It's not the timing, because there is never a good time to say things like this... But a man named Javion Magee was recently found with a rope around his neck in North Carolina.
The town official(s) say it's not a lynching, but (basically) the entire web disagrees. This comes in before it's alleged Mark Robinson was running wild on a pornographic forum:
Writing in a forum discussing Black Republicans in October 2010, Robinson stated unprovoked: “I’m a black NAZI!” --CNN
Is he serious? Or is this a spineless way to gain votes?
