This story stems from a millionaire gone bust from gambling addiction who decided to extort riches back from the casino. He built a bomb and got it into the building, then ransomed the organization for $3 million. The FBI documented the mechanisms in great detail — including the 8 independent trigger systems that made it impossible for them to disarm the thing. The design was so nefarious it's still used today as a training tool.

And thousands of Black men were lynched, but only one resulted in a Supreme Court trial.
And lynching tends to be bad... are you suggesting otherwise?

You want a world of equal results? Good luck.
Of course not, I'm not a progressive.
