There seems to be no doubt the term "lynching" was derived from a man named "Lynch" who was negatively associated with slavery. There is no mistaking the meaning Aaron Haith ascribed to it when he called Abdul the "grandson of Willie Lynch" regardless of who Willie Lynch actually was. There was similarly never a man called "Zip Coon". It's just a negative caricature of a fictional black man born during the days of slavery in the 1800s.Gary R.

It was ugly and appalling, and I've been shocked at his rise to the head of the Council.<BR/><BR/>He's no good.
