at 0:13 the lynched man is wearing the exact same uniform as all the bastards smiling and posing below him. it looks like he was a student of some sort. this is so sick. i cannot believe that CHILDREN could pose underneath this and laugh, not terrified or scared of the dead body above them. what the fuck is wrong with all these people? this is why i will never move down south. only ever lived in L.A., N.Y. and Wash D.C. , i think ill keep it that way in the US.
