back story the NAACP leaves out of their X post. Career criminal Marcellus Williams broke into Felicia Gayle's home on August 11, 1998, to rob her. During the burglary, Marcellus Williams murdered Felicia Gayle by stabbing her 43 times with a butcher knife. Marcellus Williams was arrested for his crime and convicted of murder, and sentenced to death row in 2001. On September 24, 2024, Marcellus Williams was executed.
How is the death of Marcellus Williams a lynching?
Marcellus Williams always claimed he was innocent, and several attempts were made to get him off death row, but they all failed. Again, how is this a lynching?
The NAACP uses the loaded word "lynching" in their post to turn this into a racial issue and miscarriage of justice, but it's not. This isn't about white racism, but the NAACP want's you to believe it is.
A common characteristic of American victim groups is their always working to perpetuate their own victim status. Whether its claims to be linked to the Holocaust or lynchings, it's all meant to stop conversations by creating fear in others. If you challenge them you must be a racist or antisemitic and a bad person. This has to stop.
